THE ROCK!!!


On March 13 we went to Mirror Lake snowmobiling with Kolby and Amy. The season is coming to a end so the snow is getting a little rocky. So Calee found out first hand, that snowmobiles and rocks do not play well together. Calee hit a rock and flipped herself OVER the handle bars landing face first in the snow. When she finely came to she realized Kolby was standing over her poking at her helment asking her if she was conscious ( Calee ! Cal ! you conscious Cal ) In the picture the rock does not look like it would put up much of a fight however, all the snow around the rock was quick sand snow where you sick instantly, causing her ski to sink and hit the rock. She hurt her arm pretty good. So after making a fire for her and having some lunch, we started our 5-7 mile journey out of the trees to get her to the main trail. It took a few trips of shuttling people back and forth to get all the snowmobiles out. After a visit to the doctor we found out she did not brake her arm, however she pulled all the ligament. Looks like her riding season is over. For the snowmobile after a visit to the garage we found she broke the trailing arm and possibly a ski on the snowmobile.
