Re: SNOOOOOOOOOOW deep or sheep

Went sledding yesterday to Boulder and there was about 2 foot of fresh and you could find stashes of 3 foot or more in other areas. It was fairly socked in but had some breaks in the cloud and was getting face shots (the good kind) all day long. Ripping powder turns, down turns, drops and a damn sore body today. My buddy dropped his sled into a steep creek and we had to dig it out and there was about 7-8 feet of snow in the creek. So friday and saturday did the place wonders. Whoops are terrible on the trail though...

Re: SNOOOOOOOOOOW deep or sheep

Hey Dobir Went to Revy this weekend. It was green grass going in on thurs, but woke up fri morning to snow. It hasn't stop snowing since, it was socked in all weekend so didn't get very far. The groomer is at the bottom now at frisby, didn't ride sunday so don't know if they were grooming the bottom or not. So good news is that it snowed really hard all weekend but you couldn't see anything so did get a whole lot of ridin in, but still beat a good day a work

Re: SNOOOOOOOOOOW deep or sheep

Arrived Thursday in Revy to brown grass at Glacier House, only to wake to about 6" of fresh snow Friday morning and it continued to snow all weekend untill about Sunday noon when we had to head home.

On Friday made it back to penis point (green forestry tower), snow was not bad approx. 6-8" of fresh, which was disappointing as that is what was at the bottom, usually if 6" down low, would be a lot more up top, but not so.

There are still plenty of landmines to watch out for as my nephew found out the hard way and messed his front end up pretty good, also a couple of other sleds missing skis, trailing arms etc, Bottom line is there is just enough to cover up the landmines at Frisby, heard it was same at Boulder.

Parking at Frisby is now from the main parking lot and trail passes are $15.00. Trail on Sunday was groomed from the bottom, but after 30 sleds or so, it was getting pretty rough, especially coming down, just not a good base yet.

No pics as it was just to foggy etc.

Re: SNOOOOOOOOOOW deep or sheep

Guys with the amount of traffic, just getting snow down low and the warm temps. it`s tough to get the trails to set up. Both mtns. were groomed Fri. Sat. and Sun. night. It will get better just need more snow and cooler temps.
