How warm is it there? It's getting warm here too, wondering if I will get to ride one last time next weekend too? If it goes it was fun while it lasted I guess.

I don't wanna hear it. I'm glad I woke up to 8 degrees this morning and some accumulation in the forecast. I'm not ready for it to be over! I should have at least another month before I have to get the trailer and go up north.

How much further North do you have to go in Alaska to actually go Up North? As far as I'm concerned,from where I live to where you are,you are Up North! It's somewhat funny to hear someone so far north say that they may need to go North yet. It's 40 degrees and raining here now,winter is officially over around Green Bay,never really started,sucks around here the last couple years and I am starting to believe it will never be like it use to be around here. You people out west or in Alaska don't know how good you have it for snow. At least you get some,a bad year for you would be a great year for us!

well it's not really a matter of going up north...it's more of a going up in elevation. About a 3 hr trip minimum to get to some of the better places that have high snow depths during the year. But I'm not complaining by any means when I can do this just a few miles behind my house I'll continue to count my blessings
