I thought that to get things going I would posts some "tourist" pics my wife and I snapped on a quick trip to Mackinac Island.

As always, the Club does not endorse crossing the Ice Bridge, check local conditions before venturing onto frozen water.

The first are crossing, and the golf course.

And Arch Rock, on the Eastern side, from above and below.

A little strange to see the Grand Hotel like this.

I just found this thread, and I just realized I posted a copy cat pic in the one I started.

Hey, you still have those two sleds? I have a BRAND NEW belt from my 97 MXZ 670. If it will fit, it's yours...no cost. I can drop it somewhere next time I cross the bridge :thumb:

Yep, stopping in the middle of the straits is required if it is your first trip across. The wife was really really mad at me when I did that.

Still have those sleds, might get new machines next year, but this years rides will be on those. Our office is 200' North of the groomer in St. Igance, I am there most of the time.

Neil, I will contact you when I know I am going to be in the area for sure.

How did you get so close to the Grand Hotel? Must be a local thing. I didn't see any sleds that close when I was there.

You can sneak under the canopy from the West, you have to go up and over to get there, then you come out under the canopy, and can come areas the front. The last pics are from the garden area, you have to go through the trees to get there, not sure if you area supposed to do that, but I did!

Thanks for the offer of the bent, just let me know when you are around!
