You have a very rough life, don't you? Looks like more fun.

 

I traded it for money. This life doens't pay very well.

I do work long hours in the summer with little riding time so I try to catch up during the winter.

 

Yeah, that looks rough. Where do I sign up?

I am surprised that I have been soo busy that I have done very little riding this winter.

I really do need to get out more.

 

You've got to get a helmet mount for your camera work one of these days. For a quick second I thought the quad threw you.

 

It's not that tough of a quad.

almost 30 days later and no snow
and it took half the time

 

Here’s a picture of a little tiny ice structure I took at one of the mines here at Big Rock. You can see the tracks and the old ore car are still in the mine.

Look at how thin the stem is at the bottom, totally awesome.

And here's a video of me riding up to the mine adit. If you look close at the end of the video just to the right of the timber in the center of the adit you can see the little ice stalagmites on the ground.

I'm sure that the weather conditions have to be perfect for these little things to form.

They were just plain cool.

 

Looks like yet another great place to ride.

 

the little ice formations were actually the best part of the ride
