Gotta love it when those trees jump out at you...

Pretty much, caught the tree with the left ski. Aside from a bruised shin that didn't heal up for over a month I was fine. Had to ride the sled the rest of the day like this....



Couldn't turn the skis left at all, luckily I could carve left still. Ended up breaking the other trailing arm off towards the end of the day as well, right where it bolts to the tunnel.

Wasn't actually stuck here but it is the closest I've ever been to being stuck. Little gas and drove right out of it.

I've been stuck more times than I can count lol... It's no fun. I never really think to take pics though. I'm usually trying to hurry to get it out before people notice.
