Sledding fun with injuries.

. Paul Gibbs(ripntear) and myself were able to get out again. He is still turboless so he was on the 900 King Cat again. I think he is starting to like the sled. We just made a quick trip up the the Coq.We just decided to go up and play in the trees in the Mt. Henning area.

While playing in the trees Paul seen what looked like a good kicker and wanted to hit. So I pulled out my camera and this is what happened.










As you can see it did not go so well. It turned out the kicker was actually a vertical wall of rock disguised with some snow. LOL. The snow broke and traction was lost.  The pictures look harmless enough but the sled piled into Paul`s upper thigh pretty hard. It put a goose egg the size of grapefruit and bruised up pretty good as well.

That pretty much put an end to the day. Besides his injury, earlier in the day over at the superbowl  I sprained my wrist, more on that in another post. So with Paul not being able to really stand on the sled we limped back to the trailer.

It was a great day though, it was sunny earlier in the day and we got to play in the tress in unmarked snow it was deep and a lot of fun.
