Very typical Clowder weather.

WE have suffered our first *Long distance* charter member, Towing related, failure. Attendee is safe, disaster averted. Great job keeping the dirty side down.

Clowder Guys, Our forecast for driving on Friday looks atrocious so I'm sad to announce I'll need to cancel our trip to Ironwood. At least you folks will have good snow to play in but heavy snow and wind are not my favorite things to be driving in!! Its really snowing hard here in Houghton now. Hope you have fun and please post photos.

At least we're finally getting a good dump. But no fun to drive. See ya next year.

Nice job everyone-so much behind the scenes prep
Thanks for sharing all the photos
Until next year!!

Here's a flashback as to how it stated back in 2014.
Just a few random guys looking to play with their "cool toys."
I am so Happy they did
Perhaps you may know them . . . .

We had an awesome time. Put 2700 miles on the truck and probably 50? on the cat. I really appreciate everyone making us feel so welcome. We will definitely be back next year, hopefully with 2 in tow.

I love that shot out of Sharon's. ( it caused me the most concern ) why you ask? Well In a typical year, the dinner program is kind of viewed as the finish line. after crossing the finish line all that cookie or donut spinning that happened down by the trailers........( you might have missed it )
Just imagine that in the village. or down town Hurley. The city stepped up for us but drifting snowcats might have been a little much......
