Talking Sledding Season is here - Allen Crk

Valemount - Allen creek.

Went sledding on nov 3rd to allen creek, AWSOME. Trail up has snow from parking lot, about 5 - 10 inches up till km 5 then couple feet. Was warm out so it is melting fast. Wont take long for trail to get to the rocks once more people start showing up.

Up at the cabin, there was about 2.5 - 3 feet of snow, once we got farther back into the bowls we got into a solid 3 feet or more of good base with some awsome powder riding in the treed areas. Was snowing and drifting fast and hard when we were up there.

Re: Sledding Season is here

Conditions up high are looking good, but we really need a shot of lower valley snow before that weekend.

The weather man is showing some colder temps and snow in the next few days, so Ive got my fingers crossed.
