I'M FROM 'DA RANGE

Good Evening All!!!!

This has nothing to do with snowmobiling or the cabin but I thought perhaps the 'Rangers out there would enjoy this....and for all those that might wonder what a 'Ranger is all about!!!!

after a great week end at the cabin.

MIDDLE PHOTO: Looking west from Camp Six access on the Stony Spur Trail. Travel about 13.5 miles west of this site to Babbitt, travel about 13 east of this site and you will intersect the Tomahawk Trail at Mattila Shelter. If you choose to go north at the shelter its about 24 miles to Winton and Ely. If you choose to head south from the shelter its 21 miles the Yukon Trail junction and 28 miles to Isabella. Stop in at the Happy Wanderer on your way!!

"RELAXING AT CAMP SIX"

Our guests are pretty relaxed after a nice day
at the cabin. The guys went fishing the next morning. Ate well and played cribbage!!!!!

FROZEN TUNDRA

It was -32 pulling out of the driveway this morning!!! Embarrass
had -40....not so nice for sledding, however, don't be dismayed-it will warm up for our long weekend!!!
The Embarrass Firemen are holding a chili feed on Saturday the 16th on the trail!!!

Dean fished a bit for crappies on Saturday....with the cold temps and howling wind it wasn't fit for man nor beast!

We still have openings, give us a call at 218.827.3759.

below and perhaps you'll find something of interest!!

Check out the site below for a fun filled Winter Blast!!
All proceeds go to United Way. One would most likely want to stay in
the Tower area or at Fortune Bay if you are participating in this ride
and staying for the evening events, however, if you were just going for the day
CAMP SIX RETREAT is the place to stay!!!!
