Getting ready for goose tower. This Fall I was checking my GPS records. Goose is 1300m elevation compared to750- 900m @ whitecourt or fox. this elevation compares to 2/3 the way up the mountain @ marmott basin. Therefor the snow factor is just stupid.:d:d

My brother-in-law lives in Swan Hills, he will be giving me status updates once the snow stays on the ground. The only worry would be hidden stumps! The first couple of rides might be sticking to the trails (roads).

You guys have to PM me when ever you are heading up there. I have riddin with Zrrr before and would love to hook up again. Goose Tower sounds like a blast. 1300 meters? Never would of thought its was that high! No wonder there's so much snow UP there :)

Ryser all that food isn't going to work for your 40lbs 40 horse deit. You'll need to cut back if you want to stay on your sled in the goose. Otherwise i don't even think that new long track will keep your pumkin afloat. Maybe we better gear you down 2 more befor you fix that bolt.
