First ATV ride of the season

Out this afternoon for an ATV ride down to Sunshine Lake at the Beauty Lake Rd. Took the new snowmobile trail down to the Beauty Lake Rd but stayed on the ATV trail at the north end and connected to the old trail further down. The new snowmobile trail follows all the swampy areas while the old trail is rough its a lot drier. The water at the Calcite Ck. crossing wasn't very deep, much like all the water levels this year.
Great trip, nice weather saw a few grouse some wolf tracks, moose sign, stayed warm and dry what more could you ask for. All together return trip from the house and back 70km.

I haven't been on an ATV for 15 years or more. We kids used to tear around the countryside and dirt roads on our 4 wheelers racing and exploring and what not, but that last time-I was too chicken to get past second gear. This weather has been quite strange lately in our neck of the woods too.
