So I blew off work (thanks for going on vacation boss.. lol) and went to go play in the snow. What was supposed to be mostly cloudy and up to 2 inches of snow turned into sunny for most of the day. HUGE surprise and made for an awesome day.

I left my memory card at home so no pictures yet.

Things I learned from the day. If you see a cool looking area and say, man, that area looks like fun. STAY the F AWAY!!!.. lol Long story short but 4 stucks in 30 minutes, with three of them within 100 ft of each other is just plain retarded. Seriously. Been a while since I felt like a newb. That and when trying to pull my sled backwards I hurt my back. :face-icon-small-dis Good thinking on lifting with the legs... retard..

Anyways, it was a great day. It always amazes me how little time we have on the west side to ride powder. By noon that stuff is starting to setup.

Since I don't have any pictures right now I will give you some quotes.

"Hey Ruffy, pic me up, I want to hang out with you guys" lol It was hilarious because he was actually serious about it.

"Oh XXXXX" as I jumped over yammadogs head with my sled going sideways... That could have been bad.

Rode with a couple of new guys that I haven't ridden with before. One of them just would not stop. He was a great rider and by 3 or 4pm he was going as strong as I was in the morning. Totally put me to shame.

Anyways, pics to follow.

Doesn't "X" stand for kiss? "Kiss kiss kiss kiss kiss" sounds kinda ghey to me. Almost as ghey as no pics.


HURRY UP!! :whip: :D

First deep snow ride of the year for me!

I can now officially say that I am happy with the 2010 XP and WB's clutch kit!

I know it's a low-snow year, but the trees are getting bigger on Kachess Ridge as well. There are a number of areas that I used to ride thru that are now inaccessable (or nearly inaccessable) because of the trees
 
fun in the sun

Yes I was there too
but had a bit of trouble keeping my track on.
I saw everybody having fun around me.
Thanks to all the heavy lifters that help get the tank to the road.
I owe you all a few drinks
 
Awesome Day. Nice riding with everyone. Sorry about your track Mike, glad we could rally some troops to get you out. I had to make an emergency oil run for Lushbomb while they were getting your sled out.

Best moment of the day outside all time in the white room was this moment when I almost pissed myself:

I put the sherman tank into the snowbank in this little ravene down in Baker, only to step off, see Matt bailing off his sled mid air to have it head straight for me on a ghost ride.. I sunk into the snow as I tried to make a run for it and was stuck. His Polaris just barely missed me and stuffs itself right into the bank in front of my sled in the exact same position. Couldn't have planted it any better. To funny.

Was great meeting you guys! Couldn't have ridden with a better group!
