family looking for people to go with and advise on trails/areas

Hi, we are from Calgary and are just getting into snowmobiling this year. We are a family of 4 (the kids are 12 & 13) and have 3 sleds (2 of the sleds are doubles)
We are all taking the avalanche course in Eckville this coming weekend and we will buy all the proper avy equipment. That being said, I am very nervous and would prefer to avoid areas/trails with avalanche danger. I do realize that being in the backcountry there is always a risk.
I would love to meet other people/families that would like to go out together. We are definitely considered beginner/novice ridders so any advise on what area or trails to venture on would be appreciated. My husband grew up with riding sleds so he would love an area where he can venture into powder but me and the kids are looking at staying on the trails.

The Crowsnest Pass is the best place for Family riding. If there is snow.
Atlas is good for what your looking for. Going to be taking my wife and kids
Riding there this winter, can show you around.
Still waiting on a little more snow.

May I invite you to check out the Calgary Snowmobile Club? We have organized rides at various mountain riding areas, and groom the snowmobile trails at Cataract Creek Snow Vehicle Public Land Use Zone, 1 hour southwest of Calgary - zero avalanche risk with access to powder for those that want it.

Welcome to snow and mud

Thanks Crude, appreciate your reply and invite to show us around. We are away for the holidays but keep in touch and maybe after the new year we can meet up in crowsnest.

Kaz Dog, we are going to join the Calgary snowmobile club, I noticed you have a poker derby in January. Since there is 4 of us do we join individually?
