I wouldn't mind having his problem... better than getting stuck in the mud or hitting boulders on the trail.[/b]
AMEN TO THAT! I love getting out and playing in the deep stuff, and if you're playing in the snow you're bound to get stuck, and often.
That Ultra is not even stuck that bad because he's on a hill. Tramp down the snow on the low side of the sled, pull on the skis till it's aiming slightly downhill, maybe lift up the rear end and get it out of the trench, et viola! you're unstuck. Maybe 2 minutes work. Well worth the joy of playing in bottomless powder.
Stuck on a flat is a bit more work.
