With the bomb cyclone dumping tons of snow in North Dakota curious if anyone on DOOTalk rides the NE portion of North Dakota near Grand Forks. Son goes to school at UND and I’m wondering if a road trip to sled and visit my son is in order for this weekend. It’s a 1200 mile round trip but if trail system is good I’ll be be able to sled with my son. Any advice on trail system would be appreciated.

IMO, North Dakota near UND will be mostly ditch riding and not too exciting, however an opportunity to get out and see your son will probably be worth it.

Check the Manitoba section in Canada division on hardcoresledder. Few guys up there go back and forth across border.

I graduated from UND in '07. The trail system consists of a few miles on nice trails on either side of the Red River, the rest is a trail groomed in the FLAT OPEN ditches for miles and miles and miles. If your looking for an excuse to visit your son, go for it, but the riding doesn't have the terrain your used to in WI.
Another for more scenic trail riding would be 1 1/2hrs northwest towards Walhalla, ND which has a variety of bluffs, woods and rolling hills.

On your way up stop and ride in the Iron Range, MN. One of my favorites.
