  1. Buck Rub is probbly the only decent lunch/dinner on-trail stop up there. it does get pretty busy, and trails right around it are usually beat to shit. I am heading up there next week for the week
  2. my first sled was a '96 Ski Doo grand touring, which was awesome as it was my first, but after a 100 mile ride on ungroomed trails one day, I was ready to light it on fire. once I saw the new REV, I sold the GT, and bought a new '04 Rev ($4k), which was an unreal sled. I think @dryslot had one around that year. next I bought an '11 Renegade ($7k), which was miles ahead of the '04. wrecked that one against a tree in a slow-speed crash that took out the right a-arm and bent the tunnel. now I have a '19 Enduro ($12k), which is the nuts. but I still can't believe the prices now. I have less than 2k miles on it, so I just might have it forever.
  3. this is a fact. i hooked up with some buddies on Saturday and did a nice 115 mile ride. it has been 3 years since i have been able to do that, and it was a ton of fun. early winter I was having thoughts about selling my sled. now that I have been out a few times, I changed my mind
  4. I've wandered in there a few times over the years. what a cesspool with a whole lot of hate being thrown around
  5. i think your definition of "somewhat OT" is different than mine. you know that there is a banter thread, right?
  6. pack almost knee deep here. Measured 19” in an area somewhat protected from the hurricane force winds.
  7. it's been an impressive stretch for us since 1/11. No thaws, so the pack has remained since that date, and been deepening steadily since 1/29. I need to get out and measure my depth later today, but it's got to be at least 18".
  8. not much in the way of wind here, although there are some dead oak and beech leaves blowing around. sorry, but no here
  9. calling it 8" here (4" snow/2" sleet/2" snow). nearly impossible to get a real accurate measurement
  10. I went out to do an initial driveway clearing must have been right after it flipped. Poundtown, as the kids say.
  11. Well that was quite the flip. picked up 2” in the last hour, and still going
  12. What did you get for snow/sleet, and did you flip to zr or plain rain? been 90% sleet here since 8am or so, never got zr
  13. Max temp here was 27, down to 24 now.
  14. back over to snow here, prob some sleet mixed in but mostly snow
  15. It’s flat and fast (but you need to hit it on Saturday-it gets a lot of traffic). A few nice spots to check out, but it can be 50 miles of boring. There are a bunch of trails right off it, a couple small general stores, and a few pizza places. you can also get to the top of Mt Kearsage, which on a nice day has a fantastic view. Let me know if you do it, I’ll meet you half way
  16. Took a nice snowmobile ride yesterday. Started out in Boscawen @mahk_webstah, went up and over to Newfound Lake. Up over the hills through Lyme and Bridgewater (I assume near @wxeyeNH) to Canaan. Had lunch at the Refinery in Andover, then back to the truck. Nice 115 mile round trip. Trails were great aside from corridor 5 near Gene.
  17. Agreed. have had snow cover for close to 6 weeks, and have been able to snowmobile locally for the first time in several years. depth here is around 18”, although I’ve not measured yet today.
  18. 24F, 4” and now a scalping in progress
  19. net gain here. Hit 34 briefly, now down to 31. Picked up an inch or 2. current pack is over a foot, or to be more precise, deep enough to fill my boot when I stepped off the shoveled path
