Snowmobiling

[The Branch Doctor]

I'm so excited for sled season to start! I did my preseason maintenance on my sled today so the only thing keeping me from riding is about 2 more storms in the high country. We're supposed to get some snow in the mountains on Sunday and if it dumps up there I'm blowing off work Monday to go play.:D

I know there's got to be at least a few sled-heads around here praying to the snow Gods!

Here's mine..

[IchWarriorMkII]

I need to swap the ACT fluid in my '07 X-Fire, and it will be good to go. But I probably have a while till the snow gets deep enough... its WARM lately. No pack in the high country yet.

Everytime I want to throw a 2" paddle track on it, we get crap snow, so I think I'll keep the 1.25" Ripsaw on it for now... Ideally I'd like a 1.5" paddle track, but its hard for me to go a half inch short when Im dropping $600 for a new camoplast.

[sotc]

i sold my sled 2 years ago to start my llc. heres mine it was a 01 151" highmark 700. and the last is my buddy on his 01 rmk 800:D
my "new" sled is a 1975 john deere :D

[The Branch Doctor]

Sweet pics!

Hey Ichwarrior, where do you live?

[vharrison]

I would love to do that! Kinda a snow version of our jet ski's down here!

[MasterBlaster]

Snow? Imma hafta google that!

[The Branch Doctor]

I guess snow isn't something you guys down south have to ever deal with. Too bad cause playing in the snow kicks ass and the scenery can be more incredible than words can describe!!

Of course there is a down side to back country sledding and that is no matter what... you will bury your sled and have to dig yourself out and it can SUCK!!

Here's a couple pics of my ridding buddy digging.... and digging... and digging.

On the Western Slope

[sotc]

haha heres my buddy

[billcutstrees]

I don't have a snow mobile but i'm thinking about heading north sometime this winter with my 4 wheeler.:D

[treetx]

snow=fun to play in, crap to work in. I don't miss that.

[sotc]

id rather work in snow than cold rain

[sotc]

this is by far the best sled video ive seen!

[MasterBlaster]

Unbelievable.

[squisher]

Awesome Willie! Sledding is huge around here, I never got big into sledding but I've travelled the wintertime backcountry around here lots using a snowmobile (tundraII) to access some of the finest skiing around.

[sotc]

heres what we used to do except for the ending!

[IchWarriorMkII]

Way cool video's.

I don't do that much hillclimb, its not that gnarly were I ride... its fairly technical hill climbs that you hit after you weave through trees that don't last long. Makes me think a 2" Challanger track 136" would rock on my Xfire.

Man... Im pumped to go ride again...

[The Branch Doctor]

Awesome video! Hill climbing is a blast but coming back down scares the crap out of me at times.

[Al Smith]

Sleds rise and fall in popularity here.We have several snowy winters followed by not so snowy.The sled crowds have to go to the U.P. of Mich.to find enough good snow.The four wheelers have pretty much taken their place.

The older ones sell relatively cheap.Of course they are or may be like old saws that haven't been started in 15 years.What I know about snowmobiles would fit in a thimble with room to spare.

[The Branch Doctor]

Right on Al. So, do you ride?

[stehansen]

Snow? Imma hafta google that!

I've heard it's white.

[Skwerl]

I've heard it's cold, too. :?

[MasterBlaster]

Something about not eating the yellow snow, too.

Evidently the Huskies have something to do with it?

[The Branch Doctor]

You guys are missing out on a lot of fun. Snow sports are awesome... if you have the proper equipment.

If you aren't in appropriate attire it's going to SUCK!!!!!

I ski, snowmobile, snowshoe, and ice fish having a blast all winter long. I don't know what I'd do if I wasn't able to frolic in the snow for 3-4 months a year.

[Skwerl]

... I don't know what I'd do if I wasn't able to frolic in the snow for 3-4 months a year.

ummm, frolic on the beach? 8)

Its a definite blast...

...I almost have as much fun on a dirt bike, but there is nothing like carving fresh powder on a sled. Nothing.

[The Branch Doctor]

I'm a mountains kind of guy all the way. I don't know anything about the ocean and flatlands are too, oh what's the word, FLAT for me.

However, I do love to visit the beach. Couldn't live there but it's a hell of a fun place to go play.:D

[sotc]

im with ya doc, except i love the ocean to. i had the best of both worlds in kodiak, it would snow on the beach:D

[Al Smith]

Oh that snow stuff is alright I guess if you like it.I tollerate it as if I have much choice in the matter.

