yes baseline looked good, and should be lots in the trees. the trail out to oonion lake was ok, but there was no snow in the alpine, gravel and rock everywhere. hummingbird creek was open as well as the other creeks out there. not good at all.

We plowed the Baseline parking lot with Speight's D6 last week. Damn that Nelly is a good skinner!

I'm sure it will help the Caroline club with their poker rally coming up.

just looked at nordegg webcam, looks hazy but not snowing, the usual story out there.

Just came off the trunk road tonight. Not snowing out there like it is here in Rocky. Two buds of mine made into the lake on a side by side last week. I think you'd be crazy to sled in there right now. Baseline, south fork, lick creek have better snow. Meadows and marble are also decent. Trout creek trail into the forks is good. Any further west and your out of the snow. Weather out here has been coming in high over elevation and dumping in the foot hills.

If you wait until march it will be worth it. I have seen February out there that you could dirt bike to the lake and then a whole different ball gone in march. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1391050071.278986.jpg ImageUploadedByTapatalk1391050091.111295.jpg
It's worth waiting.

web cam shows some accumulation, maybe a couple inches, looks like more drifting than anything.
