Hit a rock last year in Cooke City MT and bent the s-module and tunnel. The sled was written off by the insurance company, so i bought it back. Thought i would post some photos of the before and after as i am also changing color. Fixed most of the physical damage in Cooke City on the left side. It wasn't till we got home that more damaged was noticed.

WOW, I see why you bought it back. Your sled after being written off looks better than mine after a couple days of tree bashing.

Maybe this year you two will listen and take heed! Tembec is logging in the McEvoy/Upper Flathead and hauling up and down Morrissey. It will be a plowed road and sleds are prohibited. We (FSA) don't know the situation for pullouts yet but radio controlled from Morrissey up to the Cabin would be recommended. We/they think they will be finished on the Coal Creek road this week.

The pipeline is dangerous as TCP has placed deterrents (1 meter rock and large trees) in various creek crossings and in particular the crossing at the Cabin and up the line to the south. They may or may not be marked during early season.

I will keep everyone posted as to any further developments.:beer::beer::beer:

Just a litte dig Dobir for the comments last year about the "mis-information" about the snow in Morrissey or the lack thereof. I was honest about my posts with regards to no snow in the valley bottoms but up higher it was great. Wasn't it you and Milton that took the enclosed to Morrissey and found no snow and had to go back to Corbin to unload?

So please be aware of the logging in Morrissey/McEvoy (plowed road and lack of pullouts) and the boulders and horizontal trees on the pipeline. Since I noticed the post of getting to the Wrangler's early I thought I'd get your attention. Mission accomplished, cheers:d:d:d

Fernie Snow.....As I recall Dobir and Milton found out by going ,there was no snow ......NO ONE Made any comments about not being able to trailer from Morrissey ........Dobir and Milton posted about this after it happened to them .........You made no comments PRIOR to them going .....Just to clarify !!!!
Furthermore , I am unclear as to why you choose to gloat about someone else's misfortune , and it wasn't just Dobir and Milton , there were about 10 others that experienced the same problem!! You can keep your smart azz'd comments to yourself!
