This is the most snow I have seen in the west country since living here for 4 years........ Trail was good,,,,,,, the sled area is confusing without a map and got a little lost????? Now I know where we went wrong..... we started going into Onion Lake but it was getting late and too cold!!!!!! But looked like no one else had been in there.

[Safari Guy]

Did you look at these ones???


Will see what happens at work once we get machines running,,,,,,, might go out this weekend,,, if not next????

Ya don't look like alot of snow but if you can get up behind onion lake into the Alpine, another 1000 feet, I bet we would find a little more snow. Do you know the trail into the alpine there safari-guy? I might be able to call on a heli-buddy to do a fly-over there next week and get some pic's for us.

There where 0 tracks on the trail up to Hummingbird trail where we turned around when our yamy tank driver rolled on flat ground,,,,,,, hehehe!!! So not sure if the slopes are wind blown or not??? Last year I found 1 valley with snow with all others bare,,,,,,, But if he can make things easier with a fly by,, you bet!!!! I think its the southern side of Onion creek headwaters I plan on hitting????
