    Talk about kicking my ass!! Seeing my Raptor wouldn't move in this stuff, I took the KTM for a rip. I don't think I've ever been so exhausted after a 1/2 hour ride in my life Holy crap was that a lot of work, fun though

    Bu tyeah, got to tool around on the 'Cat plowing & shit. I'm gonna try to keep a betterer path cleared this year so it's easier for the non-Raptors & non-4WD's to get up from the lake...

    It never stopped snowing here today, though it wasn't amounting to much. Even though it's cold out, the ground isn't frozen so the snow is melting from the bottom up.
    Anyway, I forgot I had a set of 22's for the Rappy, bolted them on the rear and I've been riding for the last 2 hours

    Pulled the KTM out in this huh. I thought the other day riding in 30's was cold nevermind the 20's. Traction...I see spectacular moments
    How'd that ATV do plowing the foot of this powder?

    Well that changes things, you have to work on them for him? Should be yours to ride anytime You cleaned the carb? What happened to the other carb, the carbed Raptors have 2 carbs

    20's? Yeah it was 13 out when I went riding There's a huge difference riding trails when it's cold vs street/fireroads. 3rd gear doing about 10mph with the rear always kicked out...you could almost be in T-shirt and feel warm. I never fell today so there wasn't much for spectacular moments...though I had a few close calls Tomorrow is another day, you're not afraid of the snow are you

    The atv plowed pretty good, though I screwed up and didn't quite plow the driveway wide enough and I can't push them back anymore with the quad. I'd be fine if tomorrows forcast didn't just change, it went from 1" of snow turning to rain...to 6" + of snow. May have to use the Kubota for that

    Re: Snow!!!

    snow is for snowmobiles.

    although with all the ice last week, we've spent the past three days clearing trees from the trails.

    let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow let it snow

    Dubbya-Tee-Eff = WTF

    It never really stopped snowing here yesterday 'til like, 10:00 last night. And now the forcast is calling for EIGHTEEN inches by midnight tonight. Not to mention this shit wasn't supposed to start 'til after noon, but it's coming down like a fuggin' blanket already...

    The last time I checked the ice was back just before that 50 degree day and it was already 4-5" thick. Summa the local retards've already been out skating & playing hockey out there. Ain't seen anyone riding on the lake(s) yet, but I'm pretty sure with all this snow they'll all just assume it's safe to. Only a matter of time...

    Re: Snow!!!

    Hello, Checking in from Bolton Valley VT. I am assuming a Raptor is a sport 2 wheel drive quad. I have a 96 Polaris 500 Sportsman. I plowed with chains on the rear wheels when i lost 4 wheel drive and it worked great. I now have 4 wheel back and chains on the front whick help with steering and traction of coarse.
    I have plowed 4 ft storms with it it will not stop or get stuck. I skid my own logs and am amazed how much quads will pull and plow. I sport plow which should be in the x-games next season.
    We had a great base last week and got a ft yesterday, skiing was great. I took my boys and there friends up to the mt. One of the 3 Mts was closed so for last run I had my exhausted wife drive my truck to the lower lodge for an illegal powder pick up.
    We got to ski trailos that were virginal over the knees Utah powder. It was 0 yesterday and the snow was very light on a nice base.
    I followed some very competant young powder hounds down the closed trails. It was a great adventure.
    yes my kids know not to do these things with out my planning, I always have the communication devise etc.
    They are calling for another ft plus today and tomorrow. Monday should be epic and I have it off.
    I put the kids dirt bikes away laqst night. I want a KX100 for a pit bike!!
    Tonight I force the family out onto the snowshoe trail, It is to windy for skiing today.
    Happy Holidays and enjoy the snow.

    Re: Snow!!!

    Hmmm, another 5" and then it turned to freezing rain. I busted the winch for my plow I haven't taken it off yet to see what the problem was, it just wouldn't lift the plow out of the snow? It still sounds like it's turning when I hit the switch, just aint moving?
    Todays snow was that heavy wet crap as well, Before the changover to rain, I measured the dept of the snow on my deck, just over 16"

    I left the Raptor out last night which wasn't the best move. All the snow and ice on it from yesterdays ride made it un-rideable today. Everything was frozen It's now in the basement thawing out and making a mess on my floor, I had to almost drag the thing down the ramps.

    The picture should answer your assumption out thumped

    Once I put the bigger tires on, it made a huge difference. My neighbor blazed the trails with a 4x4 quad and I was able to follow with no problems.
    You're much less likely to get stuck with a dirtbike than a quad with the type of snow we had yesterday. Todays snow, if it has wheels and isn't all wheel drive, leave it in the garage What a difference a day makes

    Re: Snow!!!

    Somewhere in the 15-16" is what I'm guessing we got up here. Our's is the fluffy shit though. Easier 'n shit to move. But the depth of it took me damned near an hour just to do my fookin' driveway! I'll be working on the path to the lake this week & weekend. With the thaw & rain, it oughtta give us a nice runway up the backyard!
