Yeah, the drive sucks. Its just under 16 hours for me, 1060 miles.

Just got back from West Yellowstone where I spent a week riding with my son. He's going to college at Montana Tech in Butte so we met for his spring break. While the snow wasn't over the hood deep except for a couple meadows we got into we had a great time. He's a tight trees type of guy while I...

I had a great year. Only got about 1500 miles on but they were quality miles. Snow on the north shore was excellent and the off trail got to be fantastic. Just got back from 6 days in West Yellowstone with my son and we had a great time.

My company, Altec, produces truck mounted utility equipment so at any given location around the country we may have hundreds of chassis on the ground. The amount of catalytic converters we have to replace is ridiculous. We've just discovered 9 trucks with them missing at my location, its going...

Also leaving for West Yellowstone for a week on Saturday to meet my son. When we planned this back in Oct we weren't planning on $4/gallon gas. Luckily I'm just throwing my sled in the back of my truck so I'm not pulling the big enclosed trailer.

Get well soon John!

As far as I know there's no time restrictions for them as far as access to that trail. And within 2-5 miles there's 50-100 miles of unplowed forest roads to run on. Again, I have no problem with them using the trails and I enjoy seeing them but I feel that was a bad day to be out on that...

I'm not defending the snowmobiler in any way here but these dog sledders need to think about when they are on trails. A couple weekends ago we were riding the northshore state trail and it was a mad house with snowmobilers. I'd never seen so many sleds on that trail and then we came across two...

Started our kids at 1 and 2 in a snow coach, then 2 & 3 we got a 120. They also rode in front of us on our sleds for 1000+ miles per year. As they got a bit older they were doing most of the driving while my wife and I just held on. Then we added a Supersport and a XC500 to the fleet as the kids...

I can't explain why he said what he said. False optimism?? Misled by suppliers? Every manufacturer is disappointing customers right now, my industry is no different. Its obviously not just Polaris, every sled manufacturer is having the same issue. I can understand the venting and frustration and...

Its easy to say the manufacturers should have know but being a materials manager for a large manufacturing company I can tell you its dang near impossible. Your suppliers tell you a date for Jan 5th and you ask them on 1/1 if its still on target and they tell you now its 4/5. And there are...

We are going to be out there in early march and while we'll be riding our own sleds outside the park my wife wanted to do the park tour. I started calling in Oct and every place in West Yellowstone was already booked for the winter. Couldn't believe it. If you find somebody with openings...

All I know is I have tickets so Go Pack Go!! We went two years ago to the playoff game against Seattle and it was also a night game. It started to snow in the 4th qtr so that just made it more fun. Except for driving in bumper to bumper traffic at 35 MPH all the way back to wausau where we were...

If you wanted to ride the north shore and were driving up from IL I'd go as far as two Harbors. Couple of decent resorts and hotels right on the trail system. Another 40 minutes would get you to the Silver Bay area which would put you a little more central to the trails. If you were to come that...

Near us in Aitken County there was two kids, 16 and 18 I believe, killed in a head on crash on a trail. So sad. Lets be safe out there.

That makes so much sense if you’re only going to ride a few times per yr. Avoid the huge upfront costs, insurance costs, maintenance. If I lived down in the southern part of the Midwest and only made it up for a week per yr I’d just rent.

Kelly, it fricken cold. Yesterday I think it was about -10 all day, we rode mostly in the Isabella area. Today it’s supposed to get above zero but waiting until about noon to go out. Yesterday morning I went to start my sled and the e start just laughed at me. Trying to even pull it over was a...

Got up to the cabin near Finland and there’s plenty of snow. The local clubs are are just starting to whip them into shape. Yesterday the local Moosewalk trails and Finland trails were all being groomed, the Tomahawk trail was perfect, and hopefully last night the NSST was getting groomed. Went...

Heading to the cabin on the north shore on wednesday. Can't wait!

Very nice!
