The logging road was rutted with soft snow and my toboggan keep falling into the rut. I slogged around and headed back to the truck after getting about halfway. I'm blaming the four-wheelers, not my age." Did you have wooden snowshoes? I find I can create a new track most of the time." Snowshoes might have helped. Between the ruts, the snow was crowned and the toboggan slid sideways into the tire tracks. It was rutted badly due to the warm weather and slushy snow cover... need colder temperatures. I had hoped to drive in.

bobbernumber3	12/30/2022 01:45PM Leaving tomorrow for four nights, Hiawatha National Forest. I expect to drive a logging road to my site. I have a nice stash of wood there.
