Well we got dumped on last weekend and now we got to much for the kingquad. Measured about 14-16 inches.
I went about 1 actual mile and the speedometer red over 12. Picture is in my album.

 

Must be wet snow, the front probaly likes to lift up when the snow packs under there. I did a trip in January a few years back and it started to snow with us being back into the mountains 20 miles and I had to plow a trail all the way out for us, I would go a couple hundred feet until the front would just lift up and then back up and plow forward again. It was a very long trip out and I had not brought any goggles and the snow was mixed with ice and it stung my eyes realy bad. It was fun though and would do it again in a heartbeat, if the snow just got to deep I would go for my snowmachine and sled like my friends did to get his king Quad from his cabin, except he had to wait until the rivers froze first. I looked at your pictures and see that one guy is paralyzed, it is nice that quads are able to get people out into what they could not see, I rember reading about a guy who would use his quad to get to his tree stand and his family would hoist him up into it and he bow hunts deer this way.

get this 2 days ago here on the eastern shore of maryland it hit 68 degrees but tonight we are suppose to get a "wintery mix" with ice accumulation of up to 3 inches i wish the weather would just make up its mind

 

Yeppa thats what the snow was doing-lifting the front up.I kept backing up and getting a run and go for maybe 200 feet before i had to back up again.Wazzz a long mile.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

MudRover, I could not agree more. Normaly it is -10 to -20 for the winter festival right now and it is 35 and it was 42 and raining on saturday when I was in the Valley and it started out with icy road conditions that ended up with standing water before the trip was over. AlaskaBoy.
