New From HWY 88 Northern California

Hi all, I am a proud new owner of a couple of older Ski Doo's, a 96 Formula SL 500 and a 98 MXZ 500, along with a tilt trailer, all thanks to Santa (AKA My Father in law). Both sleds are in exceptional shape and have been well cared for. I have ridden many sleds in the past but these are the first I will call my own. I have heard of a few snow parks up HWY 88, Hope Valley and Iron Mountain, and will most likely be headed there first to get used to the sleds. I am sure I will be needing this forum soon, as I love to mod things and am confident in doing most mechanical work.

Thanks,

Eric

Yep, Iron Mountain is a great place, I was actually there this weekend, snow was a little on the hard side, but you were able to go anywhere, especially with my short track and small lugs.
