My Ski-Doo was at ~50MPH, not 50 HP; don't know what the HP was.

Especially when you consider that in 1975 50HP was a big big machine and 3"
made it a long travel suspension.
My '95 Ski-Doo has 90HP and 15" of rear suspension travel, 8" up front.
Thats "only" a 670cc, they make 1000cc...

In March, '75, friend and I were snowmobiling in woods west of The
Soo, MI, on a Saturday morning. At 50 MPH, I broke out of the woods
onto an expanse of white; noticed that surface under me seemed to be
undulating slightly; suddenly realized that US Coast Guard ice breaker
200 to 300 yards in front of me was cutting a channel in Lake Superior
and that I was on the lake with 'em and the undulation I was feeling
was likely wave action. I maintained full throttle and did a skidding
180 to get back on solid ground.

Sounds like darned fine piloting there Wilton.
