Saturday Afternoon at the Portage Restaurant

Our local watering place is the Portage Hotel (Restaurant). It’s a real neat pub at the junction of about four snowmobile trails. This is what keeps it going in the winter as hundreds of machines and the people on them pass through the parking lot. Many stop to rest for a while at this friendly, comfortable and unique warm place for coffee and perhaps a bite to eat.

Today was the warmest in several recent very cold ones, in fact almost bikini weather. Lots of people out for a ride.

Winter is a fun time of the year.

Snow Surface Clues

In the old West, trackers could tell how long ago, how may riders, whether they were right or left handed and so on.

Snow Surface Mono

Nowadays, it’s snow machine trackers who are making money working from the clues. (But not much!)
