Well it is that time of year when me and 7 of my other friends are planning our annual UP trip. Last year we had a few issues. Everyone has different riding preferences and experience so I want to try to plan a route that can cater to everyone. Maybe a little powder riding. Friends bought shovels this year. We are looking at doing a Grand Marias loop on friday. We are arriving on friday so we are keeping ride a little shorter. On Saturday and Sunday we are planning on riding around 150-200 miles a day. One friend mentioned wanting to go to Castle rock. I was considering heading toward Gwinn/Arnold then west toward Sagola then up to big bay and back to Au train. Share your ideas and give trail numbers if you can. maybe where to eat along the way. I really like riding USFS trails and roads less travelled. The more info the better off we will be. Trying to have a fun relaxing weekend. I don't mind trailering to a good riding spot either from Au Train.

I have ridden with a few guys out of Sagola and up to Big Bay on the loop-makes for a great ride. I would say that it will cover a variety of trail conditions with a few palces to go off trail and play. As I am not from the area though, I don't have more information. I will try to get it and post.
