Trail Conditions
Out and about, snowmobiling Indian Lake
Wanted to get out there another time to make the run up to Newcomb today. But first, I sniffed the other main arteries entering and leaving Indian Lake. C8/Sabael trail was my first look-see.

Tuesday’s ride rolled out from the compound, instead of hauling it. As much I can enjoy road trips, embarking on my snowmobile rides from the garage is twice as nice! My […]
