Our snowmobiling season in western Newfoundland is still in full swing.

Here's a couple of pix. There's some more in the photos & video section.
Enjoy!

I'm from the northern peninsula (St.Anthony area), we still have tons of snow left up this way too. A crowd of us went for a ride in over the hills today and it's still like in the middle of winter. The snow is holding up well this spring, I'm still leaving from my house without having to trailer.

Here are some more from western Newfoundland. I leave my garage, travel 4-5 minutes and then I'm on groomed trails that go right to the hills.

Sweet pics. I don't have pics to show, but I'm still riding. Was driving on the ocean this weekend. Will be driving for another month and a half, or so. :ridedoo:


I'm guessing you must be in somewhere in labrador? or the arctic? We still got a couple weeks left but I'm done for the year, I ripped my track and Don't want to risk riding on it and have a failure. Yesterday was my last ride and I was still leaving from the house, and we're still using the sea ice although some spots are beginning to get slushy.

You have snow? My map app says your only 6 hours and 46 minutes from Toledo. I have been driving 10 all year to houghton to ride. I have a cabin in Kalkaska and only made two trips this year (only a 4 hour drive). Are you having an unusual winter or is the snow always good their?

Borderline...I have been warned about butt cheeks before....

I'm alot farther than 6 hours and 45 minutes from Toledo lol. probably more like 6 days. Must be a place with the same name closer to you. I'm from the northern part of Newfoundland in Canada. We actually have less snow this year than we normally have but it's been alot colder than normal this year. There have been years where I could leave from my house in the first week of may and that includes crossing the ice in the harbour and driving through town, not ideal conditions, lots of bare ground and slush but still managable.

No, just a long day. Now I really feel like a goon. I read peninsula as Pennsylvania... Odd it worked out for me though on the map. You could have told me you had a foot of snow and I would be I'm a neighboring state by sunrise looking at the green grass. Guess if you want to believe something bad enough you'll let your mind fill in the blanks.
