A sno-scoot, Snow hawk, and a Nytro May 1st family ride

[Mtnviper]

Talk about a mixed bag of snowmobiles!LOL Blue skis and a snow pack that is still well above normal, so its all good. I'm hoping that we'll be able to get in a 4th of July ride this year! Last time we were able to ride on the 4th was the 1998-99 season.

At first glace, before enlarging the pic, it totally looks like your shirt is way to short hahaha! The spring snow looks great! And it looks like theres alot to last a couple more months.

I see that I live in the wrong place. Lucky you with that conditions still..
Where are the pics taken?

 

[Mtnviper]

LOL yeah, I've been wearing the weight lifter's belt since back in the days of the leaf springer sleds! Back then I wore it because the sleds had no suspension. I just got in the habit of wearing it over the years, helps out an old guys's back when I have to lift a sled out of a hole.

Pic's were taken at the Mt Baker area in WA state. We went to an area called Blue lake, instead of going up on to the mountain itself. Mainly so Gracie could get some practice time in on the sno-scoot!

Usually our last ride is June during a normal year. The dam in the pic is at a fairly low elevation approx 1500-2000', with a normal snow pack on it at about half of what you see in the pic for this time of the year.

Nice pictures. July riding at Baker, I will definitely try to!!

 

[AKrider]

Nice pictures! You guys got way, way more snow than we did this year. The elevation of the dam was much lower than I expected it to be.

 

[Mtnviper]

yeah, our weather during this spring has been averaging about 10F colder than normal with plenty of rain in town. Which means more snow for the mountains!
Not so much fun for when you need to do things around the house, but great for extending the sledding season

For sure
Haven't seen you up this way for awhile Ruffy. Is the snow still ok down south?

Only been out 4 times this year, hoping to make baker soon. Snow is great down here, deepest of the season still. Gonna be riding down here for a while.

Fishing season is coming fast here, and you guys are still riding. Wish I could make a living down there.

I know, there is still some riding here. But for me the first trip of the year is May 26th. That is the day we do the Armed Services Combat Fishing Tournament. I can not miss that. It is such a honor to take these guys fishing and give them a shot at some nice prizes and prize money.


Is that duct tape on the side of that Ski Don't?

Has to be an Alaskan.....
