    The Season in Review with Pictures

    It was a fantastic year in Northern MN. We had rideable snow from 12/15 thru now. Still planning to go this weekend and a late April ride. Throw in a trip to Utah and it was another good year with 0 mechanical issues!

    How many miles did you put on this season?

    I ended the year at about 1200 miles on my sled, pretty equally split between just riding from home and from the cabin. Fantastic conditions in both spots. Then there was also maybe 200 miles in Utah.

    How many miles did you put on this season?

    The stucks get to be a lot more work when the kids are on mtn sleds. Last year in West Yellowstone a couple of them had me worried when it was just my son and I. He feels we'll eventually dig out of anything, and he's probably right, but my tired old butt would be fine avoiding some of them.

    Northshore conditions?

    Rode the north shore over the weekend and it was excellent. Lots of snow, will be good for a month yet. Rode northern Carlton Cty on Wednesday and it was very good also.

    Snowfall totals by City?

    Yeah, not all places are reporting. I was actually surprised the total snowfall at mine wasn't higher based on the snow on the ground. That reporting station, Wolf Ridge ELC, is about 1 mile from my cabin on the same ridgeline so I'm guessing it's accurate.

    Northshore conditions?

    I rode the Iron River/Bayfield County area on Saturday and it was excellent. Lots of snow and lots of trails and lots of forest roads to ride. We used to ride in that area all the time and it's always been good. Regarding the north shore, it's in great condition. 4' of snow on the ground near...

    Those weather folks……

    A friend who has a cabin near mine in Finland has 50" on his snow stake right now. I have 34" on the ground at my house. We'll be riding into late April again. And they are calling for a bunch this Friday also.

    A non snowmobiling post

    We rented a golf cart to get around. She must’ve rented a scooter. Hard to drink while driving a scooter and I have yrs of experience drinking while driving a golf cart. Just not usually on roads.

    My sons adventure

    Yep, we've been making sure he has the right gear. Last couple of christmas's we've outfitted him with a beacon and a Avy bag, probes, survival kit, etc... But you can have all the proper gear in the world and shit can go wrong so it was good to see he kept his cool and stayed smart.

    My sons adventure

    So my son lives out in Butte MT and was out snowmobiling the previous saturday with some friends by Anaconda, MT. They were starting to head in and he looked at his Onyx app and thought it showed they could connect to the trail by dropping down a steep slope into a bowl area. So he had his...
