Island Park, Idaho

[polarisrider1]

I have never been to Island Park. closest I've gotten there was West Yellowstone. What kind of riding does it offer? How does it compare to Togwotee or Cooke City or the Snowies?

Wayne,
check out the links under the schedule on my home page MOMSMOTORSPORTS.COM.
There are links to maps, downloadable pdf's. The riding area is huge with a ton of variety. Only visiting twice, we have explored and covered a small spec on the map.
Great areas to ride: on the north, lions head and two tops mountains. On the west, West Yellowstone and Black Canyon. To the south, Big Springs fishery area and the Mesa Falls. And to the east, Mt Jefferson and Sawtell. Do a google search on those area names and lots of stuff will come up, investigate before we get there.

Thank you Jacob! I will just follow you around like I did at Cooke City. That is a trip I will definitely do again with you guys. I missed the links but will check it out. Sled is in shop at Peacock $2980 in trail riding damage. Quicker I get back off trail the safer I feel. Lol

polaris rider what happend to ur sled 2980 sounds like trees were out walking dogs on trail

Right side belly pan, lower right side A arm, Side panel with decals, SLP can, exhaust springs and doughnuts, SLP hot air vent kits, windshield, headlight assembly, 4 motor mounts, some other mounting hardware, can temp shield, cold air intake assemby for brake cooling, other misc., rivets, etc. and labor. Didn't look bad at all to me other than the grey duct tape holding it all together. It will be ready for Island Park so they say at Peacock LTD. in Baldwin. They have always taken fantastic care of me there.

Oh! and the hood with all my trail permits was unscathed.

That was a perfect time to trade that tank in on a new Pro, what were you thinking Wayne??

Insurance said, no. They said fix it and cut the check to both the dealer and I. Now I have parts back ordered. I visited Peacock LTD. today and they said they will have all parts and back together for me in time for Island Park. Was border line on buying an 11 Assault 800 with 144 track. Need more track if I am going to spend the coin. Looks like snow checking around 3/22/11 a Pro RMK 155. will save the tank I have for my son to ride.

[polarisrider1]

Jacob, back on track, heading up to get sled today. They got it back together enough to ride. Headlight bezel is back ordered, going to use the one I got for now.

Not in the truck this time, just my sled will be. Smurfrider and I will be roughing it in his wife's Turbo BMW. We are praying for bare roads with that car. 44 hrs. before we go!

I love the sound of that turbo going west down 80 or 90. Ricks truck or Dougs wife's car. As long as it's west. The car gets 40 MPG. almost as much as my Harley.
