Stay along the hwy 1 corridor and it won't matter much.
SAR member was in the group so immediately recommended heli evac which was good as the SAR team was already tasked out west of SA.

Went for a ride around Owlhead today. Need snow. Lack of grooming made for a rough trail in and out.

Ouch! Been there, done that. Hope for a speedy recovery. They need more clearance in the foot wells on some brands.

Staged from owlhead yesterday. Not much fresh close to the cabin. Although, there was more in the trees. Went over skinny ridge and dropped into the bowl by mara mtn lookout. Definitely more fresh snow there. Blue skies until 2pm made for a really nice day.
Which brings me to my question: what's the best route to ride up to the lookout? I know it's possible. Seen old vids on ytube of guys do just that.

If you climb up Avalanche alley from Morton lake and go through the little draw area when it opens up a bit turn left and work your way up by a route of your choosing.

Or go past Morton about a km and its a easy climb up the south side with sometimes decent sledding on the way up! This is the old guys route!����

The one Bnorth mentioned is allot funner, but not something you'd do at the end of the day!����

Can you point out avy alley on google earth? I don't know the area well enough to establish the route based on your description.
