No chopper available for a dead 1000 in our group equaled a lot of this on Sunday....
Pretty cool unit....winch is $899.00. Out of BC. 150 of 3/16" cable for a 4000lbs pull or 250' of 1/8" for a 2000lbs pull. Good for the river if you could keep it dry.

We went to Vale.....hit Allen on Friday and was going to do Chappel on Sat until buddy's brother in law squeaked his 1000(2nd time in less than 100miles). He rented a brand new XM on Saturday and we tried to drag it out with just man power and machines. No go in the deep ass snow we found. We were way down in untouched territory.
I love the new Proclimb. I put a full SLP and some Dalton weights in, and its perfect. Prob put a vent kit on and call it good. It's my first 162 and with a 2.6" track it chews. Although I did ride the rental XM(0.3km on it when we picked it up) and it was sweet. Really like the T motion and the motor was great mid and top. Seemed weak on the bottom, but I'm sure they have a break in mode or something. Plus it had stock exhaust.
Saw another racers truck there but never ran into him, just reckonized the Bucholltz Finacial sign on the window.(Fasten your Bucholz) he had the sweetest enclosed trailer I have ever seen behind it.

We were out there too. Shredded up clemina for 2 days. Ran into those Bucholtz boys a few times. Snow was unreal.

Oops....check out this lil get off I had on Saturday. I was heading to the right of the rock, changed my mind real quick and tried going left of it....ended up going right for it and launching a pretty good vertical distance. All was good, had lots of people to help me get it back down un scathed....

Wasn't too bad...almost rode out of it, but was in a uncontrolled Superman position Got me a nice purple lump the size of a apple beside my knee now! Was a good trip....no damage to the sled...bones and bruises heal.
