 DAY 1 We stop to stretch on Hi-Way 11 north of Prince Albert about half way to Weyakwin. That is Montreal Lake in the back ground on the horizon. |
 Not far down the trail on the first warm day yours truly... |
 ...has already managed to slid off the trail on the +5 marbles! |
 We take this trail SW of Weyakwin that takes us across the road then onto "Drag Race Lake" |
 Ok and Percy warned us that there was a spring feeding this lake, first I get bogged down then MR 81SS parks right on the gushing 1 foot ice fishing hole in the snow swelling with water from below. |
 Water skipping 101!! LOL |
 Making a bunch of passes the other guys mash the snow into water so we have a chance of spinning our way out thru the slush out here on the ice below. |
 |
 |
 |
 OK after our wet to the knees adventure we head back to South Bay and our cabin to warm up. |
 We stop along the way to look at this trappers cabin. Geez were not even cold anymore hmmm... |
 |
 Ya ya just don't put your pants to close to the chimney or you will melt them. |
 Now that we are feeling so warm dry and toasty I think we will go out for a spin on South Bay and entertain a couple hundred school kids who are up for the afternoon ice fishing. |
 Wrong, bad move we entertained them alright after this barrel roll (multiple times I might add, same incident though) that smashed the hood all to you know what! |
 We were (I WAS)given a standing ovation mind you for the high speed maneuvers thru the slush and snow on South Bay! |
 Just lucky there was no serious injury, times have changed. |

 Day 2 time...who knows but we have circled around on Cheeyas Lake to an exit off the middle west side. |
 |
 Near here we come across an old Chevy parked in the bush! What a story, how did it get here? |
 |
 |
 Then there is the always well meaning friendly gesture! |
 |
 |
 |
 Stuck in a large snow bank just off the lake. |
 |
 And we actually stop to eat. By hiding bears deep in the snow I am able to keep a reserve going to last me the day. |
 And this guy was wanting to know where I kept finding the beers! |
 On the afternoon of the 2dnd day the temps were up but the open lakes were cool and windy. |
 |
 |
 Who knows if it was this lake, where I discovered I had lost my camera AGAIN man and a quick loop of the lake didn't turn it up, |
 ...but heading out on the next trail I lead and found it in like 50'! Just about got rear ended in the process! |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 That Coors bag hung in there for 3 days, keeping it up on the tank was murder. |
 |
 Yours truly has over sped this trail resulting in both skis folded in at the middle. |

 Day 3 we start the morning off with a hearty barley breakfast! |
 |
 There's that Coors bag. |
 We head up Weyakwin Lake past a big ice heave and travel up the Weyakwin River. |
 Coming back down the river yours truly goes into a pretty fast ice skid into some trees sticking out of the river bank. Ouch more damage |
 Dented up some running board and lower rear belly pan, didn't get to exited about waving my right arm around for a while either! |
 |
 Some one gets stuck inside the River bay looking out onto the lake thru the trees. |
 Where's all your sign gestures now? |
 Did I hear someone say help? |
 OK so someone is going to help him. |
 Now after a launch like that you should just roll out and glide up onto the snow. |
 Nope WOT digging in. |
 May be another swig of that wine skin will help! |
 Man I have no memory of this photo, |
 ...but I see in the close up that someone is down on the ground! |
 This was a particularly large tree in a forest of small stuff on the East side of the lake. |
 And to top it off this tree showed a lot of evidence of being burnt al long time ago. |
 |
 |
 OK if you open your mouth I will spray in the contents from my wine skin! You get the picture! |
 Out of the forest the snow pack still remains on the trail everyone had been using. |
 |
 Back in the bush the snow is fine! |
 |
 Can't stay in the saddle hey! |
 Holy there is... |
 ..a lot going.. |
 ...on in these photos! |
