At least he got out! I bet he was pumped! My boy turns 5 in another month. He's been on the 120 last 2 seasons. He'll be on it next season for sure, but might be it. I did some mods this last year to make it faster: change the gearing and moved to a 35 chain, velocity stack, governor spring...

Is that Camelot?

Nice pickup! Now you need a bigger trailer..

And here in the midwest, snow totals for the entire season have been under 25"....

Here's an article on it. https://www.weau.com/2024/02/20/gov-evers-announces-support-is-available-many-northern-wisconsin-businesses-affected-by-lack-winter-snow/ Good to see them brining attention to it, and encouraging others to still travel and spend. I do not see the issue with it. It's a...

Our field survived👍 Probably had 2". He has off school on Fridays(4k) and I still kept my vacation day for our cancelled trip. He was out multiple times today, starting at 7:30am. He was so excited to finally ride! I told him we all live through his joy 🤣 Cold temps tonight and tomorrow. He'll...

He'll take it!:)

I'll take any snow for ground cover. My boy has been chomping at the bit to get his 120 back out. He was able to use it for the following week or so after the warmup. He hasn't been too happy since then. I told him you're a true snowmobiler now that you're mad at the weather! I saw a guy driving...

Crazy. That was quite the lightning storm on my drive home, just north of Madison. I feel bad for this guy, I wonder what was in there? https://www.channel3000.com/news/take-a-look-wisconsin-sees-first-ever-february-tornado/collection_0ebbd180-c6f5-11ee-bf65-f3ceb162ef27.html

I would probably try to pump it out. Peace of mind. I use the stabil marine before storage. I normally try to pump out as much as possible in the fall though. Never had any issues.

Sounds like my wife. She's a dental hygienist, so very hard for her to get off. I can pretty much take off at any time. Definitely hard when you try to plan trips earlier and later in the season when you do not have guaranteed snow. Hotel prices are pretty reasonable out there. We went in early...

@indy_500 I'm contemplating West yellowstone. I haven't been there since '09, and a good year to do it. I checked snowest for conditions and looks like you are thinking the same!:) I do not even have a mile on my truck/trailer this season. Not bad considering I have 600 miles in this season...

I've been using the Garmin Drive with VV mapping. I'm on my 2nd one. The power connection got loose over time, and would not power on. I expected that just with the beating on the sled. Worked well for 3 years though. $60 for used ones, so not too bad! I did silicone the edges as others have...

WI DOT is ending the frozen road declaration for the entire state tomorrow. Craziness.

I believe you're talking about the Dane/Sauk bridge over the WI River. It appears they put $500K in this year, and $250K in the next 2 years. They still approved a lot of other bridge rehab projects though. It appears they approved 336 new miles of funded trails. There wasn't anything added...

Looks like 20 bridge rehab projects? $1.1 Mil. Nothing new for bridges though. Was your club's bridge new or rehab? It does show some comments on the rehab requests, A good snow season brings in a need of extra Supplemental funding. Plus add some storm damage also...

Speaking for WI, all that money goes into the segregated snowmobile trail aids fund. Fall tasks involving brushing and signing still happened and get paid out. There was a good amount of grooming going on in S. WI for the 10 days. Nowhere near the rate of clubs grooming in a normal N. WI winter...

Correct. The new 800 HO they introduced in 2015 has been very reliable and proven engine. Cooling updates in 2018. My '18 800 XCR runs 20F cooler then my '17. 7K mileage on my '18, never been opened up and trouble free. 8.5K on my '17. New top end at 7K to play it safe during covid.

I've ate at the Dump twice since trails opened. Fast and excellent food! You drove past my house on the trail. I live 1/4 mile down from Coopers. I saw 2 sleds go past around 7ish. Possibly you!

Nice you guys got down this way!! Especially with it really only being the good snow in the midwest. Fun while it lasted... Crazy you can see the power plant from miles away. I believe that will be shutdown within a year or two. That second to last picture Indy took is just outside Lodi. I got...
