Here's some more pictures of last weekend in McBride

The first batch are of the damage that the porky pine has done to the interior of the cabin over the summer.

Here is some pictures from Lucille on Sunday. On the Polaris the starter rope broke, we were looking and were surprised there was no starter rope that hooks on the clutch. We ended up wrapping a rope around it and overlapping to start.

So we had a great time and no regrets for our first ride in late November. The snow levels are not at all like the previous years. You wont be able to get in to alot of area's yet. You defiantly cannot get in to Blackwater the back way, it needs alot more snow, when you look off the main trail and look to your left it would be a rough ride in. No snow in there. If you know where to look for the snow you can have a great day. We did and it was worth it. It was easier getting up to Renshaw than expected. Bell was OK, but there was alot of rocks there, probably the least snow, Lucille had a bit more snow than Bell and less land mines but still lots of small tree's. The hills by the Lucille cabin had alot of rocks showing and just beneath the snow, you had to go down to the lower area to have fun. Ride Safe!:d

Thanks for the pics guys. The snow level at the cabin looks to be about what we normally would have had for our Nov. 11 th trip, so definitely a few weeks behind this year. Gonna be in town Fri. riding Renshaw on Sat., here's hoping for more snow before then.:party2::cheering::bluesbros::firefire:

Some people were asking me already about the trail to get into the back side of Blackwater. If your on the main trail and you look left and see that trail there is still logs sticking up, alpine showing, creeks with step banks. Unless they had 4' of snow since the weekend it will be real tough and hard on your equipment and your body to get in there at this time.

awesome pictures. Just so you know all the polaris sleds come with a strap in the owners kit that you can hook on the primary to start the sled.
