They suggested going off trail into a field to kick up some powder. As rookies we were uncomfortable with the going off trail idea (just our luck...we would have a landowner come by!) so we stopped for the day.

Thanks to everyone who works on these trails! They looked great to us! We look forward to putting many miles on our latest toy!
PK- I would have to question the dealer regarding the temperature guage. While there is not a ton of snow, there should be enough to throw onto your heat exchangers and cool the sled. You should not have to go off trail to cool your sled.

The club has a ride out of the Village Kitchen on Saturdays weekly (snow dependent) at 0830 that may interest you.
