Mesabi Mountain Trail - Gilbert, MN
 

Did some wheeling this weekend, not as good or as many pix as I would have liked, but I can't take my own wheeling, and I wasn't hopping in and out all day for others - ha!

Mesabi Mountain Trail in Gilbert, MN. It's been open for years, but I just recently heard about it. I had been to the Iron Range OHV Park several times, and this is just down the road. Glad we hit it, solid run.

Would have been nicer had I put the new rubber on, was super wet, slick, snowy...but I got where I needed to. Smashed my exhaust, other than that it was a decent day.

It was beautiful when I left home in the afternoon

i love wheelin ... i love snow ... i HATE wheeling in the snow.

now there is a slight caveat to that, if the snow is in fact the obstetrical it's good again. like going out what was a road, but now has 5ft of snow packed by snow mobiles.

Looks like a good time. I have wanted to go to Gilbert for years.

It was a good time, snow and all.
