well folks me and mrs.wisz decided to battle the blowing snow today and try a rip on the trails around mitchell today.we had a blast with the drifts,they were anywhere from 2 to 5ft deep right across the trail.we managed to carve our way through,but we have decided new sleds with some suspension are top priority.our old polaris's are just getting to hard on the body .we went through the ellise swamp tour and it was really good until we got to the north side of the tour.the groomer must have packed it in until the storm is gone.we have been getting hammered here since saturday.not a bad ride and not in my top 10 list but the drifts made it a little more enjoyable.i anyone is thinking of a place to go this weekend i wouldn't worry about this area,we have about 2 ft of fresh packed snow and its still a blizzard outside.the groomers will be out tomorrow and by the weekend paradise

I'd set sail for a snow laden destination that distance if it wasn't for my crappy work schedule....I have made plans to make it to the SW Charity ride for '07 already....

So here's to you wisz .....

Seriously....great pics and looks like a great place to sled.....enjoy my friend. :thumbsup:

Nice, very nice. Know what you mean about the older sleds on the bodies, wife and I decided last year to upgrade only for the better suspensions.
