January Conditions

[Caper11]

Went for a Day ride yesterday the snow conditions were almost the same as at x-mas maybe a little worse, wind blown areas and such, put alot of miles on over 80, played in wineburgers bowl, went to the alberta side, Had alot of fun! Blue bird sky's. I forgot my camera, But higgins pics of yesterday tell the tale.

Rode Renshaw today, blue skies, not much powder to be found, lots of tracks, but still found some powder in the trees. Strong winds today. Put on 80 miles!!! Started in the Anthills and worked our way back.

Can't load pics on my laptop, I'll try to download tomorrow when we get home.

was up bell to do some work on the cabin and outhouse. was the only one up there, trail up was like a tabletop and found some good snow but had to move away from the cabin. very few tracks in alot of places. 10 inches in many spots, by myself so didn't get into anything really good.
will try and get up the renshaw tomorrow and go back to spirt to see for myself what the conditions are.

Here's some pics from our ride this weekend. All I can say is we need snow bad!!! At best there has been maybe 10" of new snow since New Years, we could still see our tracks in places that were wind blown and in the spots that were in the trees still visible with about 8-10'' in them, and still hitting rocks. Don't get me wrong, we rode untracked snow every day but none of it was fresh all windblown, but the sunny skies definitely made up for the lack of snow. Let it snow!!! Here's a link to some vids

And the pics,

was up belle and lucille yesterday, not much new snow 3-4 inches only. found some untouched and was good riding but you have to go back.
8 inches at renshaw cabin and didn't go back any further as there was alot of work to do at the cabin. hotrod and one of our collectors were the ones up there doing the work, see my new post--MESS---not for the faint of heart.

I know everyone is waiting for a report on the weather and conditions, but really there has not been much change since last weekend.

Roads are currently clear and weather has been just under zero degrees and sunny all week. Snow clouds are supposed to start moving in about Friday, but I will wait until I actually see it. Will update if anything changes, i.e. snow. Keep dancing !!!

 

[shellnekov]

IS it snowing??? How much, leaving Sunday, Mcbride or Blue??

 

[heyjude]

Starting snowing finally on Saturday afternoon and is still snowing. Currently about three-four inches in town and looks like quite a bit up top so far. Will post as soon as I know for a fact how much has fallen up there. No wind, temp is hovering around zero.

the next 10 days doesnt look like much snowing hope that changes for the long weekend

Renshaw Saturday, first ride into the back country since my wreck. We needed the snow that came yesterday and last nite and most of today. Could use another couple of days.
Found untracked snow all day but was like spring riding. Creek riding was the best with 2 feet in the bottoms.
