sounds like a fun trip! I was exhausted just reading about loading all those sleds.
so much slush, have your past trips been that slushy?
interesting about the open water areas, Bear falling through with his skis ON and able to get out in one minute!
that's the scary part about lake ice... you just never know that it's actually frozen even thought it looks like it.
can't wait for the photos!

I can't believe you do this! Must be an acquired taste, like strong cheese. On days of below, plus 10 temps, I am working on staying inside. Those days are the reason God created the NFL. You go man.

Thanks for sharing.
Brings back the memories!!!


The two loudest sounds known to man: a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and a gun that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.
