Going to be going out to revvy in a few days, and im taking a fairly new mountain rider with me. Iv'e done keystone and was thinking about going there for a day or maybe turtle but I've never been up turtle and not sure how hard it would be. How does it compare to Keystone and any advice?

That's the thing, I don't wanna camp lol. I got a GPS but still haven't been there so its not worth much. How much harder is it than keystone?

You have never been to Turtle, plus your taking a new mountain rider with you...my advise, go to Boulder.
OR
I might be paying you a visit this week with my red coats LOL....SARS member.

First time I went there. We got completely lost till around midnight in a blizzard. I wouldn’t go back unless it was reasonably clear.

We will defiantly be going to boulder for the first 2 or 3 days, and I was debating between Turtle or Keystone for the last day. Leaning towards keystone because of the new rider and not being familiar with Turtle. Hope I dont need to call you haha.

It’s a lotta fun in there. But best if u go in a bigger group or on a clear day at least. Pretty cool to cross over from boulder and then get into turtle, you can even cross into eagles pass out by Sicamous. Lots of terrain to play in.

Only take a new mountain rider into Turtle if you truly hate them and want to scare the hell out of them including having them wreck their sled. Highly suggest Keystone as an alternative and keep the ride to their ability so they stay safe, have a good time and want to come out again.
