March 21, 2015 Sooley Cabin Rip: (15 Photos)
15. Winter 2014-2015 unfortunately did not find the Shed-Headz Crew holding our annual winter trip to the Sooley family cabin, but some of us still managed to log a few miles in the Whitbourne area this past weekend. Saturday morning Bill, French and I headed West to Whitbourne for a day of ice fishing and snowmobiling.
14. We loaded up French's three place enclosed trailer and hit the highway choosing to offload the sleds just East of Whitbourne near the pole line. Bill was riding his 2010 Yamaha Nytro X-TX, I piloted Project Powertek REV and French swung a leg over the seat of his fathers Yamaha Multipurpose.
13. The weather was pretty well perfect with sunny skies, temps just above freezing, and no wind. We were sure glad we didn't pass up this day on the snow, especially with a heavy rain forecasted for the following day. Sooley and his kids were at the Sooley Family Cabin so we met them at the top of the pond.
12. French, Sooley and the kids ended up doing most of the ice fishing while Bill and I took advantage of decent snow conditions and tore up some powder all over the backcountry.
11. Bill was just itching to ride!

9. Fresh snow from last weeks storm settled nicely so traction was fantastic certainly not frozen hard. It was the best conditions I've experienced in this area in a long time. Bill and I spent the entire day finding hidden caches of snow covered hills and we laid tracks on every single one!
8. Our sleds pulled wicked wheelies the whole day, conditions were perfect for skimming water.

6. Unfortunately at some point the day has to come to an end, usually all too soon, loaded up and headed back at the truck.

At the end of the day Bill and I put over 50 km on the sleds freestyle riding, we all
celebrated our awesome day by stopping to Monty's Place for a Sharron
Burger on our way home.
Cheers, MIKE
