Hi guys!
Last weekend we thought we had taken our last ride this season, but it wasn`t. Been snowing all day long, not much but enough for us to be able to get up on the mountain. My friend with the Vector MTN was suppost to trailer his sled to sweden and ride there, but the road was closed due to bad weather, so he stayed in the town where he lives. The Viperguy wasn`t home. So it was only my brother in law and I who went riding.
It was really cloudy and it snowed almost all the time, but the sun came out of the clouds a few times.
Down at sea level..
Brother in law
When we came up the lake we were suppost to ride to, we got a nice surprise. The powder seemed bottom less, it`s the most fun I`ve had this year on a sled.

The Viper was a blast to ride in the powder, no bogging either. I like it so much.
It started snowing alot so we decided to ride to another place.

On our way home. It snowed like ¤#%&.
We had planned to stay out the whole day because there was a huge famlily come-together at our house, but I guess it would be too rude to do that. Well we would have if it hadn`t been for the bad visibility in the mountains.. wellwell.

Awesome pics once again.I'm glad you like your sled.
Thanks pro116. After work today I spent 121$ on gas so I hope the little snow we have will last for a few days. Sun has been shining all day but since I was at work I couldnt ride. Maybe we will go riding tonight or/and tomorrow. My brother is home with his to little kids so I feel kind of bad when I go out all the time, they only come here one or a couple of times per year so.. .
Wellwell

Well Ike it was gone but it came back!! .
Everybody sais that the climate is changing, I think it`s bullshit.. . From time to time the weather will change.. .A guy (older guy) that I know told me that he remebered a period when he was little, it was little snow for 2-3 years and then there was more snow the next couple of years.. so I hope this is a period of little snow and that there will be better snow-years to come.

awesome pics man..your making me drool.. and i thought we still had lots of snow left here in the mountains..but i guess it wont take long for your snow to melt sine its open and no trees around
bluemonster1: Sure man, just let me know when your plane lands so you wount have to wait too long on the airport.
Daman: Yeah I can`t tell how much I like the Viper. It`s so easy to ride in the soft stuff. I totally love it. My brother in law rarely have freezing issues, his handwarmers doesn`t work but he never freezes.. . Wierd.
92vwgti: Thanks. Yeah it`s melting fast.. atleast down at sea level. One hour with heavy rain and it`s over.. so let`s hope it wount rain.
I figure tomorrow might be the last ride of the season.. but you never know.
You still have some left?

That was great! Makes me want to go down and edit my footage from the TY ride in March. It won't be near as good though, different riding.
03viperguy: Sorry to hear that, I will e-mail you them a little later, I`m on dial up so my connection is really slow, so I`ll send it when I leave the computer, in a few hours.
Crewchief47: Thanks man. Do you have a helmet cam?. I bet your film is just as good as mine. Right now I am having trouble mixing 16:9 footage with the 4:3 from the helmet cam.. . All the "normal" sled filming has been shot in 16:9 format and my editing programme wount alow me to mix them.. gees. Will have to figure it out tho.
Thanks again for not getting sick of all of my posts hehe.

Ya, I bought one this year, 'Sno-xr' showed me an Ebay link to a cheap one and I had to have it. After I downloaded the footage to the computer, I realized I had ALOT of wasted film. Hopefully I get better for next year and we hit more play areas. Of 3 hours of footage, I'm hoping to have 5 minutes that will be worth showing. There are a couple funny spots, but not quite enough. Mine's all in 4:3, so no issues there. I will get it edited eventually. (famous last words)
