Pemberton and where to stay?

Shankster · 02-04-2009, 10:54 PM

Hi there is a group of like 15 of us coming from everywhere on Mar 5. So where are the hotspots to stay? Eat? Also is there any maps to the local riding areas? Just looking for some info on the area as this will be my first time there! Thanks in advance ! JJ

Stay at the Pemberton Valley Lodge. Only hotel out there....As to eat..not much in Pemberton.

Better bet is Whistler. More lodging and food options.

Try Brandywine or Rutherford, those are the two snowmobile club maintained areas. Once you hit the alpine at both of these places the riding is unlimited. 100's of KM of ice cap exploring, you never have enough fuel....

Stayed at Pemberton Valley Lodge last year. Nice hotel with pool and hot tub. We ate at Wild Wood Bistro & Bar for every meal. Great food and the waitresses are smokin' hot. Make sure you have steak or prime rib, it's perfect. We rode Rutherford and had a blast. Pack a ton of fuel cause you can go n go n go forever up on the ice cap. Excellent trip. Would go back in a heartbeat.

this last week the coast mtn's have been epic. Blue bird the last 7 days, 2 feet of fresh, valley bottom freezing levels and no wind. Yesterday did over 120km up on the ice-cap linking Rutherford and Brandywine together

conditions are excellent up on the ice!

Ahhhh man that looks wicked! I hear there is supposed to be a storm rollin through there next week to so should be excellent conditions! That's a great pic, do you have any more....

I wish i was coming out right now instead of on the 5th of mar!

teamdirt · 02-18-2009, 02:21 PM

Here's one more to give an idea of the vastness...

On this given day there were probably over 100 sleds up on the glacier and this is about a week after the last storm...

...our tracks were the only ones out there....

elephant rider · 02-20-2009, 09:48 PM

Grizzly Adams · 02-21-2009, 09:23 AM

Starts tomorrow, weather calls for 2 feet plus of fresh pow pow next week should be great first week of march. May see some of you up there in march. Remember the battle cry of the cap "Got Gas???"
