Winter X Games 2012: First Snowmobile Front Flip Landed

I probably won't be trying this any time soon on my M8...although I did launch my RMK 800 off a 50 foot cliff at full throttle up on Rabbit Ears Mountain in Colorado a few years back. I bailed in mid air and the sled impaled a tree on impact as I rolled down the mountain past it.
GOOD TIMES!!

This a link to the storyhttp://www.steamboattoday.com/news/2012/jan/22/search-and-rescue-trying-get-stranded-snowmobilers/

This is the area that I was in with a group a month ago in December. It can get nasty up there when it storms and the wind starts blowing. It appears that 2 men got stranded and then got caught in an avalanche while on foot. 1 died and 1 survived.

My condolences to the families.

Day 4 of Colorado Snowmobile Trip / December 2011

CLICK ON PICTURES TO ENLARGE!!

It was a great 4 day adventure to Northern Colorado. We chased the best snow we could find and didn't decide on our destination till the last minute as we were driving out west. It snowed the first 2 nights and we had clear cold days the whole trip. Everybody came home safe with good memories of riding the powder in the trees and the daily campfire lunch...GOOD TIMES!!

There's a creek under my sled. The sled bucked me off and decided to dive into the hidden creek. It's good to have alot of man power to lift and yank it out.

 Another stuck.

 Taking a break in trees. Two days ago the big Ski Doo had 0 miles. By the third day it was learning to love the powder. 2012 Ski Doo 800 / 163" long track.
