Jerry,
I am thinking along the same lines, It looks like the wind will be better in the AM, I may have trouble getting up that early, I will look into staying up there Sat night. Shoot me an Email to let me know where you will be launching.

Reddy Creek should work for E/SE winds. I favor the launch for it's a few miles from the public launch which means little, if any snowmobile traffic. Also, wide open space of riding w/o fish houses. A plus will be the the 4' ice fracture, which should line up well for a kicker. :P The fracture also has some low spots for crossing w/o air over into that slice of Yee Haa! :)

Let's ridE

Like Jerry said... The Ready Creek area is one of the best places.

No one will mess with you. Have fun out there...

Is Cannon an option at all? They are in line to get around 4 to 7 inches of snow and more wind than Brainerd.

Jerry,
With the new forcast of 4" of snow here locally and the promise of wind only in the early AM I am planning on staying here this weekend, and getting in an early session at my cabin on Sugar Lake or Buffalo or if you decide to stay local, you could suggest an alternative?

Miss you guys too. Still working on an ankle I blowed out last summer in the gorge. I was skate sailing with some rad folks Tyson Poor and Wyatt Miller at the event site in the dark. I fell off my skateboard weird and that was the end of my summer. I'm hoping to be back out there again in June.
