Its mint......best its been in many years for early may.How is the kirkup trail holding up and access going into turtle?
Yeah about there. It'll be a week or so until a guy could haul a trailer to the upper lot. Still a couple feet at 9k.Thank you. Parking just past the junction at km 4 now?
awesome ta here that the shoot is sTiLL named after its rightful owner as randy was the first to climb that shoot in front of a cro- wd of big shoot iron way back iNN the daY ... luV iT !! KooL beans respecT and supporT is much appreciaTed in aLL FoRMsFigured it would be worth providing a little update from riding this weekend. Went into turtle Friday up the front, back to the chutes and went to have lunch at the eagles cabin. Access still pretty good on Kirkup but starting to melt good with this weather. Parked at 7kms both days. Rode Boulder yesterday. Still lots of fun riding out there. Our crew climbed swenson street and the turtle chutes

Turtle and Eagle Pass are actually connected. Haven't done that ride but many on here have. Its possible for sure.Dumb question, Eagle Cabin you spoke of is that the one at Eagle Pass Sicamous. I've been there several times but never Turtle. Took my boys to Eagle Pass couple years ago and Stephen said sure he'd been to Eagle Pass cabin before but he had started out in Revelstoke.
They are closer togerther than one would think. But on deep days that’s a long ride from turtle the doghouse chute by Eagle Pass cabin. Done it a few times when the snow is right. Need to make sure you have enough fuel to get all the way back to Boulder parking lotTurtle and Eagle Pass are actually connected. Haven't done that ride but many on here have. Its possible for sure.
Yeah you either need a fuel stash or I've heard of guys getting someone to run their trucks and trailers down to either end. Be a long day going back and forth.They are closer togerther than one would think. But on deep days that’s a long ride from turtle the doghouse chute by Eagle Pass cabin.

I’ve been to Copeland Mine from both Turtle and Eagles, but never one-way’d the journey. I’d sure like to one day though. Need a truck driver…..hmmmmm…..Is the way to Boulder from Eagles around the Copeland mine???

That would be a good trip. Good country back in there.
