It wasn't too bad up near Trial Lake today...definitely worth the trip!...some pics of interest (hope the links work...something different from PhotoBucket):

This guy took being courteous on the trail to a new meaning...sure did not block the way!:

Second try...

Ugh...need to go back to PhotoBucket...but you get the picture......it was a good day of riding for a couple of FL kids...

Good stuff, but yeah, Picasa sorta sucks for the whole linking pics thing.
PB is the best i've found (for free none the less).

Road coverage good?

 

[Pastor]

Great!!

Go to snotel and rejoice about what happened there last night!!

You guys sure you by Trial?

My buddy said he saw a jeep in the same predicament by Duchesne Ridge...

Thanks for the pics. Looks like Mill Hollow/Duchesne ridge.

Just got off the phone with Kyle, needless to say he was a bit excited about today's EPIC deep ride. I'm poised at the computer waiting for pics.

Come on Andris start posting.

Sunday pics...

OK...I'll try to get the pics labelled right this time...(yesterday was both Duchesne and Trial...moved the truck at lunch from Noblets to Soapy).

Today was all Soapstone, first running up the back way to Iron Mine lake, then a run up and over Soapstone to 35...we didn't need to go off trail to go boonie...35 had 2+ feet and we rode the whole thing up to Wolf Creek carving like crazy...no really, you can go look for yourself at our track tomorrow...

Couple of pics (since SH won't believe it with out them)...poor XP had asthma today trying to get through the dust:

Stopping for a quick break:

and a small vid...sorry bout the jitters...tough to ride in those conditions with one hand... :

Nice!!! how much total snow would you say was up there?

 

[girlpowder]

Looks kind of fun. I wish we were there helping you carve it up.

 

[sledhead ut]

Shaaawinggggg.

Very nice guys. You have impeccable timing for your trip. Sad that I live here and couldn't get out today. Oh well, my time is coming.

Must have been brutal not having me break trail for your Ski Doo Boggers.

Andris, I thought sure you were going to Yell: I F'n love Utah when you panned in on yourself.

Snow depth...

Where we took those pics (up around Iron Mine Lake) it was pushing 3'...we turned around there to go back and refuel, then went up to Wolf Creek on 35...35 had easy 2' on it...over my kneecaps...epic...

Oh, and SH...I doo love UT...

 

[dustbuster]

Speechless in UT...

Well, we ran out of words to describe the riding today...tried to catch up with SH mileage count, but failed due to high snow...all we could do was say 'wow'...some pics before we head back to FL:

Utah at it's second best (untracked):

Utah at it's best (tracked):

Some joker hitchin' a ride:

A little depth perspective...note the ski position in the pile!:

Absolutely amazing...great base laid down for the season...can't wait to come back and ride with you all in a couple of weeks! By the looks of all the posts on the forums, a lot of folks had some great riding...thanks for sharing!

I'm so happy for you two having such incredible timing.

You totally nailed it.

Thanks for posting the pics.

 

[mtnpull]

Great pics. Can't wait to get out in it. SH is right, that is some excellent timing!
