Just talked to a customer that rode it day before yesterday. He said he won't be going back anytime soon. Said it is as rough as he has ever seen it and unless you know some honey holes its used up pretty good all the way to the notch.

I don't mind the pipeline early season when there isn't enough snow to make deep woops. Once the snow starts to stack up better off going to Fernie.

Brings up the age old complaint from groomer operators and snowmobile clubs. If everyone just rode at a steady speed instead of brapping on groomed trails they would last 25 times longer than they do. I've road with guys who are on and off the throttle up the trail then when they get to the alpine they sit at the bottom of the hill and watch everyone hot rod around?

Hows the trail out of Morrisey? Icy at all down low?
Ice is not my friend on the bike! Haha.

Another thing most don't realize is just how difficult it is to groom in this warm weather. Sometimes it even becomes pointless, to the point of creating a mess rather improving the trail.

No, people have been really good with paying the attendant just not alot of traffic coming out.

What's the temp like up top? Do they give temps on the FAR snow report?

Morrisey snow pillow station should have it if you can find it on the River Forecast Center website.
Edit: Found it.....sort of. US site. Gotta convert from Fahrenheit. I can't find chit on the crappy new River Forecast center page. Me thinks it was probably raining up there.

It was rain until 5300 ft, snow up top but it's sure changed from the fresh champagne we had. It's definitely getting heavier
