  1. There will never be an ice fee Arctic in our lifetimes or our kids lifetimes…that’s total horse sh*t, bet on it.  How’s that for knowing.
     
     And worrying about pacific air in late October…is ridiculous.  And the upcoming pattern doesn’t look zonal that’s for sure.  And mid 50’s for highs with sun and clouds is gorgeous autumn weather…exactly what we have, and as it should be. Loving this weather. 
    Fangs are a bit premature, lol

  2. Don, Everything that Mark said is 100% spot on…couldn’t have said it better myself.  As he said, if you haven’t ever ridden one, see if you can take a little trip with a tour company…to see if it’s for you?  You’ll know it if you like/love it-the bug bites hard if it’s something you like. But if you’ve never ridden one, I’d go try it before investing any money.  
     
    It’s a great sport/hobby, but the machines are very powerful (even the lower more moderately powered ones aren’t slugs) and can get away from anybody, but especially so for inexperienced riders in an instant.  And the high/ultra performance sleds are absolute rockets on the snow, so you want to learn and gain experience safely and enjoyably.  As Mark said, the 600 ACE non turbo models by Ski Doo are fabulous to learn on, but the other brands(Polaris and Arctic Cat) have similarly powered/similar class sleds like that too.  Any other questions, just ask. :snowing:
    Wifes ace 600 has been good. Took it out last year for a day ride when my Poo was getting fixed. Fun sled. Ditching the 0.75" track and putting on a 1.3" lug.

  3. High 82F. Feels odd for October. Hiked Pleasant Mtn in Bridgton. Not much color change and what is changed is very dull and muted. Trail was bone dry with lots of yellow jackets.20251004_111022.jpg20251004_111104.jpg
