Coming up to blue tomorrow till Thur. Any advice on places to stay? 4 of us.

Hope you have a furnace in your trailer. Might be pretty tough finding rooms in blue this time of year but you could check the old motel in town, I'm sure Blue jewel, Sandman and glacier would be booked.

I've been to Blue River once about 7 years ago. We stayed in Valemount and drove down for a day. Back then, I don't believe the town was set up for snowmobiling as much as they are now. I was wondering if they have a groomer for their areas, and is there a website similar to VARDA to get info on the sledding areas? Any info would be appreciated! Thanks.
