chris.brock Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 It snowed 40+ cm's per day for 3 days, for a total of 122 cm, we came up at the tail end of the storm, the date in the pics isn't quite right the dog had to be carried while breaking trail getting wood from the shed the truck's stuck the phazer didn't like the deep powder, lots of digging to break the trail, I wish I had the BR250 longtrack back then pretty scene, we can relax after everything is taken care of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freshtrax Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 (edited) Just tuned up the old sled last weekend, plugs, carbs, belt, new helix seccondary spring and a little more weight in the primarys( I'm pretty sure I have the fastest hut pulling sled on the lake ) any takers? I can't wait. Don't let the 600 on the hood fool ya I kinda like them there people are like what the hell after a long pull 113 mph on the gps.

chris.brock Posted November 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 I fell in love the first time I ever laid eyes on a Phazer as a kid! yeah, I hear ya, the Darth Vader sled, pretty cool classic sled, it runs like a scared rabbit when it's -15, I picked up a br250 longtrack that I've fallen in love with for bushwacking in Haliburton, I'm a Yamaha fan (like you're a VW fan) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freshtrax Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 My first sled was a 86 bravo, was not a long track but that thing was indestructible . Zero mantinance and beat up by me and my cousins for 20 years would start 3rd pull every morning. the perfect ice fishing sled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 I have a place in the north end of Haliburton and remember that year well. There were two years in a row with lots of snow and the last two with little. Started on the last weekend of the deer rifle hunt. Went from bare ground to well over a foot on the Saturday night and was on the ground to well into April. I think it contributed to the last two poor deer seasons up there. This year saw lots of deer. I don't yet have a snowmobile and walk 2.5 km to the cottage from the paved road so I am very familar with the snow up there.

singingdog Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) Quickest start to the ski season we ever had....although it was a bear to groom. We had 3 folks on snowshoes in front of the snowmobile, just trying to get down the trail. Edited November 2, 2012 by singingdog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Caster Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Its about darn time. Bring on the white stuff in hogsheads and in meters and temperatures so low it'll be freezing off peters. The crazies will be crazy so let 'em turn early while I hike and jig and others become lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F_ast Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 I too remember that storm. We have a place just NE of Haliburton on Moose Lake. As a sledder I was in heaven... But a week later I was crying when we got 30mm of rain and +5 temps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
