I live in Crowsnest and am also looking for others to go backcountry skiing/boarding using sled access. We need more snow in Crowsnest before it's worth heading out.

He was in the field about 2 km north of the highway. Getting lost is just part of being part husky. They need to run and you can't always keep them on a leash. photo of Oakley flaked out after the adventure

We found Oakley this morning in the fields beside Atlas Rd. near the highway. Thanks for offering to look.

He didn't ride on the sled. He ran the whole way in at 30+ km/h.

Thanks,. Our phone number is 403 562 8224. I will check on this post too.

The snow was great there today March 25 - we were skiing using sleds for access. But we lost a dog. He is a husky cross, named Oakley, friendly but hard to catch. Our phone number in Coleman is on his collar. Please call if you see him.

We park the sleds at the bottom of a good hill and walk up, using "climbing skins". They stick to the bottom of the skis or splitboard, slide forward well but grip well when pushing back. I know a couple of fit guys that can regularly get over 10,000 vertical feet in a day that way.

Yeah, there's two feet of fresh snow 30 to 50 km south of Corbin on the Flathead Road
