avalanche warning

Just returned from St. Paul today in this blizzard and there are some huge drifts in the ditches. Cornices at the top just like in the mountains. Some are breaking off and coming down. 2 years ago similar issue in Quebec with slopes sliding down. I don`t think anything will happen but look for some serious driftbashing when this storm ends. Better wear you long undies gonna be chilly

I have one drift in the yard here that would probably measure close to 5 feet high, this weather is incredible...... sure wish I had a sled!

We got drifts in our yard taller than i am...(5' 10") They have to be over 6 ft....i tried walking on top of one and sunk to my chest...we might need beacons this year

Don't bash those drifts up too much RUCKY, I am sure Trav and I can put some big holes in them for you

Have to head out in the evening out of Strathcona County and do some ditch banging. Otherwise lets see some pics of the large drifts

Slightly warmer by Thursday. Might have to take the day off and beat all you guys out to the ditches and tree lines. LOVE drift busting!!!

Sounds like a plan Ron. if anyone is making plans post em on here. Just have to wait until it warms a bit. -45 today with Windchill. Supposed to go down to -39 tonight (not factoring chill) and -37 on Tuesday. A little cold for riding both for man and machine. S*#t breaks at this temp. Looking forward to putting some XP sized holes in a lot of snow on the weekend

Boys, Boys, Boys... just remember, those nice fluffy drifts you are all getting worked up over are going to be as hard as rock by the time this cold snap is over.. I just shoveled the snow in front of my house and it is already very hard

Fair enough...hopefully it warms up though, -20 seems like t shirt weather after this.
