This was caught by a security camera. Looks like an exposion flash half way thru the video.

Thanks Tom! That's great to see!

bonsoir timbo !!!

thx ...i have nt seen drifts like that in many years!! about time to have fun a bit !!

if no rain...no problems to make it into first week of april to groom !!!

hi playhard !!!

if i understood well.....first of all ..i go in the drifts slowly to feel if snow can support weight of machine !!!

then start to pack...going forward and backward...watch drag ,because when i go backward...it make a big snow amount of snow behind drag.....better watch this,,can make you sink !!

when i feel secure..go a bit further and then backward a bit to pack snow and make sure to have traction...must be careful ,can sink really fast !!

i do it roughly and make sure nothing is dangerous...time to go down to cb...snow has time enough to freeze...i do the final touch on my way back

hi linda !!!

woow !!! never noticed that you taken a pic !!

you re a pro du kodak !!!

won t groom til friday i guess..time to rest !!

pics from tq 5 yesterday ...and starting from stump ,today on my way to lake !!

Hi jg.

Thanks for waiting for us to arrive. Great to finally meet! 587 was interesting across the mountains where the wind mills are. 6 ft drifts and blowong like crazy ! Oh well we are here fine and had a great day of sledding. Obviously pre storm the trails had to be smooth. Other than the ovcaisional surprise ie we ha another drift all went well today. Tq 5 would have been alot worse. Thanks again and great to meet. C u next year.

Hi jg. We are in Edmunston. Fun run fr rimouski. No grooming done at all fr r to Edmunston. Your trails were very good and hats off to you for your efforts. Hope to see you next year.

Amazing how much snow my turbo can fo through. Many BIG drifts. Feilds are marked well but stakes are hidden in some spots due to being burried in snow lol.
