TWO WHEEL DRIVE?

[northerndirt]

anybody know if I can get over Pine ok with two wheel drive truck? would like to bring the nephew up for the day, but kinda leary about the snow

I haven't been over Pine since last W/E but some of our people said they had to wait while a 4-wheel drive got pulled out of the sand (on the island) this week.<P>I am always suprised to see 2-wheel drive vehicles out there & have pulled a couple out myself but you will probably not be the only one. If you go, stay close to the road & don't be the last guy off at night!<P>Good Luck!

I wouldnt recomend a 2 wheel drive up there. I wouldnt drive a 1 wheel wonder on any lake.

The thing about 2 wheel drive over Pine is<BR>how tough it can be to get over Pine Island<BR>in that soft sand. <P>At Morris Point you drive right onto the<BR>lake from the resort, a real sweet deal.<P>If I HAD to use a 2 wheel drive I would<BR>go onto the lake at Morris Point and <BR>stay real near the road.<P>------------------<BR>Curt Quesnell<BR>NorthCountry Outdoors Radio

Curt<P>Do you have any idea when resort roads will be opening officially? I understand there are a lot of vehicles already driving on the ice. Morris Point, Zipple Bay or Adrians roads?<BR>Hope to get up next tue if I can drive out.<BR>Any info appreciated.<BR><P>------------------<BR>ccat

I guess the roads will open for traffic<BR>when the people who maintain the roads<BR>feel that all areas they put the roads<BR>on are ready.<P>That may sound vague but while you might <BR>have 15 inches of ice off of Pine Island<BR>you may have 7 inches in the front of <BR>the Lighthouse and Morris Point Gaps.<P>Zipples road is open now and Morris Point<BR>is plowing a main road and they are collecting the very worth it 5 bucks so I<BR>think they are open too. Adrians cant be<BR>far behind.<P> <BR><P>------------------<BR>Curt Quesnell<BR>NorthCountry Outdoors Radio

Thanks Curt<BR>The 5 or 6 bucks is well worth the cost as you know the resort would not send people out on an unsafe road.<P>------------------<BR>ccat
