Kent,
Glad you have a machine, seems the older we get, the more need we have of them. I and my wife generally go alone because of the same reason you stated. Fortunately we have never been stranded, but the fear of going very far and getting stuck or a breakdown haunts me. I have not gotten out much this year due to my wife's knee injury and she doesn't want me going alone, so I have done very little fishing this winter. Would enjoy hooking up with you and going to Strawberry or where ever. I am still among the working class for a couple of more years, so I am on the Saturday fishing schedule only (even though I am past the retirement age). Seems there is always something going on each weekend which limits my availability even more. Saturdays are always the most crowded day to go, but, with the aid of a snowmobile, getting away from the crowds is very easy to do. Aside from all that, let's get together and go, it has been several years since the last time we fished together. I am in Rose Park, which is just a hop skip and a jump from you. Unfortunately, my trailer only hauls one snowmobile, but my pickup would easily pull a double trailer if you have access to one. I drive a 2016 Ford F150 4x4 with the V6 Eco-Boost engine, which gets great gas milage. I have been considering going somewhere tomorrow and could have my arm twisted to convince me if the weather is good. Haven't been to Renegade this year and have been itching to go. It is about a three mile snowmobile ride across the lake from the Marina, or 10 miles by road and always empty of other fishermen.
