Finally got some snow - Snowmobile Forum: Your #1 Snowmobile Forum

Over the past two days we probably got about a foot of snow. So today I gassed up the machine and decided to look for some powder. Man do I wish I had thought to bring my camera! Some spots were over waist deep! I only got stuck once, I kind of hit a dead end and couldn't turn or back out. Then my brother got so stuck on his Tundra that we had to pretty much pick it up and set it on some snow I packed down in front of it. Driving on the lake felt like boating. Just the most ridiculous fun ever. We were only out for like 1.5 hours, but every last piece of clothing I had on was soaked by the time we got home. Truly good riding today, too bad I can't spend more time on the machine...I should drop out of school or something

That's nothing! The stuff down here is almost up to my ankle!!! I would take the sled out but I'm afraid I'll get stuck so often that it wouldn't be worth it. I'm headed up to parry sound this weekend so hopefully they got dumped on aswell! Sounds like you had fun

Don't forget the "hill".

Wish I could share with you guys...we got even more today. It's a pain to shovel, but so worth it when even in town there's a ton of powder to be had, nevermind in the bush. I'm kinda pissed we're getting the real good stuff now as opposed to the last two months when I would have actually had time to do some serious riding, but its better than waiting until next December

according to a bunch of club sites up there there isn't much and they have no base.
