Snowmobiling blues...

We made it! Been here for a few days in Maine. Rode the roughest rtrails we've ever been on over in the western part.... took 7.5 hours to cover 100 miles on Wed....what a workout.

Now at Moosehead Lake.... great trails. Came across 8 young ladies cross-county skiing and off their trail by 10 miles. Helped them get some help to get to the cabms they were trying to reach.

Crossed a lake 2-3 miles long on solid ice. Ice up here is reportedly 4' thick at this time.... snowmobile open range!

Some pix: A long view shot of the Lake (it's gotta be at least 30 miles long) and mountains and then coming off the ice this evening:

Totally cool, I love those like shots. I've only been on a lake one time that was frozen and it had about a foot and a half of powder on top of that and our long sleds just loved it. It was so much fun. I know one day I'm going to have to get my wife a nicer Trail sled because she really doesn't use the mountain sled as it should be. She exclusively stays on the trail so I could see this coming in the future. Again thank you so much for sharing the pictures and the story also..
Our plan is to go back up to mount head on Monday but we'll see...
