How was the trail, where you make it too?

SaskSummit · 11-28-2009, 06:48 PM

Any landmines in there?

Carrots · 11-28-2009, 08:19 PM

Not too many rocks, just in areas that get lots of wind you got to be careful.

Made a last minut trip and went into Climina and it was actually really good minus being socked it.. there is still that creek about .5km down the trail but the trail was made around it when i got up the hill.. seen a few slides (none triggered by sledders) down avlanche valley but the snow was really good down at the bottom, then went into morning glory and played to the left in the trees and that was untouched the further to the left you went. so all in all was an awesome day. get out and ride!!

Rode allan on thursday and conditions were so good we rode friday again. Dont want to preach, but some guys were up there drinking and leaving their garbage behind. Please dont be afraid to tell other guys to keep their junk too themselves. Their moms probably dont ride so someone has got to clean up their mess. Anyways, by the time we left on friday she was pretty tracked up. Alot of guys going out on friday night on the way home so it is probably really bad now.

Depsnolvr · 11-29-2009, 09:39 PM

The riding was aswesome this weekend and grooming is off to a great start. Please help out and keep the cabin tidy and smoke outside, makes for a happy place.

Still around the 170-200cm mark but snowing on off slowly the last 48hrs. The snow seems to be setting up well and conditions are great.

As far as being tracked up, theres lots of snow left, but a little storm is coming through right now that is gonna make things ALL BETTER

It looked like a rainy summer day around here at 4pm and now its on !

Beautiful forcast for mid week riders. Drive safe

Snowing like crazy from Mt Robson to Valemount, and still snowing in town. Should be a great day tomorrow if there is any visibility.

Depsnolvr · 11-30-2009, 09:21 AM

WOW, over a foot of snow fell on the town last night ! Havent seen this in valemount for a long time. Not a snowflake in sight yesterday and now you cant get your car out of the driveway. The wind is blowing so hard that the snow is drifted over 1.5' in places.

I would really not recomend alpine travel today due to zero vis and extreme winds. Clemina, Lower Westridge or the North Thompson Road should have some decent low elevation riding today.

My three legged dog needed to lock the hubs and run 3x3 just to take care of her morning business

What about Chappel, when is the groom slated for. Would like to ride there on the 7th. Any chance of a groom by then?
