Anyone interested in a winter meet? Also anyone with a sled, there's a lot of good trails for those in the winter. Also a ski area nearby.

I don't have a sled, but would love a ride on one. I am interested in getting one, but still looking and learning.

We had a winter meet here a couple years ago, and there's a thread on that with photos and video. Not a lot of trails for the Jeeps, but a pretty area. Can be a a challenge just getting here in winter.

I was thinking meet on a Saturday for breakfast or lunch, get some photos, then go from there. Some might go snowmobiling, some might go skiing, some go for a caravan ride, whatever. But I'm open to whatever suggestions you might have.

Maybe we'll make some new posters. Ask Butch or Todd about that.

Interested? Absolutely. Seriously consider it? Not until I move closer... But I bet you get quite a group together this year

Any interest folks? Sometime in early 2012 I would guess.

Hopefully we'll have snow to play in again. I've had snow several times this year already, but nothing lasted. Should be snow soon though.

We have snow! I guess if no one is interested, I'll just let this die.

No dying! Depending on what you have planned I might actually be able to start hanging out now. Finally getting back on the board and hanging out. I moved back to Harrisburg, PA in Apr 2010, but sorta forgot about this board for a while. Hope all is well for everyone!

I'm still willing to have a meet, just doesn't seem like a lot of interest. Snowmobiles were running on the weekend, but my drive was still pretty easy to get up. Was pretty though with the snow, I posted a video from Friday in the off-road thread.

Would be nice to get some Patriot folks together.

Sure would like to see a few more folks interested, but last time there were only 3 patriots, Me and Todd and Butch, and that was fun.

If folks who might be interested would let us know here, that would be great.

If you ride snowmobiles, the local club has an event the first weekend of February, and that weekend would be fine for me.

Potter County Vintage Snow Fest

Potter County Snowmobile Club
February 3, 4, & 5
Oval Track Vintage Racing

Makes me wish I had a sled. One day when I can afford another new toy.

No dying! I am looking for other Riots to meet up with as well. I travel into Philly and Princeton for work and wouldn't mind a little drive for a meet.

The little 2 inches of snow we had recently didn't do me justice. I want to really plow through some deep stuff if it would only snow like last year. I don't have a snowmobile but am interested in it or going snowboarding or similar side activities.

I'm tempted some days when I see fellow patriots on the road to pull up and say hello :Racing:

Nearest ski area, is about 10-15 mins away, Ski Denton

There is one weekend in February that will not work for me, otherwise any weekend will do. If folks want to list which weekends are better for them, etc, we can work out a date.

Sure would be nice if Todd and Butch would come again, and maybe Gaze this time too. Todd and Gaze are also in Philly.

Winter meets are fun, but I'm open to anytime.

might head to Wellsoboro in March, have a buddy up there, we like to get stuck on the single lane logging trails through the game land with no cell service

March would work ok for me.

Would be cool to get a few more folks together.

Getting a decent snowfall today, and very cold. Not sure it will be enough for the Snowmobile clubs big weekend next weekend though.

It's enough to make the driveway fun though.

Would be nice to get a few more folks together. Other than a few weekends, I can meet almost any time. March could still have some snow, but it's been a tough year for the snowmobiles, with a lot less snow than normal this year.

We have had snow dustings for the past couple days only totaling maybe an inch or two at most. I want last years snow storms!

Keep me in the loop about ze meets. It would be far but we'll see.

Had about 6 inches on top of my hill, less in the lower areas, on Sunday.

Here's a link for the Snowmobile club's snowcam, still looks like a couple inches anyway. Can be deceiving though, since my driveway will have ice under the snow, and can be tough with only a couple inches, sometimes.

I'd take the ride. After the lift and tires are on, hopefully within the next couple of weeks. Snow may be out of the question. we just might have to wait till we get some good mud.

Well, I'm always there, so as long as we can get a few folks together, we can meet up.
