hooked my bobsled up for the first time this winter. the snow is about 20 inches here from the storm 2 weeks ago and it hasnt thawed . needless to say the sled wouldnt float at all but with quite a few rest stops i made it to my back property line .. the weather is calling for a thaw the next 4-5 days so i hope to get a nice hard trail made with a few more trips then i can start cutting my firewood for next winter.
