who on here snowmobiles?



when we had that blizzard here two years ago we got 22 inches of snow there were 15 foot drifts i was making it thru with a polaris ranger i finally got stcuk in a 3 foot drift rocked it a little and got it out
 
I'm struggling with believing you managed to get a Ranger through 22" of snow, unless it was really light and fluffy or the Polaris was sitting on a lift with tall tires. I love my Sportsman, but the only thing I do with it in 22" of snow is plow my driveway.
 
I have a 5 foot plow on my Grizzly 660. Some serious 26" Dirt Devil tires and the other year we got hammered with snow. Luckily my Warn plow lifts nice and high. Therefore I was able to go through a lot. Hit the streets to help out family and neighbors family etc. There were a couple of completely unplowed streets where I was lucky to paddle along in 4wd and kinda riding on the skid plates. I want to say that was around 20 inches or so of snow. Without the extra weight of the plow and winch..I probably would have done a lot better. Or maybe I would have been high centering... nah... the Grizz and I weigh enough to find pavement..lol

Now..gimme a snow mobile track and it's gravy.

Go into the noob section introductions thing and them take a bunch of pics of your mullet machine and post them in the ride threa
 


never rode "trails" before, just on neighboring farm fields and family owned private land. My last sled was a 199 ZL600, before that I had a 1997 Thundercat, that thing was built to the balls! Who knows, when I go back up to Michigan this winter I might get bit by the bug and buy another sled lol
 
tails are kinda boring until they open up a little. you also need a fairly nimble sled to go fast in trails.

i always liked going up into the UP and riding the old railroad track trails. 20 yards wide means couple mile runs at 80+ mph. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
