I thought that might be a ATV route. We came threw there sat. and I never really noticed it before but we gave directions to some riders in goodman to get to wabeno and I think thats why I noticed it:shrug:Hope they did not go that way:eek:Funny when you ride an area so often you dont really see these things.

I made that same mistake the first weekend, I normally come from the south but we came from the north to from Armstrong and it was dark and I saw the orange arrow to the left and not the small yellow arrow to the right. After you turn left I knew we were on the wrong trail because there are no trail blazers, which you do see if you follow the yellow turn. I found out this year that Forest county uses yellow corner markers not orange

My first time down that route I made the wrong turn and ended up next to the water tower in Goodman comes out right by the mill! and when we went back I really didn't see the trail sign! bad signage or old age????:shrug:

Exactly Correct. It is an ATV route. Peshtigo River Rd East, turns into Porcupine Lake Rd, and comes out in Goodman.

And thanks, that reminds me...

I rode South this morning, and noticed our 100 Mile Snow Safari signs are missing! :eek: There is an orange ATV arrow that points to the East, but our 100 Miler Arrow, Brown Road Sign, and the sign post itself-- are missing!! :shrug:

This will be corrected ASAP.

[QUOTE=BackRoads Pub;11062]bad signage or old age????:shrug:[/QUOTE]throw in missing signs, and I'd say a combination of all three! :p but there's never a good excuse for poor service in my book! ;) and we hope to have that little snafu all dialed up in the near future. :cool:

Missing signs

This may be the same corner where someone kept stealing the street sign that said Nowhwere Rd pole and all (at least 3 times) The town ended up changing the street name to Camp Six Loop. I don't know whether that will help or not. Other signs have been damaged etc.

I still remember the time a kid got lost while riding his bike around 'Camp Six Loop' when it was called Nowhere Rd. When asked where he came from, he replied "No Where". It took a few minutes and a phone call, to figure that one out. But we got him back safely. Dropped him off just around the corner, so he could ride back. ;)

I did manage to get down there this morning and put up an orange arrow there, and another orange arrow on the stop ahead sign post, just before that intersection.
