Our team leaders have a real challenge figuring out the trail system. They lead and the rest follow. Today was a real challenge because it rained yesterday and the snow had a coating of ice. Our sleds need snow to cool them and to provide lubrication to the slides. We traveled 180 miles today and arrived safely in Hearst tonight.

We went for a circle ride today and came upon the Frederick House River. A beautiful spot hidden from the main trail.

Both Groups have safely arrived in Hearst, Ontario. We rode 150 miles from Wawa to Hornepayne, Ontario yesterday and stayed at “Uncles” last night (no internet access, so no post yesterday). We had several Yamaha’s we could not get started this morning with temps at -20F. One ultimately rode in the trailer to Hearst. We are heading to Smooth Rock Falls in the Morning. Plan on posting video later this evening.
Patented a new invention today: “Snowmobile Cover” for a Yamaha made from an electric blanket.
