I chose sledding this May 30th. Our endless winter continues!! Had a great storm blow through NE Nevada the last couple days. A good friend called after the clouds cleared late in the day, we made a late afternoon run up Lamoille Canyon and found some outstanding conditions. Thought I'd share a few pictures. It sure is fun having a great mountain in your backyard, we may be riding into July by the looks of the snow depth at roads end. :face-icon-small-hap

I think you should go for both. one for sledding in the morning and water skiing in the late afternoon. that would be awesome.

I have done both in one day in years past, I think this year will be another. Air temps for summer snowmobiling are typically 40's in the morning and 55 to 65 around noon. If you ride an old school sled like I do you, you need to jet down a size or two in the spring and run hoodless to keep belt temps down. Should be another fun ride this weekend, it's been snowing the last couple days again.
