On a ride with friends from the camp on Paugus Bay, riding across the Lake and up up and away to the main corridor trail to all points Noth, and even on up to the Saint Lawrence Seaway, on a two week ride.
I've been sledding since Years, right from here. Now, there have been winters when there was a lack of snow, but I Never considered selling any of my sleds. In my opinion, just one good winter's riding is Well worth the investment, and the memories are Priceless as well.
The word I'm looking for is ( Patience ). Isn't that what life is all about. If something is not worth waiting for, what is the sense??
The picture that I posted was taken up at Twin Mountain, and I have a great number of photos in the winter PhotoPost Gallery.
The snow is on the way...

Patience. I have that. I'm a bowhunter! Patience runs thin at the end of January. No snow until February makes for a very short season.

Unfortunately some years you have to be willing to trailer if you live in Southern NH. There's great riding 2 hours North...

Thankfully I am off to Pittsburg next Thursday! Any places with rideable trails not that far up for this weekend? Haven't seen any reports since Sunday's rain.

I hear the riding at Twin Mountain has been great!

Pittsburg should be a blast! Always loved riding up there!

Have fun!

Staying at Tall Timber

Woke up Sunday morning to -38. There were 18 of use staying there.

The bathroom of the Cabin was on pilings, Yes the water line to the toilet Froze. 10 feet away the tub hot water was still running, took a "Waste" Basket and filled the bowl with warm water and yes it would Flushed.

Several of the guys went out to start their Cars/Trucks then came right back in with the news that none of the cars would turn over let alone Start. Some of them went back out and removed the batteries, brought the in to the cabin and put the on the wood stove to thaw them out. Someone found a small battery charger in their trunk, it really did not do much.

We decide to pack all our gear away and go have breakfast.

Finally around noontime they (Tall Timer, Tom or his brother) brought the old Army truck over, must have had one heck of a Generator in it, and with in a half hour got everyone stared.

Other than that it was a great 4 days of riding.
