| Sledding in Cooke City, MT (2001-02 & 2002-03) |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I was introduced to a whole new breed of sledding this year (Winter 2001-02) ....EXTREME Mountain sledding in Cooke City, Montana. We made two trips there in 2001-02, two more trips in 2002-03, and we're hoping to go back in 2004!. Enjoy the photos! - Hodgie | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Breakfast was an important part of every day. We got our favorite waitress (Pam) to take a shot of us before we went out one morning. Eric, Jerry, Jeff, Brett, Me, and Rodney. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| This shot is of the back of Daisy Pass, where you drop into the back country to do some serious riding. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| A quick lineup of the sleds on Day 1 before we drop down Daisy Pass and into some untouched powder riding! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The scenery in Cooke City is breathtaking. This is a shot from out our bedroom window. What a view!!! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| I had to include at least one shot of my new ride! What an awesome machine it is. Quite a step up from the ride I had last year. It's a Polaris EdgeX 800 with a 136" track and 1.75" paddles - it's a rocket!!! ** (2003 UPDATE: This sled was put into a rock about the size of a VW Bug on the first trip to Cooke City in the 2002-03 season. I was unhurt but the sled was destroyed. So....I got a bigger and faster one to replace it!!!) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| A shot of me chillin' on the hill right across from Jerry (you can see Rodney leaning back in both pictures....weird, huh???) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| We had to make a pitstop on the first day to relax and catch our breath in the altitude (approx. 9000 ft.) Jerry, Eric & Rodney kick back for a little rest on the hill. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| On our second trip to Montana we drove the long way around and went through Yellowstone National Park. There were Elk, Bison, Wolves, etc. all over the landscape. These guys had some big racks! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
