Wow, that much snow already. We were supposed to get a little lake effect in the snowbelt of NY but I doubt it will stay, the ground is way too warm. Either way great pic(s). I like snow or sun either way.

I agree Sten. Like the snow but would rather it held off at least until middle of next month for deer season(rifle). Scrambling to check on availability of ski conversion kits so I can run it here on the trails legally. Might have to get together with my bro, drink some beers, fire up the welder, and do some ski modding of our own!

I'll definitely post pics if I get around to making them. Doesn't look to difficult from what I've seen. Basically looks like a piece of plate steel with the bolt pattern drilled and a reinforced plate welded on the bottom of that which is attached to the ski. Then devise a system to bolt on the a-arm to keep it from rolling/flipping like the bracket on the tracks. Got my mind spinning now!

Yeah....Us from Maine get enough. NOT looking forward to endless plowing of snow. Although, I do love snow, just a couple of more weeks of relative warmth is all I ask.
