Almost that time of the Year!!

Let the snow fly, my build is about 2 weeks away from being done! Screw Cars for the Winter, Snowmobiles is where its at! If you have never gotten to ride one, I feel so very bad for you. I'd probably hang myself if I lived in an area with snow and no riding.

Enjoy!

we were out there skiing, and decided to take a day off and go snowmobiling... we followed a guide through some trail riding, ...but they also took us to a nice powder meadow where you could really open it up, ...snow was quite deep there, and you'd really whip up the snow! ...

...one funny thing i remember is on one of the trails one of the people in our group clipped a large rock w/ the front ski, which turned them over and dismounted both riders, ..they were lying on the ground, ..didn't look to good, ..well the guide whipped around and came over, gets off, goes up to the dismounted riders, ...first thing out of his mouth "did you guys happen to get the insurance package?.."

:lol:

:lmao: Now thats funny right there :lol:

Rocks can be deadly in the Mountains. Usually trails don't need to worry about them.....USUALLY is the key word.

yeah, .but the rock was alongside the "trail" in a flat, relatively open area... don't know how those folks managed to clip it... it was big, ..but snowcovered..

looks like some nice pow there! i remember in jackson hole, WY they do an annual event where they have "king of the hill" competition, ...they hold it at the snow king resort, on a steep face - they try to run up as high as they can w/out stalling out, rolling, etc.. there were nets placed in areas to hopefully catch one that gravity gets the better of!!! it's something to see - they are nuts!
:D

You just gained 1000000 internet points for using the word "POW" thats what us pros (Wanna be pros :lol: ) call it. For only riding once I can see you are a fast learner :cheers:

thanks, i feel i gotta know the snow-sports parlance to do it right ;)

..."stoked", ."pow", .."pow-pow", ..."rippin", "grinding", ...

BTW, if i remember correctly the folks who clipped their sled on the rock didn't have the insurance... :lol:

The way nun's bend now a days with the use of aluminum, I bet that could have easily became a totaled sled :(

About time?

Snowed on me 1 1/2 months ago. :D

I figured that Mr. Luos, you probably have ft of snow :( The 2nd video I posted was taken from Colorado and it looked plentiful. I would love to ride out there but my current sled isn't designed for that terrain. I'd be stuck in seconds :lmao:

Where I am....we have gotten about 16" total so far this year. Eight twice.
Nothing is left, although where I will be in a week from now.....ski season is beginning. Breckenridge opens Friday.

60-65 degrees a few days this week. The Denver area jumps around a ton.

I could only dream of having that type of weather :drool:

I could also see it becoming irritating after some time though too on the other hand. Gotta give a little to get a little :D

...don't know if i'll make it out west to ski this season or not... so, far leaning to NOT because trying to preserve cash, ...and looking to buy a new vehicle real soon... the 'ole ski group is going to steamboat this time around, ...one of my all time favs (true chest deep pow experience there - December 2003) :D

Ha. I'm just now getting out my motorcycle as it's finally cool enough to ride w/o sweating bullets.
