s pump Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I've said it before but I've been snowmobiling since the early 70s and we used to go to Old Forge, Maine, Vermont for snowmobile vacations in February. Got rained on plenty of times even up in the county. Seems to be about the same to me. I remember a couple Winters in the mid-90s where we rode dirt bikes every weekend. Never snowed at all. Couple years ago we had four feet of snow on the ground in Connecticut for most of the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XC.Morrison Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 We've had the best winter I've seen in central IL since I moved back down here 8 years ago. I actually got in some local riding, nearly got stuck a couple of times in the drifted over ditches. I'd love to see a 12-18" snowstorm yet this year down here. That used to be a once a week occurrence when I lived in the UP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not here it didn't, Elk Lake that didn't freeze in 2016 was the only time anyone can remember it not freezing at all. We have had many low or no snow years but not the warm temps. like now.

Reevester Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Some trails are buried in snow and clubs are having a tough time grooming. Having to drop drags and pack the 2 feet of fresh snow on top of the 4' that was already there. Imagine being a guy with 8 days off and 6 days of riding that. Northern Ontario for the madafucking win!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xtralettucetomatoe580 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I can see grass here. Awesome! Just a warm spell away from breaking up some ice and running the Moomba with the stereo cranked and half naked sloots in the bow. Fuck winter. Until next year when I have a sled again.