After working in inclimate weather for the better part of 22 years in construction,the novelty wore off.When I walk accross that parking lot to go to work on those below zero days in Jan.,that's as cold as I'm going to get all day,now of days.:D

[sotc]

heres a few more i found

[The Branch Doctor]

Definitely one of the realities of sledding.... you will bang it up and that costs $'s but oh well, shit happens when you're playing like a rock star.;)

[IchWarriorMkII]

Im now rockin' and '07 M8 with a 144" track

Word.

I can't wait for snow.

[Skwerl]

What exactly do you mean by "and"??? I don't understand your sentence, or else that word does not mean what you think it means.

[squisher]

That's called the generation gap I think Brian.:P

[The Branch Doctor]

I think he meant to say "an" Brian.

[IchWarriorMkII]

I suffer from fat finger disease.

my brain said stop at 'an' and the fingers threw the 'd' in for no extra cost.

whoops...

[The Branch Doctor]

We got 3-4 inches in town last night and 12+ in the high country.:P

I get to go play soon!:rockon:

[Skwerl]

Yeah, one of those extra D's must have slipped out of your avatar picture... ;)

[The Branch Doctor]

:lol:

[MasterBlaster]

I suffer from fat finger disease.

Fear not the edit option.

[Frans]

Well I checked it out. I am looking at about 1500 bucks to basicly set my self up with clothing, boots, and gloves that would keep me fairly comfortable thrashing about in the snow.
Or, just take a nap on the beach :)

[sotc]

aw your looking at top of the line stuff. i wear packs with wool socks, thermals under sweats under snow pants and thermals under long sleeve t-shirt under sweater under coat. helmet covers head and any old ski gloves work. boots and all, under 500. shoot i had all that suff anyway so no cost for me

[Frans]

I dont like to get cold

[Mike Maas]

A snowmobile is like a woman, you have to work on them for 3 or 4 hours to have fifteen minutes of fun.:lol:

[sotc]

must be old .................. snowmobiles :lol:

[The Branch Doctor]

Yep, the difference between the old ones and new is pretty dramatic. Plus if you maintain it well it'll perform for ya.

Mine is running like a champ and ready for the snow! I think I'm going to blow off working one day this week and go play in the mountains.:D

[stehansen]

Yeah, one of those extra D's must have slipped out of your avatar picture... ;)

As a public service I checked, and they are both still there.

[The Branch Doctor]

YEEEEEHAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!! Instead of working tomorrow I'm going sledding baby. I'm so excited I can't wait to finally get back on my sled after the looong summer.

Have fun at work tomorrow everybody, I'm "cutting class" so to speak.:blob6: :D

[Skwerl]

Have fun and don't freeze your nuts off! :lol:

[sotc]

pics!! carving pics!

[The Branch Doctor]

Somebody stole my camera so I won't be able to take any pics.:(

But, I will have fun... lots and lots of fun.

[IchWarriorMkII]

Here's the one pic I got to share

http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h309/IchWarriorMkII/M8.jpg

a link to the unedited photo:

[The Branch Doctor]

Cool pic. Sledding was fun on Thursday. I went skiing today for the first time this year.:thumbup:

[MasterBlaster]

I bet that is fun as all get out. I would probably kill myself!

[sotc]

nice carve! i love plowing my shoulder in 8)
butch the landing is usually softer than on a dirt bike:)

[The Branch Doctor]

If you're gonna crash, do it in the snow.... and pray that it's deep!:D

[IchWarriorMkII]

I fell off once last year... right on a rock. Only rock in the whole park we where playing it.

Got a charlie horse on my right arse cheek... that was brutal.


All dismounts today were soft and easy... just get a little wet.

[The Branch Doctor]

On our way back from skiing today my bro and I decided we were going to find somewhere on top of Cameron Pass to stop and make a kicker (ski jump) to play on for a while. Fortunately we came upon a group of 4 guys that had one almost built so we helped finish it up and the fun began.:D

Flying off of a big jump into really deep powder is a blast! It's the perfect place to learn new tricks and not get hurt. It was deep enough today that I could've landed on my head and not get injured, a little bit of snow down the back of my ski jacket, but no injury.

