Nice!

I've got my videos copied off my helmet cam and have begun uploading one of them from Sunday

Whoa! We got 3-4" just below the snopark today...
Also, another great vid from 94fordguy. You find a way to put these on a DVD, and I will provide the beef and beer for your "premier".

Should be a "decent" day, relative to the last 35 or so.

Hope to hit the few square feet of fresh stuff that is left on Sunday.

Sorry tampico me and snowdawg ate up all the freshies! Lol to bad u couldn't have gone today it was awesome! I managed to get 55 miles in 9 hr and used a whole tank of fuel.

 

[dooguy]

what were the snow conditions like?

 

[Snodawg]

Probably the best day this year. We've had more snow, but visibilty sucked. Today was nice powder snow but the wind moved it around some, so you could come across some icey areas. Beautiful blue skies. Hard to beat.

Summ8rmk, you should have bought a Pro....61 miles and between quarter and half tank left. Ha Ha

Tampico, I see you're loaded up and ready to go. I honked as I went by this AM. Have fun tomorrow. I think if you head to the right at treephones, go 3/4 mile, take a right, go 500' through the trees, there should be a patch of untouched snow between the Pine tree and the Tamarack about 17' long. Good luck finding it..

Also, nice meeting ya' Cascadesnowjunkie...

The reason why I used a whole tank of fuel is I had to keep my cat wide open to keep up with your pro!

 

[94fordguy]

Good to hear you guys got a good ride in today....

My friend and I are heading up Section 3 tomorrow and I got a Pro 163 on demo Hope there's some decent snow to put it through it's paces.

Rode Tampico today. WAY better than expected. We found the spot where all the snow that has been blowing around is being deposited and it was deeep

Not sure where you guys tracked up because there was untracked every where we went.

Just joking about the tracks, cuz we rode mostly fresh all day, and we found some of them pockets too. Surprisingly, we did not see a whole lot of peeps up there either. Here's a few pics:







Hey 94fordguy, have yourself a great time....you'll never be the same.

Beau and I had a good ride today (couldn't find Snodawgs 17' of freshies). We hit Whites Pocket, lots of climbs, powder and we were first tracks. Took a bit of work to get there, though. Everywhere else was really tracked up. Most of our secret spots are down lower and were totally bare except for the last small snowfall. I noticed a few of the climbs on the north side of Darland were still untracked. If you look hard enough, I think its always possible to find fresh powpow in the Ahtanum, just a lot of area (google earth also helps).

Both roads were decent; thank gosh it snowed and cooled off or the grooming season would have been close to done. I was surprised at how little is left on the lower roads and the amount of barely covered gravel.

Next weekend looks cool-cold, hopefully we get some more snow.

The Pro was amazing.... loving that 163 If I only had $13,000 in my back pocket, lol

I posted my reactions in the 900 forum as I haven't seen much talk about them in there from other 900 guys... I think a couple of them felt threatened by my glowing review of the new sled


Have fun, I got stuff to do
