    New sled RANT

    Powder junkie, in your first thread you said the 08 XP was a flop. In the thread above you say the 900 had some minor flaws. I have owned both sleds. I rode Polaris for 20 years. The XP was a very good machine. All the issues it had were covered by warranty. The 900 was the worst machine...

    New sled RANT

    I'll take a new sled over the old ones anyday as well, but bragging about how light a sled is that breaks without even hitting stuff makes no sense to me. I'm glad the XP got a little heavier after 08. I bet the Polaris will next year too. Maxwell you really need to find better things to do than...

    New sled RANT

    In the 80s and 90s I could run over a 3" diameter tree and use it for traction. These new light weight sleds are useless if they break instead of the trees. I'm not talented enough to avoid them all. Bumpers should be for bumping stuff. Unfortunately ALL the new flickable sleds are nearly...

    His buddies probably told him "when in doubt, pin it". I bet he slept well that night

    Castle mountain riding

    Ride this area lots. Lots of traffic over the holidays. The trail just keeps getting worse as the year goes on. A groomer is as common as a Sasquatch in this area. Some people report seeing one, but no one believes them. It would be nice to have some fresh snow. There's a good base, but still...

    Need some frigging NHL hockey soon

    Let the millionaires fight with the billionaires over our hard earned dollars. When they get it all figured out, we the fans should hold out for 50% off ticket prices. Then we can afford more $8 beers. Go juniors!

    Sooooo........anyone weigh the new sleds yet?

    Maybe you guys should ride a 4 stroke for a year. They make all the 2 strokes from the last 20 years feel really light. I'm still waiting for the perfect sled. 450 lbs, 220hp, and warranty. Until then, all these numbers don't mean much... But I still read em every year again

    Castle ski hill

    I share your concerns. On Saturday there was a group of 10 climbing the big hill above the water falls just before the oil site. They spent the whole day there, and part of the cornice even came down. That hill is not safe in moderate to low avy conditions. It slides every year, and usually...

    Avalanche video from yesterday near Golden

    Thanks for taking the time to video and post. This area as well as many of the others had dropped from high to considerable avy rating. That can give a false sense of "safer conditions". Obviously the persistent weak layers are becoming a problem. Better play it safe out there. If you're not...

    what?

    Why do people ask questions when they already know the answers? Never mind, I already know.:p

    Lucky Guy....

    Lucky Guy....

    Unfortunately been there done that (2005). Fortunately I also can still talk about it. It happens fast, with no time to get scared, just react. In my case there were trees at the bottom that I managed to miss, and many of them got buried. I took my AST1 the next year. BIG eye opener...

    wow

    In general, most people are listening to cac bulletins, and many have taken avy courses. If not we would be reading about dozens of fatalities. Our group cancelled our trip Saturday because of the SPAW. We could have played in the "safe" areas, but I and some of the others would be tempted to...

    BOSS seat for the 2012 Pro-Climb/Pro-Cross Chassis. Tell us what you think!!!

    I think I should test this seat. I'm 340, and if it stands up, I would gladly tell all. However, being tall I would like a seat a couple inches higher.

    Why does my little 2006 M7 Arctic Cat 162" STOMP the 2008 SkiDoo XP 800 154"

    Re: Why does my little 2006 M7 Arctic Cat 162" STOMP the 2008 SkiDoo XP 800 154" I can't believe it. I bought a turbo 4 stroke so I could beat the 800s. All I needed was a M7. Stupid me, what was I thinking. I could have saved a bunch of money too. I should have paid more attention to the...
