I heard the trail was wooped up, that was a few weeks ago.

Anyone know how bad the road in is ? Is it bad yet?

I think we passed you. We did about 50km/hr but not everyone is comfortable driving their truck like in a commercial.

Was up that way last weekend. Road was brutal!!!!!! Not recommended.

The weekend of the 5th? How come you didn't warn us? :d

Anyone on that road anytime soon keep an eye out for a "like new" superclamp rear that had enough of the bumps and ejected itself somewhere along that mess of a road.

Thinking of riding here this coming weekend. Any recent info on the logging road condition? Plowed and smooth or ruts and washboard? Any updates on riding conditions in Hope Creek as well would be greatly appreciated. Thx

heard it was concrete last week, this week might be different.

**BE aware it did rain in g-town at low elevations, ALL back roads are going to be slippery than ****. DONT BE THAT GUY spun out on bald tires, no chains, with a line up of sledders behind you now

i usually check the chatter creek for temp and snow conditions

https://chattercreek.ca/conditions/

i was also hoping someone would chip in and pony up some trail info...
Chatter Creek guys plow the road...so i know that part is ok
OR...maybe no one has been in there and everything is untouched;)
