Hey everyone,
My friends and I are coming up to McBride this weekend - they're all season veterans when it comes to sledding...me? Not so much. This will be my first ride on my first sled LOL So it'll be fun, and a big learning experience.
I'm wondering what the avalanche conditions are. I see 'high' rated on the avalanche.ca website but see that everyone still seems to be going out riding...any advice from the locals on where to go and maybe more importantly, where NOT to go? We were planning on going to Lucille for our first day and Renshaw our second...(or maybe I have that backwards..the guys keep changing their minds). I'll be looking for a relatively flatish area that I can practice carving, turning and just staying afloat...and the guys will jet off to do some highmarking or boondocking nearby.
Thanks! Maybe I'll see some of you out there...!
