Default blown motor pics (again)

ok, i was riding my snowmobile last week up the cliffs near my house....








amazingly there was little damage to the cylinder walls, the wrist pin bearing is pretty well burned up

im not totally sure, water in the gas most likely. when its real cold the water will freeze in the bottom of the float bowl, when it gets warm it thaws and gets pulled into the motor, this leads to a hotspot (on the edge of the piston) this caused me to lose compression, and run lean. also, my plug was a little too hot.
