Talking Best ride ever
Mid march they closed the trails due to lack of snow. There was still a ice base, then on march 29th it snowed 5 inches and they opened up the trails one last time. Because there was so little snow they didn't groom the trails. I got up at 7:00 to go. I got out there and not one person had been on the trail. I rode for hours without even seeing one track. That day i rode 281 miles of pure powder. It was the best ride of my life.

SO i was wondering what you guys thought of this ride?

I love being the first to ride a trail. What a great experience! Quite a few miles you put on!

That would have been sweet. Only thing that would of made it better was if my Snowmobileforum buddies were riding with me.
