They were starting to get ice up in NH in the higher elevations. These 50+ temps aren't helping....isn't looking much better in the next couple of weeks either  |

You may still get your wish....after tomorrow the extended forecast shows no night time temps above freezing in the vicinity of some of your favorite northern areas......with the week of x-mas dropping into the single digits......
Granted this is new england and it still a bit in the future....but hope springs eternal  |

one can only hope... I am working on a new transport system for my portable and main sleds ( revised addition of the Smitty sled, kevin..).. not only does it keep the house off of the ground for transport.. i can load gear or my other sled on top of it... I added a set of removable drop down wheels for crossing roads or snowless terrain.. I'll post pictures when i am done |

this is pretty sweet.... put together and take down with out tools if I want to break down the frame which the house rides on... spring loaded pins ( like a snow plow pin) for the drop down wheels in case i have to cross roads otr over frozen ground.. if I dont need the wheels, I remove one clip and the pin holding the wheel assembelly comes off..... I made my ski's.. I should finish tonight... |
