I wanted to leave feedback for the muffler I got, but it's not on there.

How about a drawing for that Hagglunds? Man I want one of those soooooo bad. Even at $1.85 the 1-2 MPG is a bit hard to handle though.

That and the damn greenies are trying to get all the snow machines and coaches banned in Yellowstone, which is where I think it would be great to take one.

Back in Christmas 1986 I got to ride in the front of one the Haaglunds they were using as snow coaches at Yellowstone, for the trip from Mammoth Hot Springs to Old Faithful. That was fun, but the old Bombardiers with their big V8s in the rear were really cool! Riding one of those back to the lodge after a day of XC skiing, standing up with your head and shoulders out of the roof hatch, that's a memory I'll not soon forget.

Funny you should say that...the reason I pickup up the Hagglund was to do a winter run to Yellowstone this winter. That was until I was informed by the park that the only way I would be allowed in was If I paid for a "yellowstone guide" to guide my tour. Apparently, they will no longer allow private snow coaches. Oh well, La Porte CA this winter it is...if they can get some snow!

Not in a raffle, but it is up on Ebay....

Cheers,

Scott

I was in the early planning stages of starting a part time touring business in YSNP. My plans were to use the hagglunds. The prices of fuel were one issue, but politics was the final blow to my idea.

There are no available concessionaire permits to be had for a snow coach/machine tour company. They way the winds are blowing there may be no more motorized touring of Yellowstone, period.

Even the Blue Ribbon Coalition has hit a wall with this one. Too many years of idiots on tweaked up sleds chasing bison, tracking up meadows, etc. It really ticks me off because one of the reasons I looked forward to moving out here was to buy a sled and go up to YSNP in the winter. Now you can only do this if you hire a guide.

"For the enjoyment of the people" is engraved on the gate at Gardner, MT. Sure seems like their policies are interfering with this credo. Unfortunately our national parks are underfunded and can not properly protect themselves. The answer is to ban all the law abiding people who respect and treasure the resource instead of cracking heads on those that don't.
