St. Lawrence snowmobile shuffle!
I haven’t been up north in a while, so trucking it to Horseshoe Lake got the call Tuesday. Watch out for a couple of doozie rollers with your truck and trailer on the upper part of Route 421! Managed to start riding by 10:30am. I was treated to a few inches of fresh pow-pow. Wasn’t […]

There was good fresh snow cover to give the total mid-winter luster under a […]