Today was a fun day of playing in the high country.:D

[sotc]

alright doc, no more excuses, go get us some pics!!

[The Branch Doctor]

Roger that.;)

[Reddog]

Here is a good one I found.

[sotc]

great snow, beautiful day! im leaning with him:D

[The Branch Doctor]

Damn that looks fun as hell. I need to go sledding!

[IchWarriorMkII]

http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h309/IchWarriorMkII/100_0026.jpg

Here is a shot of the hill I was climbing sunday. Its cropped to the top 10% as I jumped over the road and up the bank to turn around. Cut off a bunch of road cutting across the switch back. The bottom half was gnarly, it stopped a Arctic Cat 1m 600 halfway up the bottom 2 times.

I got a good shot of my dad climbing it, Ill put it up when I get it emailed to me.

Going out tommorrow!

[sotc]

cool

[Paul B]

that virgin schnow looks way cool, the hill is so not represented in that pic though. :( power on and ride it out!!!

[Jonseredbred]

That was a great video, It takes alot of experience and stamina to ride powder like that.

[The Branch Doctor]

That was a great video, It takes alot of experience and stamina to ride powder like that.

Yeah it does.... and a sled with balls helps too.:D

[Reddog]

Yeah I would like to have heard that machine run in the video. I think it was turbo ed or super charged. It would get right up on top and climb.

[IchWarriorMkII]

I'd have to say Im definately a new guy to the modding of sleds...

If I'm running a 141" track, will more power make it run better in the steep and deep or am I just wasting money until I get a long track?


Or more power, more snow thrown out the back of the sled, the better it goes, anytime anywhere?

I spent a little time on a '03 900 with a 144" track, and I'm not so sure the extra power was put to good use... but that could have well been a chassis/sled issue vs. the M series.

[The Branch Doctor]

From what I understand the longer the track the better in the steep and deep.

[sotc]

and the more power it takes to turn it. i love a 151" and a 700-800. plenty of power, plenty of track and still very manueverable.
your always throwing snow when your full throttle, if you went up hill as fast as your track was turning (no slip) you couldnt hang on!

[IchWarriorMkII]

Thats part of the reason I keep to the short tracks, because Im not a big guy at all, getting one to move for me is much easier with a shorter track...

... and its less junk to pick out of the hole when you get stuck.

[sotc]

yeah big tracks are nice but when their stuck it a huge job to get them out! my old deere gets stuck, somebody grabs a ski loop and pulls while you give it throttle and away we go again

[squisher]

I find it funny that a 141" is now a shorter track. From my experience sledding more power is always better. Technique is everything, I've got a buddy who makes it look so easy on his big (now kind of old) RMK800. He probably weighs 170 dripping wet and he throws that sled around like it's a tinker toy, pretty amazing to watch. Rather than using muscle to steer the sled he's just holding on and using his body weight/balance to carve it up.

[The Branch Doctor]

That's how I ride Squishy. I'm about the same size as your buddy too.... but I wish I had a few more pounds to throw around.

[sotc]

ive got a few ill lend ya:) i learned early on that either you ride the sled or it rides you.

[squisher]

This thread has got to stop, I'm jonesing so bad for a sled lately it's ridiculous. And with some big cheques rolling in from snow removal it makes perfect sense to me that that money should be spent on snow playing. Unfortunately my wife isn't following this logic so much.

[The Branch Doctor]

Oh no Squishy, this thread WILL go on and on and on and on. Why do you think I started it.:P

You KNOW what you have to do bro.... go get a sled with a long track and lots of power and go play in the stuff thats bringing in the pay checks!:D

If you don't the Snow Gods will turn against you and bring chaos to your life. So when the wife gives you grief about getting a sled just tell her what I said and you'll be fine.... trust me, I got your back.;)

[squisher]

Can I stay at your place?:lol:

[The Branch Doctor]

For some reason people that listen to my advice end up on my couch and mad at me for "ruining" their lives or some crap like that. I don't know what the hell they're whining about.:roll:

[sotc]

haha:) it makes me want to go get another, been 2 years since i sold mine!

[IchWarriorMkII]

2 years without riding?


... couldn't do it...

[The Branch Doctor]

I agree, that ain't right bro.:?

[sotc]

i sold my sled for money to start my business. now i try to find ways to write off things:) just not quite up to sleds yet:)

[The Branch Doctor]

The guy I ride with and bought my sled from has a tree business too and he wrote his sleds off. We have a bad beetle kill problem and he calls our trips "work related" and gets away with it.

