damage caused during a week at salmon la sac


well, this is it. after a week of vacation in salmon la sac the damage to the collection of Benjamins was the easy part! Take a couple views of these blunders, I cant quite describe how it is that seans sled was righted after this mess but it started up first pull after some serious work in a running stream.

Vince has the new red hood and at this pace he might want to get another extra. double click the picture and then look for the icon in the bottom right, click that to see the close up of the despair on poor vinces mug.


I got this sweet bruise on my arm after I tried to do a triple back flip.( I think I can nail it next time!)

Muk got his ski-doo buried trying to follow me too close in the DEEP stuff.
Josh here got stuck after him Brent and I tried to head up to Gallagher and with the conditions so warm a bridge had melted away. We had to turn around on the spot. We tried a new path down but josh dumped it in the river.




This mess above hopefully speaks for itself. This hellraiser is Mr. Andersen. I cant understand how this happened to him. Brent and I were at the trailhead and he was right behind.Then next thing we cant find him ? WE turn off our sleds and we don't hear his motor? We yell out and after a few tense moments we heard his voice from down in a ditch fifteen feet below the trail. miracousley the 700 cat dove nose first into a drainage ditch that was a torrent of rushing water! A couple love birds came riding up and lent us a rope and Brent performed a sled pull digging a trench big enough to walk in! To my utter amazement we solved this problem in less than an hour.please note Brent got stuck a number of times but I did not photograph this due the fact he cracked a rib!

Zachary - I had NO IDEA this stuff was this gnarly! I had some vision of a serene little ride thru the snow!!! Clearly I was dissillusioned!
