A Northern Retreat
Hey everyone,
Over the past couple weeks I have been trying to plan an event for us here in the Northern reaches of the MWC. I am attempting this as a way to allow those in this neck of the woods to get together especially since there’s a few of us that didn’t get the WF OH-10 experience. Here is what I have so far…
Late spring early summer, I would like to have an event hosted at Northwoods Overland. (www.northwoodsoverland.com) Located near Rib Lake WI, off of Highway 102, on Spirit Lake. This is a new park which has been trying very hard to provide an off-roading experience in an area which doesn’t offer much to the public. The park has trails ranging from beginner up to ‘Tight & Technical’ including several ‘scramble areas’. Currently the park is only open certain weekends of the season:
May 28-31
June 11-13
June 25-17
July 2-5
September 3-6
September 17-19
I have been in contact with Jeremy, the owner, who has said that if we have a group large enough to require 10 or more campsites, they will open the park up just for us on a weekend other than the ones stated, if they aren’t busy with personal events.
Trail passes are priced as follows:
$20 per vehicle/day
$25 per vehicle/weekend
Camping priced as follows:
Camping is $14 per night for non-electric sites and $20 per night for electric sites.
From Jeremy, ‘Group discounts are available for those camping and using the trails. If you take 3-9 campsites, we'll give you 50% off a weekend trail pass for every vehicle in your group. For 10 or more campsites we offer 75% off a weekend trail pass for every vehicle in the group.’
So I guess what I am asking is if anyone is interested in possibly doing this? If not I won’t continue to plan further, otherwise I plan on spending more time on getting this all set up with some possible help for the experienced guys/gals who run WF…

) One day I will try to make it up that way. Never been to WI myself.
