Congratulations to Nate from Scarborough, Maine for winning Januarys’ Powder Shot of the Month. The photo was taken in Sandy River Plantation, Maine. Looks like some sick powder out there, good work dude.

…..And the runner up photo goes to Matt from Litchfield, Maine.

please excuse the long blackness after the vid.

Jan’s PSM Contest has come to a close, the photos are under review and we will have a winner for everybody shortly!

To say this weekend was picturesque would be an understatement! The weather gods rained on Team STE this weekend with perfect temperatures and amazingly clear skies! The snow finally setup and added some much needed base/crust to the off trail. We found some amazing backcountry on Stub hill and Rump Mtn, and made some new friends along the way. Mishaps we’re few, and the riding was amazing!

Stay tuned for the Powder Shot of the Month contest! One more weekend left! Be sure to send in your photos by FEB 1ST. Also be sure to check back for a teaser to the STE’s first video.  

The mud-splash graphic is a good look Bruce.  

How does the old saying go? You gotta pay to play.  Thank god I took my ring gear off, or I would have some serious clutch/motor issues to contend with. Luckily the clutch rubbed on the tunnel just slightly, any more of a bend, and there would be serious issues. With a little shop time and some 1/4 alum plate bracing, we’ll be back to 100% in no time! Stumps kill

What a weekend! what started off as a liesurely trail ride on Thursday, turned into full-blown backcountry on Saturday. The weather conditions weren’t the greatest, but we managed to tack on some serious off trail mileage. The snow was plenty deep, and due to the warmer weather, the snow is starting to settle down and making for a decent base. We all had a few stupid-stucks, but not real issue’s to speak of.

The only mishap was some bulkehead damage to my sled, damn stumps. Pictures of the carnage soon to follow.

Quinn, Matt & Tim, it was a pleasure to meet & ride with you guys! Even better was the after party Hopefully we can all do it again soon.

This video looks sick.

Sort of rough ride this weekend. Sleds not starting, broken pull cords, bad gatorade, and oh yea I hit three stumps and went over the bars twice. Otherwise still some great snow in the North Country.
