They opened the high mountain pass last weekend where I do a lot of my track rid'in, so I headed out yesterday to check out some of the High Mountain Trails ... when I left the truck at 0830, the temp was 33* F ... and when I returned at 2:30pm, the temps was 34* F .... dad-gum heat wave I tell ya !!

23 May 2012 and what a great day in the mountains. It was cloudy, sunny, wind blow'in betwix 25 & 40mph, snow pellets (Dang those things hurt) & snow squalls to downright blizzard conditions at times .... Did I mention it was a GREAT DAY !!

That is, until towards the end, I ran into some guy from Missouri in his SUV, street tires, no shovel, & stuck in a drift !!

Another ATV'er showed up & we got him out with our winches & tow straps tied to a big pine tree !!

Did some rid'in in a logged out area & then onto the trails & the many snow drifts ... they're so much freak'in fun to play on !!

Hope you enjoy the video ... And if anyone is look’in for speed runs or fast rid’in ... ya won’t find it here !!

      Just some friendly advice on new tires. Check with your ATV dealer. 
      There are so many aftermarket sites, Revco, Royal Distributing, Partzilla, and on and on. Even with their “ big sales”, my local Canam dealer’s REGULAR price beat the tire prices of the 3rd party sellers! People often assume the Dealership will cost them more, but I found this not to be true!

      Pine Mountain Trails ATV Park (Oklahoma) Ride Report & Trail Guide
      Located in the rugged Kiamichi Mountains of southeastern Oklahoma, Pine Mountain Trails ATV Park offers over 70 miles of natural, backcountry-style off-road trails across 1,700+ acres. This is not a groomed park—it's a raw, terrain-driven riding experience built for real off-road enthusiasts.
      Trail System Deep Dive
      The trail system is designed around long loops, minimizing dead ends and maximizing ride time.
      Rocky climbs and descents Creek crossings and mud sections Tight wooded trails and open play areas Natural terrain with minimal artificial features Ride Conditions
      Conditions vary significantly:
      Dry: Fast, dusty, and loose on climbs Wet: Mud-heavy, slick, and highly technical Camping & Riding Experience

      Does anyone use GPS, whether on a device or app to record their ATV trail rides? I have been thinking about a section where our members can upload let's say a .gpx file and share their rides on a google map for others to see where there are riding areas. Not sure if this is something of interest or how much it would be used, so just trying to get an idea.
      Importing routes from files like xml, lmx, tour, freshroute, gpx, kmz, kml

      I have replaced the cracked stator cover on my non-running 2006 LT-F400F that I purchased recently, checked all the shafts vs the service manual and pics and advice here.  I replaced missing gears, bushings and washers, made sure that truth marks were all aligned properly, that the shift cam springs felt like they returned properly, etc.  IAfter installing the new stator cover I checked the transfer lever for proper movement from L-H-R and then cranked it up.  Happily, it runs and changes gears well in L,  but it will not shift into H or R for anything.  I have opened it back up and am going back through it looking for the missing puzzle piece(s) but how can I best check that I have everything right this time before buttoning it back up?

      I live about an hour west of Savannah and was wondering if anyone knew of places to ride in this area. Only place I know of is in North Georgia, about 4.5-5 hours from my house. Would like to find something closer.
