Yowza!

Bad News?... That many VTT's kick up A LOT of dust?

Good News?... That many VTT's keep away A LOT of mosquitoes?

no problemo for me ,i ride alone...dust always behind !!!

about mosquitoes....when i started working with dad and chainsaws in the woods 40 years ago...he told me not to swear at them...the more you swear

..the more you ll have around you ...and i don t use that stuff in spray!!!

no '' quebec words '' while in the woods ....hahhaha

You want Dust?

Snirt Run 2016 on Tug Hill in NY over 4600 atv's entered in the poker run. Probably another 2000-3000 there not registered for the run. Biggest atv frat party in the US! First year with o snow and o visiibility at times. Missed it this year but what a party it is!

Snirt Run another great reason to stay the heck away from there. You need to have your head examined if that is your Idea of fun.

Seriously now come on.

HaHa

That was no fun. Usually like the pics below. It is one hell of a party though. Some funny chit in the mudpit they have there also.

And yes there where quite a few accidents due to visibility. It is a huge fund raiser for the local snowmobile club.

hi artsled !!!

still winter here !!! very limited to ride 4w....i use snowmobile trails or roads who had been plowed during winter !!!

no rain here since a month if memory still good....few drops this morning ..very little !!!

last week end has been warm ...but 4 c right now...

snow melting very slowly ...rivers are nt even high...first pic with river...rocks at bottom of pic...you could add easily 2 more feet of water on top !!! very low for this time of season !!!

i don t expect to be at my camp with 4w , only , before next week ...and i don t expect to use lawn mower at camp before mid june...

ps : last sunday ,i was playing on snow banks in my street with 4w...