[squisher]

You can get away with anything until the wrong person starts poking around, then you'd better hope all your t's are crossed and i's are dotted or you'll get forked over before ya know it. That said that's not a bad idea :D .

[IchWarriorMkII]

Sometimes I get to charge rent for riding my sled for work... because there is only ONE way to get to a 10,000ft remote Microwave site...


Boss doesn't think its worthy of just buying me a whole new sled and calling it even stevens

[sotc]

see you guys have ligitish reasons. not to say that every purchase i make for the company is a good one but i try. ill justify a quad well before a sled

[The Branch Doctor]

You realize Willie that since you no longer sled you can only read about the rest of us having fun sledding and be sad and jealous.:P

That's no way to live bro. So you should do yourself a favor and get a sled.:D

[sotc]

i have a classic now. its a 1975 john deere 800 with a 440. havent had it out yet but it runs now!

[Reddog]

sotc,
We want some vids when you decide to start jumping that thing. The three inches of suspension they had seemed good in the day, but now a little rough on the body.
But they are fun in the yard pulling the kids and playing.

[sotc]

haha yeah the aggressive 3/4" lugs on that track:)

[squisher]

What no carpet track? It must have been upgraded.:D

[sotc]

could be shag

[squisher]

Ahh yes a 70's machine :lol:

[sotc]

green track? or gold?

[The Branch Doctor]

Antiques don't count Willie.

[sotc]

hey i was born in 75 and im still a kid, antique humpf! :)

[Paul B]

technically you seem correct:
"An antique (Latin: antiquus; old) is a collectible item which is old (usually at least 100 years old) and is collected or desirable because of its age, rarity, condition, utility, or other unique features."

[sotc]

oh, well unique, ok then

[The Branch Doctor]

Dude, that was SSSIIIICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Notice all the green Arctic Cats and yellow revs... bad ass machines!

[The Branch Doctor]

Hey Willie, I'm going sledding tomorrow.:rockon: :headbang:

[MasterBlaster]

I can't believe they don't kill themselves.

[sotc]

sweet! bringing your christmas present?! we have great snow but nothing to hill climb with :cry:

[The Branch Doctor]

I knew you were going to mention my camera so YES I'll have it and YES I'll take pics.


Isn't that some SICK shit Butch? I have no desire to sled off cliffs or go that big off jumps. I'd do it my my skis all day long but not a snowmobile. Sleds are heavy and gravity is always in full effect.

[squisher]

Sleds have suspension though which is replaceable, where humans only have knees which I guess are somewhat replaceable as well.

Have fun sledding ya bastad I'll be pushing snow again.$$$$

[The Branch Doctor]

Word.

[IchWarriorMkII]

How come Im not seeing any pictures?

[sotc]

me to!

[The Branch Doctor]

Howdy fellas.... I'm back from a most righteous day playing in some DEEP snow.:D

I only got a few pics, nothing real special. I planned on getting a bunch but I got a little distracted by the sh#t load of powder everywhere.;)

[The Branch Doctor]

I have a vid but I haven't figured out how to post vids yet.:|:

[squisher]

Ha ha, awesome you crazy looking mofo!

[The Branch Doctor]

What can I say... they sure grow em ugly where I'm from.;)

[squisher]

Lol, heh you could almost pass for a Canadian in that mugshot!:D

[sotc]

kewl! which machine is yours?

[The Branch Doctor]

Neither. Mines in the shop.:(

I made the mistake of letting a moron ride my sled and he somehow managed to catch it on fire.:X It's a long story. I'll spare you the details.

Anyway, I was riding the blue polaris rmk700. I love that sled! It's plenty fast, it has reverse, and electric an starter. It's a little heavy but oh well... I manage.:)

[The Branch Doctor]

I played hooky from work today to go sledding... and I'm not in the least bit sorry!:D

I can't believe how much snow we have up there still. I was expecting some spring like conditions but to my surprise winter is far from over in the high country.:D From the looks of our snow depth I might still be able to sled up into June!8) God I love this place!!!!!!!!!!!

