Too lazy to take the camera out all year but decided to with this being the possible last ride.
Haven't had the camera out all winter, so thinking this could be the last ride of the year I brought it along.
Went down to a friends in Gordon WI. 40 acres and a mobile home, country living.

We rode forest roads and goat paths the whole day. No ice, dirt, or other snowmobilers the entire day.

Sleds take a lot of abuse out in the back country. My buddies is shoe glued, tip tied, and wired together. His latest run in with a stump left him with wood plug where a plastic one previously resided.

It's also a little over a quarter mile long which makes it a good drag race location. I pumelled my buddies ZL700. Jumped out to a good sled lenght lead and held it to the end of the lake.

Alas, all good things must come to an end...abruptly, the 700 ran out of gas.

We were down by the lake burning brush. Southern exposure on a hill is my guess.

Had a little brush burning here too last week... lost about 40 acres of the woods. Fire dept saved my burn... too bad they drank up the last couple kegs of Genny I had. Wild fires were no joke last week, thankfully we finally getting some rain.
BTW nice pics, what camera you using?

Maybe the Ewoks used heat guns to melt the snow

yoda, the camera is an old kodak 3.2megapixal. We've had it now for about 3 years. I dropped it in a bucket of water last winter and it hasn't quite been the same since. Among other things, I think the picture quality has diminished since the incident.

The pictures dont seem to be as clear as they could be.
