Where is Jack's Outback?
Wild Jack is one of Bernard's pals. This is one of
Jack's groomers, hard at work. Remember, when you are this far north,
you are really going to experience the great white Canadian North.
You aren't in Kansas anymore! This is the real deal. Go north from
Jack's place, then up to Chibougamau. It's amazing territory, and
the people are fantastic. Keep heading north, and you run out of white
people, then you meet the Eskimos, and they are very friendly too!
Eat some seal meat, and have a blast. Next stop, the North Pole!

Snowmobiles are big
deal at Big East Snowmobile Show
October 15, 2007; WEST SPRINGFIELD Mass- Across from some of
the newest snowmobiles equipped with powerful engines
and hand warmers was E. Wayne Campbell's replica of the earliest version,
made with wooden snow skis, an outboard engine and a track lowered
by hand. Pulling a rope designed to turn the skis, Campbell, of Maine,
said his replica of the first known snowmobile built in 1924 isn't
that different than those 1,900 people in Massachusetts use
every time it snows. The replica was the oldest of a number of
vintage snowmobiles found at the New England Snowmobile Exposition,
run by Snowmobile Association of Massachusetts over the weekend
at the Eastern States Exposition.

Selk’bag sleeping
bag body suit: Stay warm this Winter
October 14th, 2007; Apparel by Reuben; Looking like a great big over-stuffed
snowmobile suit, the Lippi Selk’bag is a “sleep wear system”
solution to the restrictions of conventional sleeping bags. Named
from the Chilean nomads, the Selk’nam, who had a great resilience
for the cold the Selk’bag has a hood, arms and legs giving you
the ability to move around freely while staying warm inside your bag.
On those cold mornings of camping simply standing up without getting
out of your bag is hard enough not to mention trying to shuffle or
hop around. The Selk’bag is made with a Nylon shell and a Polyester
hollow fiber bonded filling giving it an “extreme temp”
rating of -8.4 degrees celcius. It also appears to have zippers to
close up at the end of the arms and vent your legs and sides if you
get too hot. But, unlike our full-body underwear we’re not seeing
an opening to let us pee without taking it all off, which is the primary
reason we’re usually getting up when it’s still cold outside
in the first place. It comes in four sizes of small, medium, large
and extra large and in colors of yellow and green for about $180.

UFOs
in the Olympic Stadium? - Unbelieveable, but true! Flying Sleds!
Dec 1, 2007: Munich Germany: First Freestyle Snowmobile Contest
in Germany at the Nokia Air & Style 07 in the Olympic Stadium

weighting 200 kg? An answer to that question will be given at the
Nokia Air & Style 07 on December 1st at the Olympic Stadium Munich.
The event is staging a freestyle snowmobile contest (FSX),
for the first time ever in Germany. The Nokia Air & Style is once
again about to make history. The first snowmobiles, propelled
by track at the rear and skis up front for steering, have been
designed more than 90 years ago, but have been used for jumping only
since 10 years. Now the young, fascinating and spectacular sport is
coming to Germany: On December 1st the world’s best FSX riders
are competing for the prize money of 50.000 Euro at the Nokia Air
