Got SNOW?

Recommended Posts

DMESS

One of my other "passions" that I greatly enjoy is snowmobiling. Living in South Central PA makes it a little difficult, but I manage non the less. We have many areas available in PA for sledding as long as Mother Nature cooperates! I truly love the ability to access winters beauty and enjoy getting out during a period when most would prefer to stay indoors. Of course, it's another motorized toy to tinker with too!

Yours truly

Excellent pictures, D!

I particularly like the shot down onto the Susquehanna River from the lookout at Hyner. That destination was included in a few of the Sunday drives when I was a young'n, and although I haven't been up there in a few years, I've made the drive a few times just for something to do. :whistle:

Very cool pics Dustin & thanks for shareing...although it looks like it might be a cold hobby? :whistle:

The pics over the mountains are the best...here in my area nothing but flat horizon.

Always enjoy the mountains....but have to admit after a few days of not seeing a long view of the horizon I get weirded out. :WRS:

Very nice Dustin. Growing up we had a 1969 Kometic with a CCW 340 engine and a 70/71 SkiDoo 399E. Was always a lot of fun riding, not so much fun breaking down all the time..... Great pictures!

WOW! Those views are amazing. Even If you didn't like snomobiling- Those views would be enough to want to go. I used to sled all the time, When I started having kids they got sold. Really breathtaking. Thanks for sharing.

What you can't see is the 40 mph wind gusts ripping through there that day! Now THAT was cold! We had already put on about 140 miles that day and this was the rap up. Quite a view indeed. I love getting to North Central PA whenever I can. I'd move up that way in a heartbeat if it wasn't for work, family, etc. Getting too crowded down here and so much Maryland influx.

It really isn't cold till your stopped for awhile. Modern riding gear does a fine job and most times I'm sweating my tail off while riding!

Glad you guys enjoyd the pics. :whistle:

Cause' the ol Safaris don't have Ohlins suspension, heated hand/thumb warmers, or make 153 horse power! :whistle:

I was wondering that myself... so... the suspension and handwarmer things can be modified... but I can't see getting 150+ HP out of one of those old Kohler Two-cycles! :whistle:
