Headed up Blue today to breath a little mountain air ! Parked at 10k bridge - there was about 10 inches of fresh snow on trail ! Probably coulda headed up farther but was pulling a 2place trailer so decided not to ! Guys with decks could probably go 15 or maybe even to 17 corner but theres some ice underneath the snow ! Chains would be highly recommended ! May may way towards the cabin - just after the first cut block there are some large trees blocking the trail - thanks to whoever made path with chainsaws - its a narrow path but made it through !
Proceeded towards to find powder getting deeper , with no creeks visible - could see some open water at larger creek just before cabin on left side ! Lakes froze at cabin - temp was around -8 . Headed up bunny hill and ventured over to meadows - found knee deep dry fluffy powder with 2 1/2 to 3ft base - played in meadows for a bit and headed back down ! Thanks Mother Nature ! Its a very good start to the season !

Was a great day, 100 cm probed with great base, Wes gano dug a pit and found no issues at all, with no sugar snow at ground level

We only had one tank of gas for the saw so couldn't open the trail as wide as we wanted. Took a full tank just to cut what was there.Headed up Blue today to breath a little mountain air !

Picked up some stuff at xtreme in Salmon Arm. Dustin mentioned two guys came in today looking for a-arms. One was at Queest, other at Blue Lake. Apparently they couldn't resist some early pow carving...

From my house I could hear sleds going up from bottom at Owlhead this morning. Crazy.

Didn't it snow right in town last night? I wouldn't be surprised if guys poked up - just gotta be ready to pay if you tag a landmine
