A 3 1/2 Pound Rubber Mallet...

 When the lake is covered in overflow..... the mists hang over the valley.
 Bryan cleans the Tobbogan and all the skidoos after certain snow conditions.  This 3 1/2 pound rubber Mallet does the job right.  We can also hoist up the back end of the skidoo and race the track.

 From experience Vikki has learned to clip both her "Lynx Paw Snowshoes" together and then bungie them down.  Also the first aid kit is clipped to the snowshoes.  The big plastic scoop shovel is held on by really heavy wire. Those small under your hood snow shovels are like using a spoon. More than a couple of times, she has looked back to find things missing.

Is the slush quite bad this year out there? You might have to mount your outboard on the back of your skidoo!
Ah, experience is a great teacher.

The moose picture was one of my favorites but the snow/cabin picture is nice. The lake picture, as well, is mystical.

When out in the woods I carry some big bandages, a whistle and my cell phone. Of course the debate is which arm is sawed off or under the tree...left side or right side placement. Truck keys are also left in the ignition and windows left down in case I'm lucky enough to make it that far. It's always prudent to consider bad options. I know that you carry some of the clotting solution. I was going to get some but then read that it was really for bad situations and destroyed tissue in the process of clotting. You, however, are much farther from the nearest EMT than I am.
