I think a ‘Jerry’ is the guy that rides with the crew but only puts on half the miles as everyone else. Sits back and enjoy watching. Their ‘Jerry’ can of gas is yours when you run out ‘cause their not going to use it.
If I’m right, I’m a bit of a Jerry most days.

It’s nice to recognize areas that we’ve rode for so many years that are still open but yet still not talked about much. This is one of those areas that we ride well into June. I flew a good friends ashes off the backside of this zone some years ago. A friend known as Jim K.

Don’t think it’s actually Boulder.

He always says it’s Boulder! Jaden slips up and spills the beans while building the first (chute or gap) jump. Not sure they showed any footage of the gap. He edited the real location.

Where you ride yesterday FredW?

Cool channel, I watched a bunch of his vids today. Definitely makes a guy want to go ride. It’s also a breath of fresh air from some YouTube channels. Not an overly in your face guy that’s begging you to like his videos every 5 seconds with click bait titles and plugging some sh!tty pair of sunglasses no one wants. I’ll be subscribing and following this dude. I do have one question, being from Ontario, I’m guessing his job is seasonal and he can take the winters off to head to Revy?

Would you have a GPS track you could send me? I’m tired of riding Boulder whenever I’m in Revy.

Turn right at km 9 on the Kirkcup for the front trail in. Km 11 for the back trail in. https://sledrevelstoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/rev-snowmobile-map13-frisby-web-file1.pdf / https://sledrevelstoke.com/ridingareas/turtle/
Its a single trail in. If you've never been in, I would ask someone to take you incase it gets socked in, and track you route with a GPS. We were in a week ago and had to GPS out as the wind blew the tracks in the Alpine away and you couldn't see 15 feet in front of you.

Had that happen to us on eagles one time. The snow was **** so we just kept going further and further and then a storm blew in and covered everything with next to no visibility. Was not a good time

A friend got socked in on Turtle a few years ago. His first time in. Couldn't see a thing and no GPS tracking. I think he said there was 2 in his group and 4 in another group. It was well past dark before they found their way out. He bought a Garmin RINO as soon as that trip was over.

I was just joking...but thanks. I’ve only been on Boulder once in about 30 times to Revy.

Just go into Boulder on the groomed trail, then cut across to turtle, then to eagles and back to turtle and come out the kirkup way. Less truck driving, less trail miles and more time in the alpine.