[sotc]

incredible year, they just core sampled and were at 559 percent of normal

[The Branch Doctor]

Yeah baby I'm blowing off work tomorrow to go sledding..... again.:D

On our way home from sledding last week we stopped into the ski-doo dealership to check out the sleds and there was one of them that was a hell of a deal so my buddy gave them $500 to hold it for him. He did some fanagling and somehow managed to come up with the money to pay it off.

So, not only do we have over 24" of fresh powder from yesterday.... we're picking this bad mofo on the way up there.8)

Tomorrow is going to be RIGHTOUS!:D

[MasterBlaster]

Man, I bet that's FUN!!! :rockon:

[The Branch Doctor]

Here's a few pics of a huge hole I managed to crash my sled into.:|:

It was a bitch trying to get my sled turned around so I could drive it out of the 7ft cavern I stuck it in. Good thing I carry a shovel!:D

[Skwerl]

What, that thing doesn't have a reverse? :lol:

[The Branch Doctor]

Man, I bet that's FUN!!! :rockon:


Oh man, if you only knew..... you'd be jealous as hell!:D

We're going to tear shit up with authority tomorrow.:evil:

[MasterBlaster]

No sight of snow 'round these parts!

[The Branch Doctor]

What, that thing doesn't have a reverse? :lol:

Actually it does but if you're not on a compacted trail the ass end digs straight down.:(

[sotc]

this is what i kept on my sled for a shovel. it doubles as a splint and move serious amounts of snow hard or soft
http://www.shopping.com/xPC-Snowclaw-Guide-Shovel

[The Branch Doctor]

Wow, that's different. One of those would be nice to have on the sled. Gotta love multi purpose tools.;)


Oh yeah, hey Willie, I'll be thinking about ya while I'm playing in the snow tomorrow. Have fun at work bro.:P

:big-laughing-at:

[sotc]

ohhhhh :X: i hope you have to dig out 10 times:P

[Skwerl]

Jason, was this you? And did the snow shovel help? :P
http://www.kgw.com/news-local/stories/kgw_041208_news_mt_st_helens_fall.5a6351bd.html

ohhh hell get a ticket most likely, probably worth the story though

[The Branch Doctor]

Ha! Could've been if that was where I lived. I have a little bit of video from my ride on Friday but I cannot figure out how to post vids from utube.:X

Anyway, nice one BriAn.... focker.:D

[MasterBlaster]

I cannot figure out how to post vids from utube.:X

Just copy the code provided on the right hand side of the page, then paste it where you want it.

Nothing to it.

[sotc]

i took the steel canopy off my truck for the first time in 2.5 years and look what i found on the back window:)

[The Branch Doctor]

Went sledding for the 3rd Friday in a row.;)

Once again I've got a bit of video but, once again, I can't get the youtube link to work.

[Skwerl]

Well just post the url of the youtube page and one of us will embed it for you. ;)

[The Branch Doctor]

I'm lost. Well if anyone wants to see just go to youtube and they're all branchdoctor videos.

I guess I'm too retarded for embedding.:|:

Those are friggin cool Willie! Nice addition to the hunting/sledding pack for sure. Thanks hommie!:D

[sotc]

saw that in sportsmans warehouse and thought that would be a sweet snowmobile item. i always packed a thermos of hot water and some instant cocoa or cider

[The Branch Doctor]

Hey Willie, watch the vid in post #142 again and listen to the motor on my buddy's sled. It's an arctic cat with a hopped up triple 1000 and a 159 track. The thing is a friggin missile on steroids! Hang on tight when you drop the throttle on that monster.:D

[sotc]

triple? what year is it? 90s? sounds like hes turning 9k-10k? that sounds like it will take you places you shouldnt go!!

[sotc]

tuned pipes, thats why its loud? my 700 was set up nice. pipes, jets, lefty, grab strap. probably get myself introuble with a 1000

Dude, you couldn't be more right on that! That damn thing goes 80-90 mph up hills. I don't want that much power. Sometimes there is such a thing as too much juice.:O

cleaned out the carport and found a disc with some old snomobile pics. some of these may be reposts. first one is wagner gap on top of the siskiyou range (oregon/calif. border). next 2 are me and my buddy kreg somewhere along the ridgetop, calif in the back ground. next 3 are my buddy ryan who we were always rescuing as you can tell! we had to hike a long way to get to him so we got his camera out of his pack before rescuing him:). the last 4 are me, then kreg, then ryan, then me again. in the6th pic you can just make out the toe of ryans boot sticking up out of the snow
