Out riding in the Bighorns with w8ing4snow and bluebear and having a great time. Several stucks and so far only 1 sled damaged. We found one of thoose rocks the Big Horns is notorious and kinda put a gash in the chaincase. Got it all backtogethor tonight with some JB Weld, RTV, and a pop bottle grin.png. I'll try and get some pictures uploaded not sure about the inet connection though.

Sweet deal good to hear you are getting out there and ripping that sweet pow up, so was this the deepest snow that you have rode in ?

Yeah sledhound we rode today and riding tommorow yet then heading home.

We rode mostly south the last two days down around granite pass parking area. Rode north somewere the first day and probably heading up there tommorow.

Case is holding up ok leaking a bit but I think he totaled it out today. Landed it on a rock bent the aarm and we think twisted the frame a bit. He's riding it yet tommorow and see what they say when he gets home. I'll put pics up later and have bluebear get your video up. We found even deeper snow today and lots more rocks.

Ok on our way home. All the sleds but the Fcat survived it ended up having more problems then we thought. From what we can tell the bulkhead is twisted, aarm is bent, chaincase is cracked, recoil is cracked, and a engine mount must be broke cause the engine was bouncing all over we ended up pulling it out. Otherwise a great trip and wonderfull snow.

Looks like it was a great trip ! cheers

Looks great! We are leaving March 3rd and I was hearing some mixed results about the conditions out there but your pictures tell a pretty good story. Looking forward to trying out my version of a X-fire 800!

Just got back from there, first time ever out there and it was sweet!!!! Found a few rocks, broke a few things, but it was sweet. Stayed at the bear lodge, that place is awesome-nice people. Found lots of pow and the 136" 1.25 track worked really well. Came back with no broken bones, except for my buddy- who dropped off a cronice and broke his wrist.
