Notes: K9 and OMMB ventured down to Burnt Sawmill Rd in hopes of finding ride-able conditions at Big River. Wrong. Well, mostly wrong. The first few miles, which included Archie and that trail that follows Carr River, Out and Back I think it's called, were real good. That was the last of clear trails we hit. At the end of Out and Back, I took New London Turnpike towards the fork to Sweet Saw Mill Rd. It sucked, pushed through snow and a giant tree or two down. Tried to take the trail around Sweet Pond, spent more time cutting fallen trees and more pushing through snow. Worst 7 miles I've ever ridden...no lie.
Good news, Jesse had a blast. Bad news, another storm on the way....I'm not going back to this area for a good long time!

Tidbits: Had the pleasure of helping out some of our National Guard who got their van stuck getting ready for a training exercise tomorrow. They had unlocked the gate on Burnt Sawmill Rd so I was able to 4x4 down to them and help get them out. They were very appreciative...wooraa.
