Ugh, folks.
Talk to me about sledding based out of Kelowna.
What’s the terrain like? Where are some fun tree riding areas?
How’s the snow usually?
What’s it like to find some riding buddies?

The club seems to be strong and well organized but the terrain is quite mellow. Primary area is in the Greystokes near Big White with a well groomed trail network and multiple cabins. Drive up to Hunters Range for more mountain riding.

Just thinking out loud.
I know Salmon Arm is not too far.
Crowfoot can’t be that far.
What about stuff closer?
I can’t imagine it’s that good?

Nothing much going south, could take the connector to the Coquihalla. Crowfoot is a long drive by the time you get around the lake. There's lots of tame stuff around like some higher elevation cutblocks and roads to lakes but for actual mountain riding you need to go north to Hunters or out hwy 6 if you can find someone to share their secrets.

Sicamous and Salmon Arm (just rated top place to live in BC and #6 in Canada) are pretty much as nice in the summer and a lot less busy but also better in the winter. Just don't tell anyone, it's a secret.
Ya ****, you guys followed me, bastages

Check the merritt club they have styoma and honeymoon. The club used to throw a spring fling ride at honeymoon not sure if they still do. It had a ****ty sidehill trail in which discouraged to many from going in but could have changed since I have been out of sledding for a few years now.

Kelowna Club has some pretty cool stuff, It more than just trails. Its some of the best powder and expanding boondock area.
Maybe not the biggest hills by any stretch but its sure to be fun and you will leave the plateau exhausted.
An exhausted body for a seasoned rider is a sure sign of Fun in sledding today.
