Yeah I am looking forward to this trip...I guess I may as well come out Wednesday night as well!...Its been a while since we all rode together...should be good...maybe silent pass and silver mines..after we get the sleds out?

Are you going to ride with us?? Give me a call when you get off the plane..

Hey guys don't forget to take some pictures. If those photo's were to say get in the hands of a newspaper or magazine like say Sno Riders West it may come across that snowmobilers are a responsible and caring bunch. If you know what I mean......;);)

Hoping everything went well today and everyone is safe. Not expecting miracles here, if the weather or snow conditions arent't cooperating, hopefully there will be other days to try. Brenda

Today we got the last of the four sleds. It went well, as far as digging. The sun come out so there are a few red faces. Of the 2 sleds dug out today one ran and the other didn't. Needless to say the sled that didn't was a bitch to pull out of there. Here are some photo's from the past two days. These pictures are from day one...more to follow.
