Hey Jean-Guy I know the owner of that snowmobile I met him In the UP of Michigan on trail 417 his name is Tom lakenen he has a Sculpture Park right on the trail. Very nice guy he gives out free hot coffee and snacks And also has a fire going for the snowmobiles to keep warm. May have to go back to next year if the snows good I love that place. !!!!

It still amazes me that you remember where all your pictures were taken and the date too!

I am sure that is pretty close to where I saw that Reindeer wearing a QR hat?

Strange to see 'snirt' around Causapscal in mid-January - yuck!

I think Linda needs to visit on her way back from the Gathering and help organize a snow dance.

(We lost most of our trails in Vermont between mid day Sun and Mon. Our groomer is parked for awhile.)
