Was a good weekend in mcbride, May have too go again this weekend!

Was good chatting with you.
All the side bowls were well loaded as well as some of the really far south bowls.
Great snow for sure in all locations.
Next outing is March 12-15.
Gone fishing next two weekends wit da missus and another training coarse in Toronto.
Be in Dawizman's neighborhood for the fishing - due for another BP Lunch.

Those were the only two pics I had time to take.
Was busy burning fuel, I had a great time riding with you and your crew. It was great to meet snowseeker and his crew, I had a great time!

There are not many places at Renshaw or the other place we went that will challenge that sled.
Harder on fuel oil and natural length of your arms.
It pulls like an elevation kit should but there is a lot more to the sled than the turbo.
They doo need to be under some load to really shine.

Any condition updates. We are doing a family trip this weekend taking the wives and kids up. Riding Lucile tomorrow and wondering how the trails are holding up with the warmer temps.
Thanks

Unreal conditions all weekend on the renshaw, tons of pow sun poked out a few times, surprisingly enough with warm weather and rain yesterday the trail is holding up real good.... dropped over the notch both days lots of fun to be had over there tons of untouched snow everywhere !

We just got home from 6 great days of riding. Originally we were going to head to revy, but the snow has been so good further north, that instead we rode a day in Blue river, a day in Valemount, and 4 days in McBride. All were great, but McBride was whatever better than great is!
We rode Lucille, Renshaw and Bell, really could have used a 174 track and a turbo, snow so deep the 163 seemed short.
My old body is so tired I want to rest for a week now, but OMG what a fun trip. If you can't handle getting stuck stay the hell away from McBride. Thankfully my daughter has seemingly endless energy and is quick with a shovel.

Another family trip done. 5 family’s and some vintage iron made it up to the Renshaw cabin and back No rope required. Lol

We rode Renshaw Friday and Lucille Saturday. Rough Vis but great snow around the trees. Fog rolled in late Saturday made getting back interesting
