Snowmobiling with my Dad- from Daniels Summit to Strawberry Lake and back (50 miles ish)
It was the most perfect day to go on this snowy adventure- the skies were clear and the sun was out. The snow was a little plowed over but that didn't stop us from tearing it up on and off the trails. Last time Dave went snowmobiling it was just him and my Dad so it was a little different to have a passenger on his back the whole time... and let's just say he didn't restrain much and I squeeze really tight.It seemed like every time we went off the trail, even a little bit we tipped over and would get stuck in lots and lots of heavy snow. Dave and I took a crash and when my Dad came to help, he went down too far and got his machine stuck even more, on the left: you can see Dave trying to get down to him in the valley.
This was my dad's first day with his new toy so he was pretty excited to get her engine running and take her for the first of many rides. He originally bought these snowmobiles to use at our cabin property at Gooseberry up the Spanish Fork Canyon. Well, the cabin isn't built yet... it's a family project and won't be done for a few years so he isn't up there much in the winter yet but he's still uses them for fun whenever he can, much to my mother's dismay.
