Anywhere there was a ice ridge or ruff ice has really drifted in too.... vehicles were out and momentum was their friend but where you stop might be deep so it’s a gamble.
Some areas your in a foot of snow then bam two feet or more for a good distance and now Mother Nature is going to warm this all up making it a slushy soft mess....
We were on the quad plowing through got halfway over to garnet but after digging the quad out several times we made a run back....just to help others dig out....
If you have a snowmobile and plan on coming out this is the best choice, tracked quad or side by side would be a close second, wheeled quad,side by side third and I wouldn’t even take a vehicle out but this is just my suggestion as both of us have sore muscles this morning....digging out vehicles suck!
We had lots of chasers from the bottom up, a few light hookups but nothing stayed on then it just died off like nothing at all....we call it the February Blues...
Better than sitting in an office
