Snowmobiles

Where do you pick up the trails out of Lake George ? Is there a trail head in Bolton landing ? What the Lake riding scene like up there ?

We have access to the trails from right behind our house...no trailering!! We pick the trail up right around Ciro's Restaurant in Lake Luzerne.

Normally once the Lake freezes over you can get some real good lake riding in...can make it to Bolton Landing usually. This year sucked for lake riding...lake froze late, late freezing north, and once it did get cold there was not snow on the lake, total bummer. And when we finally got snow last week, the heavy snow actually weighed the ice down and water started coming over the ice. The last weekend of the winter carnival (end of Feb) was pretty much canceled or relocated.
 
Big Time pretty much summed it up. Bolton Landing does not have a trail system, so most guys trailer a few miles to Lake george village to unload. The lake riding scene is nothing special because all the establishments are located at the southern basisn. The Great Sacandaga is a much better lake to ride if you want to hit a bunch of different places. That lake is a bit tricky too, just like Lake George.
 
just spent the last week out in the rockies. a few pics for now, sittin in the house for a while cause I ended up gettin pneumonia :( but it was 60 degrees at 10000 ft when we left... come on summer :bump:

I made the mistake of trading sleds with my wife last night. I spent most of today shopping for a thundercat for myself becase I dont think I'l be getting my sled back anytime soon.

Nope! His ZRT rides MUCH better than my Polaris Ultra. Of course it doesn't hurt that his is an 800 either. Why is it that I found out he got the better sled at the end of the season? :cuss:


Of course it just gives him a good excuse to buy a new sled. Couldn't keep his 800 ZRT and just get me a different one... Noooo.... :rolleyes:

I can see it now: "Dad - I need a sled like yours!"
 
This is in Houghton Hancock this past weekend with Matt Miller on a 1356 ft hill confirmed on my sleds GPS. Matt shot up that hill like it was nothing more pictures soon, the views are awesome:driving:

Picked up a 99 136 T-cat today. We normally have a very short season here of ditch banging and field racing with some occasional bar hopping. Its impossible to justify spending the coin on new a new machine.

Sad thing is, we have more snow here in central OH than what was in the dry fields of Ann Arbor today.
 
Here are the first batch of the Houghton Hancock Tour 2010:driving:
