The Artic PA ride was a great time. Snow was probably too deep for pilots on virgin snow, however the beaten paths prolly would have been navigable. Weather was good, about 25 degrees, had a few flurries in the afternoon. There was about 6-8" on the ground from Friday 12-9 storm. Nice thing about the snow is it covers the potholes and rocks to make for a very smooth ride. Traction was not a problem on all but the steepest inclines. The best part was no coal dust! First time we ever left the 901 without making a mess of their bathroom. The snow really changes the landscape making navigation from memory difficult. Luckily I had the GPS track log from last ride and used that to find our way around. All in all I would rate this ride very high in terms of fun. Sliding around in 2wd was a blast! Heres a few pics, hopefully Pilotnut will post some of his, he got some great sunset action pics. We are definatly planning to do this again soon.

Cool pictures, Pilotnut has more?That seems to be a huge place to ride, is that pit active in the weekdays?
I see the machines and stuff, are there certain areas that are not accessable to you guys that would prohibit you from riding down some more trails by chance?
