On Saturday morning, the lake riding was great with a few wet areas here and there. In the afternoon those same wet areas became a little larger however it was no issue for the snowmobiles to ride right over them.

My tracked Polaris Ranger weighted down by a heavy front plow, ice auger on the rear and numerous pounds of gear in it and also towing a jet sled full of gear had a slow go of it and couldn't go faster than 7 or 8 miles an hour. Got stuck once which simply required going in reverse and getting a little head start.

Didn't go out Sunday so not sure how bad it got.

The good news is we have 10 days of single digit night time weather coming which should tighten things back up!
