Hendrix Mountain Ride

Started out with 6 riders on Saturday, ended with 5.

Don't worry the 6th rider made it home safely.

Interesting day. Experienced every weather type from sun to almost white out conditions.

All three major food groups on display, except for Yamaha.

Arctic Cat - carbs

Polaris - protein

Doo - Fruits & Vegies

Yamaha - fats 

Male and female (yin/yang) represented too!

Found some pockets of good snow when the visibility cooperated.

    Looks like the loggers left us a heart on the hillside behind.

Into the Deep

Saturday\s ride to Big T - Deep!  Nice day!! Awesome workout!!!

There isn't enough snow

Checking out the view

Beauty day :)

When nobody was stuck!

Let's see what kind of trouble we can get into over there

No worries - it's just a dusting

70 km day. One rider was in the red fuel zone on the way down. Energy level probably matched.

One of those days when everything lined up - good weather and snow!

Sheridan Trails

 Great to see so many of our new riders out yesterday (Saturday). The club has about 17 new members this year. If you have suggestions on where you want to ride and whether a weekday or weekend works better for you, please send an email to the club at ilsnowmobileclub@gmail.com

This is your club too, so make it work for you! Otherwise the more experienced riders will probably choose "deeper snow" riding areas

Not the best snow conditions yesterday, could certainly use a reset BUT really good company!

That's what it's all about.

Lunch stop  (the best stop) - Little Green Lake Road area

Checking out the old cabin at Jack Frost Lake - sign allowing the Club to use it.
I guess the packrats think they're club members!
Roof has seen better days.

This is only the 2nd time the Club has been on the Sheridan trails in the past 2 years. Fires and blow down has taken a toll. Could use some clean up.

Created a diversion - NOT lost!!

If you haven't been riding yet, it's almost February. Start the sled!

Wish you were here (not really!!)

Yesterday was one of those near perfect Cariboo days. All that was missing to make it perfect was fresh powder and the Blog Editor (tee hee)

The Prez says: 

"The trail in was a gnarly one. Worse when riding out, when the body is played out.

Group of 9 today, a good ride. 8k of freshly groom trail, that was really nice coming out."

That smile says it all

The positive side of shift work

Fear doesn't get you anywhere

Tell me why you don't like winter again?

Writing in the snow

The view is pretty awesome from the top
