Snowmobiling at it's best......
That would have to be in New Brunswick. Pete and I went there last week together for three days. We had a lot of fun. The weather was really good. Thursday was a little cloudy and the trails were slushy, as it was above zero all day. But it froze hard overnight. So the next day the trails were froze solid. This presented a bit of a problem with lubrication for the track and cooling for the engine.
We decided not to leave until late morning. Which proved to be still problematic. But by mid afternoon , conditions were getting better. We had decided to go to Mount Carleton this day. When we arrived there, we were able to take the sleds right to the top.
The view was awesome. We could see for miles around. Above you can see Pete, on top of the world. To the left , a view from the mountain.
It was beautiful up there. How awesome is our God, that he created such beauty. You really got a sense of that up there.
This next picture shows how trucks and snowmobiles share some of the same roads. The trail up about four feet higher. And this would go for miles and miles.
And, all good things must come to an end. Here we are, packing up again for the trip home. We had a safe drive home and found all was well at home. But a lot of snow had disappeared on PEI. Only to see more snow again overnight. I guess our spring is not quite here yet. Contrary to what the calender tells us............

What a tease! Hope you have a great day Dad! Love you so much! Dianna XOXO cant wait to finally get home! :)
You were here and you didnt even tell me :o.. I guess you weren't real close by anyway... hehe. glad to hear that you actually got to go snowmobiling and that you had fun. The pictures were great!
That sure is worth packing up and heading to NB !!! Beautiful!
Glad you had a good time.
Just the pictures I was afraid of. Sure brings back memories of the very best trip I ever made. To say i'm feeling very, very, very, sorry for myself for not being there is the understatement of the year. Beautiful pictures indeed!
