Full Version: Year-End Review of Rides on Lake of the Woods
HCS Snowmobile Forums > State and Province Snowmobile Forums > Canadian Snowmobile Forums > Manitoba
I'm pretty much done riding for the year....I think? Managed to put a total of 4,786 miles on this season with 2,432 of those miles at Lake of the Woods and area. Had fun riding with feelthethunder, opt8low, falconsledder, nd_rice and shootinstick on these lake rides and look forward to ride with them (and hopefully some new guys) again next season. Got good use out of my MN, Manitoba and Ontario trail permits. The balance of the miles were in ND.
I put an animated map together showing each individual ride.
Download file then play it in Windows Media Player.

My two previous Garmin models...a GPS III + and GPSMAP 176 would screen fade at 10 degrees F or colder and needed a heater...but the 276c has worked in temps of -15 F with no screen fade and has not needed a heater.
