I leave the sled in the trailer at the place we are renting. So it goes up once and back once. We have made friends with some of the locals, and we’ve left our trailers on their property as well, if we’re staying at a lodge, and don’t rent a place for the winter. But there was a time for years when we’d trailer every trip when we’d go up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not epic miles for a lot of guys but nearing 600 for the four days of riding I’ve had with one more to go tomorrow. Huge group today, 36 sleds. We rode from Limestone to Portage. People from as far away as Nova Scotia and western NY. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that picture on ITS 90 heading west? 36 is a huge group is right. Staying at Deans in portage? Good grub there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staying at the old Loring Air Force Base in Limestone. It’s the winter meeting of the Northeast Chapter of the International Snowmobile Council. NY, MA, ME, NH, VT plus PEI, NB and Nova Scotia. We are missing Ontario, Quebec and Newfoundland from the meeting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 At this point , February looks worse then I thought it would be for NNE. I didn’t think it would be better than average But the last week of the month is gonna have to produce or it very well looks like a ratter month for at least NH/VT standards to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there was a time for years when we’d trailer every trip when we’d go up. We thought about that in the past. My reason for never doing it is that I always grease the sleds after each trip and like to wash, inspect etc. The amount of miles we would put on at times I just didn't feel comfortable ignoring them after a trip.

I have a CAT908M with a Metal Pless wing plow, with two other trucks sitting, saving on fuel and so far no plow damage ! lolI Everything is still fully equipped here but at this point I’m rooting for more warmth, around April 1 my ACH from CTDOT will show up with the yearly guarantee and I didn’t have to burn any fuel, payroll, broken plows, etc, only downside is having to wait for the $ all winter….. great winter for my seasonal loader rental for the local airport too, only one event for it since November otherwise just collecting the monthly check 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not now. Just laughing at this point. ...Pics of Daffodils coming in northern Virginia in the mid Atlantic thread.
