    Snowmobile Jackets

    FXR has good options and ranks most all of their gear with a warmth number... 9 being the warmest (not sure why 10 isn't. LOL!). They also have a Factory Outlet in the Forest Lake, MN area if that is close to you for trying things on. Good luck!

    Anybody gearing up for the opener?

    Got a reliable source that sent a pic of Spooner, WI area last night. Solid 8" I'd say. Decent start considering the calendar hasn't flipped to December just yet!!!!

    Funny you mention the long ride to get to the state trail. That was a frustration for us as well. The last night, we got back late and were riding the ditches in the dark to get back. My kid rolled his little 340. Not really rolled it, but came down a ditch too fast and one ski hit a small...

    Anybody gearing up for the opener?

    Great story. Reminds me of the time me and my buddies decided to head up for a skiing trip (before any of us knew what sleds were) at 1am in a SEVERE ice & fog storm. Similar to you, we had planned to leave in the morning but couldn't sleep so we packed up an loaded up. There were so many...

    Black Friday gear sales?

    Snowbigdeal.com typically has some decent deals. Back in the day, First Place Parts had some un-real deals, but have gone to more standard % off for the most part.

    A couple that come to mind... Ezra, PolarisRider1 (or something like that) - He had the most posts of any member. It was a big deal when he was about to hit his 10,000th post. LOL! And of course Polaris Dan. I met and have ridden with two of the three. Miss seeing their comments on the site.

    One Arm Snowmobiling

    Just throwing this out there... A guide out at Togwotee Mountain Lodge has the same situation and might be a good one to bounce ideas off of. Interestingly enough, they call him "Lefty." But yes, they do make finger throttles to put on the left side of the bars. Goldfinger Lefty Throttle is...

    Anybody get new tires and installation at walmart?

    I'm also a fan of the Michelin tires. Have them on two vehicles in the family. Great all-season tires. There are some bad ones such as the Primacy's that come stock on some F150s. Those do suck. But aside from those, Michelin tires are excellent.

    That is true. In town, no problem, but once you get out there not a lot of options. Def would not pass a station without topping off.

    Anybody get new tires and installation at walmart?

    I've heard some pretty bad stories about Walmart auto centers. Wouldn't recommend it. Discount Tire is an awesome tire company. They do nothing but tire and wheels, so work very hard to earn your business. They will match and often times beat any ad you bring them, even Amazon or Ebay prices.

    We were there over Christmas break 2018 and riding was real good. They get the same "lake effect" snow as the UP. I was tipped off to the area by someone in this group --- Similar snow conditions, little if any traffic on the trails and less time in the truck vs. UP. We might be going back...

    North shore cabins suggestions

    Superior Shores is decent. Directly on the trail system, yes. They have condo type units that are pretty large (link below). If you stay in the lodge units, make sure to connect with the main resort or you have to ride your sled 1/4 mile down the trail to get to your hotel. Much better...

    Who's Going???

    The land outside and around Hay Days is all private property. I'd imagine they pay their mortgage for the entire year just from this event. They will be there working their property and will let you in to park overnight (again, off premise, just outside of the Hay Days gates). BUT... You...

    Who's Going???

    Every year it amazes me of all the stuff I need. My wife is even more amazed that after all these years there is still stuff I "need." HA! This year will be different for me as my kid is getting to go for the very first time. It will make sleeping in the truck (to get a good spot by the gates)...
