:snow2_smi its completely dumping on the colorado rockies today. should be getting nice and filled in up there now.

is anyone interested in a event sticker for this? i have a rough draft that i think you guys might like. and they would probably only cost a few bucks each to have them made depending on size.

Vail dates are confirmed and set 17th -19th of March please call me if you have any questions about the Vail meet 7196501901

I might be in for those dates if my schedule allows. If the group hits up Zuma, I would be up for some AT skiing (maybe back at the head of Deer Creek), if avalanche conditions allow.

I am new to the crowd here but live around Vail, and have Tucker 1642 that I would love to bring along. I will need to register it for use but should have no problem. Keep me posted. Also Where will we be unloading and heading out from?

great to see more interest in this. i believe some will be parking/unloading on top of vail pass and some will be unloading at camp hale. not sure on the parking situation for montezuma but i cant wait to get back in there. I did powerline clearance in the montezuma/arapaho basin area a few years back. beautifull in the winter.

I have to admit I'm in love with the freighter. My wife even gets alittle jealous sometimes lol . I've had to put another $1700 into it recently and i'm still not done but it is in my mind the most iconic snocat out there :biggrin:.
I still need to put all new fuel lines in it and clean the tanks this weekend. I have to leave it over night after the fuel pump failed . We rode everyone out in a couple trips on the new sled . I went back the next day with a friend and rescued her . Shes back home safe now waiting for more attention .

Upload to youtube and paste the links. Looking real nice!

Although an arctic cat mountain sled on that trailer might be a better fit. Cats play well together!
