He looks like a little older rp7x to me.

That was my first thought! Only met him the one time at haydays, but sure looks similar in that first post above. Long lost brother Carter? lol

Indicating the proper technique for making a snow angel…

"I wish I was on one of those rentals behind me"

 

[getsome]

That is the international back country guide sign that means SPORS.

Agreed ! haha this was my guess.

 

[mikes99ss]

I thought it was...."I found the sippy hole"

 

[polarisrider1]

Actually it means "Deep narrow ravine with water" can be frozen or open.

You are all wrong. It is the universal trail hand signal that means that you have to poop. One hand would mean you have to pee. That is what we train all the girls and wives that we ride with. It is worth a laugh every season.

Carter Sez.....

Ok, after a lot of laughs, I see Firecatguy got it right. With helmuts on we needed a way to tell each other how dumb we are. So the curled arms over the head with the hands touching the head means "That was a bonehead move." Didn't matter what the move was, from a stuck to a #$@^%&*( quite funny..... Also we used to have a big dog bone on a rope that you had to wear until the next guy pulled off a bonehead move and then he got the bone. It hung around the helmut and layed on the coat for all to see. Jerry Bell retired the bone.

At my advanced age my memory isn't what it used to be but for the life of me I don't ever recall seeing that bone hanging around your neck. Is that possible?
