Just wondering as it is only a little over a week away , about a New Year's Day run here in the valley area ? , I've been out with the amount of snow we have and it doesn't seem to to bad in the woods, some places are a little tricky but we manage to get through with some patients and a winch , but if there's anything going on or people planning on going in deffently game for a good day trip with a trail side cook out ...

Still plan to have a run, but this time of year we have to wait until close to the day to see what the weather and conditions are like to know for sure. I know some are willing to try anything, but we'd like to include everyone.
I can say that it will be in the Bear River area, hoping to be able to do Shelbourne Road.

Yes I do agree with you there it would be great to involve everyone from stock to extreme , and I do know the road and it should be a good trip if there's a run , a few of us were back in Roxbury rd which goes to paradise lake, yesterday and we were wheeling snow over the bumpers , the road in is about 7.5 k and it's a beauty of a trip , all I can say is I'm excited about it , and I've learned that airing down is very essential when going in the deep snow as well , we only had to winch 4 times the entire trip in and out so I thought that was pretty good ,

We used to do Roxbury in the winter, but it's used as a snowmobile trail, and they don't like us using it!

Just respect the other folks who use the road. It's a public road, but in the winter it's the sledders' domain, and if you use it with snow on the ground, you are effectively ruining it for them.

I am off for two weeks so a New Years run sounds good. If gas prices keep dropping, a trip from here to Bear River in the Jeep won't be too expensive!

It's the return trip that'll cost you, it's uphill.  |

Was back this afternoon on sled and there's bare spots everywhere up through the chopping now , and through over 80% of it , I wouldn't want to go back there on sled till more snow fell that's for sure ,

Might have some French guys coming, is that OK? LOL Jason Blinn just picked up a Jiberty and I think I've convinced him and young Jamie Belliveau, with a YJ, to join us.
