I have been a snowmobile owner for about 5 years. I do a lot of lake riding. I don't seem to have what it takes to "go" in the slush. I'm appealing to the experts here as to the proper method of operating the sled in significant slush. Both of my sleds are 2ups, a 570 Artic Cat and a 700 Ski-Doo GT. I've tried leaning forward, leaning backward, feathering the throttle, wide open throttle, nothing seems to be the "right method". I nearly got stuck today and it wasn't a good feeling. Thoughts and experiences???
