Wow. Most sleds would have trouble with that unless they were dedicated deep snow sleds. You have a lot of work on your hands there.

Yeah I would say that a 340 with a, what, 121 inch track probably isn't exactly ideal for powder like that.

a 116" track acutually lol

A couple of trips over the trail with snowshoes would give you a bit of a base. Sounds like work, but how hard do you work when you get stuck

I would love to. I don't have a sled up here, though, because I live in Millinocket, I just go to school up here at the MSSM. I think we're gonna have a few more weeks of good riding with all this snow. Maybe I can borrow a sled from some friends I have up here though.

Well when I first started to carve, u stop, than lean and pinner. Im a bigger guy so I barely use the grab bar, just yank on the left grip and push down on the bottom grip. Sometimes its easier to keep one leg on each side of the sled to prevent falling/loosing grip.
