Recently moved from Manitoba to Alberta, pumped to try mountain riding!

Hi all,
Recently moved to the Calgary area from Eastern Manitoba. Been riding sleds since I was 8 but have never ridden in the mountains. Usually ride with the pdotsledding crew (P-dot Sledding - Manitoba Snowmobiling, Snowmobile Videos, Snowmobile Pictures, P dot Sledding). Recently purchased a 2009 Summit 800, 154", can't wait to get out there this season!
I don't know anyone out in Alberta so I'm hoping to meet some riders through Snow and Mud.
Cheers,
-Owen

Re: Recently moved from Manitoba to Alberta, pumped to try mountain riding!

I'm excited for ya, I think I can speak for a lot of people when I say that you'll never forget your first mountain ride. It will be a great experience, but as others have said...be safe and hook up with an experienced crew if you can because it will help immensely and having a few helping hands when it comes time to dig...and you will!
