Nice to know somebody is riding.

I see the state of Georgia is getting snow.

A low pressure system over Washington / Idaho should help get some powder.

Thanks Don! That is where I am at right now.... watching the 11:00 news and they have us in a winter storm warning ..... I got off the plane in Atlanta and it was snowing.... WTF!!! That sucks, If I can take the low pressure system and cold front into bag check when I come home I will!!! :mad:
 
King,

Oh my, please oh please bring that Low pressure home with you. If your airline try's to charge you a bag fee for it, I will be more then happy to pay for it.

I have done enough pre-ride stuff on our sleds plus a couple of friends, I am sick of cleaning clean clutches, trying to make it snow. I just looked at the 10 day on weather.com and oh cr*p it does not look good. Done with the Harley lets get the winter rolling.
 
Both hoods were up letting them cool off in the 50degree weather.

so serious in this yearly traditional thread, dont wanna get the human GPS all fired up on ya huh for hyjackin????

Matty Mac we Polaris has to open up the hood once in awhile to cool off all that Power it seems to get hot when you are pulling all those horsies....

Tell me about it smash, only one problem I see...



Those sleds are missing a cylinder!!!!

I was able to do a little side hilling and able to scratch up the new Assualt apperently the new IQ chassi leans over a little easier than the old edge ended up pulling to hard and ended up in the trees grabbing a hand full of throttle and scratching up the new sled not bad though sh!tl buff out. We did 20 miles and I even found a kicker to huck the new sled to.....First ride of the season and extreamly happy with the new sled.. Sure glad I bought a POLAIS.

Hey Smash, I guess if your gonna fall off of something it just as well be a poooo ......LOL
 
King,

ugh...tell me about it. I'm still riding to work everyday, hoping I get rained on, at least on the way home anyway.

On a good note...Cooke City and Yellowstone @ the end of the month.
snow, snow, snow please.

Next time you ladies come down to Mammoth w/ some deeper snow throw a shout out to us southern folk...we're itching too!
 
I went out 120 East (Benton Road) and then south up the Crooked Mdws Rd to about 1 mi from Crooked Mdws. This is an area that i logged in the early 70s.

Hope that help Don. :beer;

Are there any private "cabins" there on NFS land?
 
I stopped in @ Busteres and got Wayne phone # down in NM. The guy said Wayne was doing good. I well be calling him this afternoon. I start riding with him in 1969.

Too Much Time On My Hands

Well for some thing to do today. I drove up to the high country and did a little chore that I was going to do after it started storming. I remarked the Marker Tree in Upper Jones Valley and did a 5 mi day hike just to walk off Thanksgiving.

John:

I gotta laugh everytime I see the name "Jones Valley". That Jones fella sure got around. We have this one, then one on the West side of Webber Peak, and one on the way up to Babbitt. That's three of them in about a 30 mile radius. Wonder how many there are in Calif.? Would make a good trivia question.

Enjoyed the pics.

I think this Jones guy was chasing the Bear that they named all the Bear Valley's after
 
We rode China Wall today and it was petty good for what snow we had. We were the only one to ride out of there today. It snowed on us off and on but not real hard. We did about 38 miles today and I had lots of fun. About 10 to 15 inches at the start and 2 1/2 to almost 3 ft up high. More tomorrow.

So Mt Rose has about 20 inches of just awesome snow. The problem, NO BASE. What amazing powder just needs to settle and cover up all of the bombs. Able to dial clutching in on sleds today so I guess not a bad day.

Makes me chuckle, as those "bombs" haven't moved during the past 26 yrs. Rosie always needs lots of coverage and time to settle, then it's gangbusters. Thanks for the report.
