The wife and I ventured out today to seek new territory and to ride where the still is plenty of snow. Many clubs in the area has closed trails due to lack of snow. Her 1st ride out this year.
We dropped off at the top of the mountain in a pull-off at approx 9am, the temp in town was 13F. This trail C2 uses state forest land and is a horse trail. We rode some nice trail with probably a foot of snow.
There are many spurs that loop around the mountain to keep the ride fun. We tried to get to Downsville only to turn around with the town in site due to lack of snow.
End the ride with a comfortable 40 miles with no complaints. Then headed to town to the fairgrounds for the Radar runs and other winter events.
Lastly took a short trip to Delhi to pickup a 1980 JD Trailfire I ran across. This farmer has pulled it out of his barn for more room. Stopped the other day to see if he would part with it. Owned since it was new. Need a little TLC but did get to run shortly after getting home.
Now have more projects while wating for more snow as rain is in the forcast. A lot of it too. Maybe a vintage ride?
Post photos later

Definitely looks and sounds like you had a good time....heck any time out on the sled beats sitting in the house, right? Good to hear someone was out and about knocking out some miles and smiles! Those old JD's were pretty neat ol' sleds....
