Headed to Moab on the 3rd again, but I guess the Jeep is going to have to just hang out till then... looks like it's still sled season!

That is pretty deep. But I'm not complaining. The more snow the better.

But I've been wheeling 3 times in 2013 so far- once each month (except Jan). We just go to places that don't have snow (or that much snow).

I'll always take more snow... I can wheel down low or in Moab, and go up high to go sled! Best of both worlds!

Perhaps you haven't seen the forecast ;)


Next weekend looks to be even deeper than this one. (and I've got a 3 week old sled that needs more pounding!) I did about 1k in damage to it this weekend, gotta try harder next weekend!:eek:

it's kinda fun...:D

You should get one... The new machines are flat out amazing... you don't even need to do anything to them anymore. I usually spend from 5 to 10k on top of the sled, and this thing I'm riding stock (minor mods, I'll probably spend 2500 max on it, which is low to me, but I'm a crack head)


Oh... and the fear of "flopping" is non existent!! I roll my sled every day!

And being on your side... it's a GOOD thing :D
