Snow donuts are part of the reason I live in NH! The AWD Yukon Denali XL is amazing with all the nannies turned off.

Wait a minute, let me understand this correctly Matt.

You moved to New Hampshire for the donuts ?

You make it sound like that is not a 100% valid reason for a move.

I used the ATV to "groom" the slope in the back yard then used a lid from a plastic container as a "sled". Good times!!!

Of course having to break up the ice in the pool this morning at 7 degrees made this old real fast.

I took my Texas Wife to visit family at Christmas one year -- had a rental car and pulled into a grocery shopping center to show her snow donuts ... realized it was FWD and had to do it in reverse -- it was epic!

Next day we drove by after the snow melted and realized somehow we missed all the parking curbs -- how did that happen :-)

Hard to tell if he's in the fall line downslope or if he's skinning up.

Very easily could be either. My first thought was uphill skinning, but the spray around his boots is deceiving.

I think he's skinning up.

VR, can you ask him please...lol.
