It isn't snowmobiling. Mother Nature seems to want to put us in our place every once in awhile. All the sill going down with this event throughout the whole drainage of the Elk Valley and the greenies think a quad across a creek is worth making rules about. Go figure..........

Both the east side and the Main Elk are all repaired. The "floor" didn't doo that much damage. The trail is rough for quads but lots have gone "over". The Bull River road has been hit hard but both will be fine with the snow we get. There will be lots of surprises throughout the area as a lot of roads were washed out and they will not be repaired before winter. Bridge is also missing to WhiteSwan and problems up into Myauke (sp) but the snow will help the crossing.

Wasn't bad at all, the entrance into the canyon was the worst part, made for a nice technical ride but still easy.
