Rather ride my Harleys to but its Minnesota and if nothing else its going to get cold soon. Put my bikes into storage and the snowmobile is siting in their place and ready to go. I know its going to get cold I just hope we get some snow with it this year. Sure would like to get more than the usual 2-300 miles on the sled this year.

My sleds are home, but with the forecast, didnt see any reason to rush and get them ready to roll.

 

I did go out last Thursday and brush the trail from the house out to the state trail (@ 2/3 of a mile).

Boy did the wind storm and aftermath do a number on it, took quite awhile and some serious chainsaw work to get it all cleaned out.  All ready to go now tho.

Ive got one of those sitting at the bird feeder right now eating like a pig. Not sure that is a sign winter is coming but he is definitely taking advantage of the nice weather to fatten up.

 

He!! ya, fat squirrel's and the size of White mans wood pile are all signs! :D

Hey it's coming. I saw a "sign" in the woods last weekend. The biggest, fattest, most obese squirrel I have ever seen in my life waddling around by my Deer stand. He's getting ready for something really big and bad! ;):lol:

I also have never seen so many red squirrels working so hard to gather food of late, and they are not even afraid of you at all. something wicked is coming our way.

late freeze is a good thing, the average late freeze ups in the metro, I believe 12 out of 15 winters have been cold and snowy.

I agree, I think in the last two weekends I must have easily seem over 100 Doe's a fawns in the ditches eating. It's crazy and their getting loaded up for something? ;)

Hmmmm  looks like the snow started to come this year and now left around here. Forecast isn't looking promising either. Heck if I didn't have my bikes in storage I would have taken a ride today. Hope the snow stays up on the range as it landed in my yard up there and just might take a ride up there when the trails open on December 1st

Saw lots of tracks in the ditches up in Xlake this weekend, but with the rain it will all be a bout gone, except the plow drifts. I spent 3 hours blowing the driveway on Friday, and should have just left it, haha! :) Now if the lakes will just be able to freeze before the next snow...

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
