Uintah Mountain's East of Salt Lake City, yes very low about half the average. Temps have been in the mid 50's most the winter. It was shallow hit a few stumps, one on a nice carve that sent me off.

Yes I have really been pissed off about it this year! I like this more than boating

Why would you need a mountain sled in Minnesota? Eh?

I had been going west since 96, Montana , Wyoming , Colorado , we were in Wyoming early last march they had 90+ inches but it was wet and sticky the sled,s were over heating so we only stayed a couple day,s .

Is that an old sled? Looks really small and sounds like a 2smoke?

Yes it is an older 800 154. The newer ones are actually more compact. And yes it is a 2 stroke, they really pretty much dominant the snow mobile world. Yamaha is the only company that I know has a heavy 4 stroke.

:thumbup: I've only ridden a few and they seemed bigger. Those things are a blast. I thought most were 4 strokes.

Mine is a 06 REV, that REV was really the beginning of the "new" styling. There are some BIG machines out there, It is all about light weight with what we do. Nah most are 2.

Can't really tell but this run was pretty steep.

I watched the video and it filled my house up with 2 cycle fumes. I got to snowmobile that whole area east of Park City just before the 2002 Winter Olympics. I'm sure open land in that area is just a thing of the past...

I am about 20 min East of PC in these videos...Most of it is still wide open. There are a few new bigger developments but not that much.
