Carter we booked and are coming out Mar 7-111. I took your advice and spoke to techsledder, he was helpful. Is there anything extra besides the usual helmets and clothing we need to bring like backpacks or stuff like that?

Well, they've had close to 5 feet or more in the UP and you don't see more than 18" on the ground. It's called settling and melting.

Mark, you would be surprised how many folks stop at the giant snow gauge near Phoenix and think that in the record breaking winter of 78-79 the snow was really 32 feet deep! Or in an average winter 20 feet deep!

I know, LOL. If that were the case, all of the houses and street lights etc. would be completely covered in a normal winter. Good humor!

Hey, that was me back in my 1985 SRV days (In 1985). I felt cheated since only 2-3 feet were on the ground. ?????? lol

We just got back from tog on sat. Rode with Carter or should we say (Spot) and yes there are many tracks around Tog, however Spot put us in fresh snow every day. It was much better than we expected had a very good time. If your not with a local or a guide tog will be a little disappointing but with someone who knows there way around you will have a good time. Thanks again Carter for a good ride. If anyone wants to know why Carter is now known as Spot he will have to explain.

Guys, go into the weather channel and type 83013 for Moran, Wy. It will help explain the weather patterns. That said, we are holding our own..guys who aren't using the guides are saying they are finding good stuff to ride in. one must get aggressive at looking but its out there.I had an awesome day yesterday, and found 3 new spots I have NEVER been in before.....great finds...Its there just waiting for you to find ride and enjoy....that said..........the weather patterns are a changing and to all you cluckers who cancel you are going to miss out on the dump a coming...time for you to get with the program.....get here ....ride...enjoy.....the greatest show on snow is about to SHOW....more later...
