Just returned from Revy ourselves, riding is from close to the bottom but we went thru the week and they were not grooming Mon thru Thurs. Started out at Frisbey where conditions were 4-6" of new spring snow on a hard base. Ran into Powderchowder, Slamnek and Captainkip and Xtremegriz. Nice to meet you people!! Then went north to Caribou Basin which had 3-4" of new snow on a hard base. Then went south to Trout Lake which again wasn't the best but snowfall prevented us from doing much. Then went to Hall mountain on Sat. and finally hit a decent 1-1.5ft of fresh. Was snowing very hard but hit the trees and had a good final day. Keith.

Your welcome, nice to meet you guys.
Sounds like this wknd. will be the last for grooming.
Went up Turtle yesterday, about 8" of fresh snow and snowing in the aft. Went up the new way, the way you guys did. Sheets of ice in the open areas on the way up in the morning
Saw Ron, Rick and the boys on their way home today.
Nice to see you and your crew too mountainbigbull.

Nobody passed us on the way down. We actually didn't go on the night ride we were just late coming back to the cabin. Had to tow my 02 summit out from the burnt out area, broken piston skirt which also broke the crank case. Hence me being done for the season. O well, gluten for punishment I have snow check an 09 XP!!

It was good to meet you J.C higgins, we had a great trip. No break downs and no one got hurt (except a few self induced head aches). I will post some pics tomorrow, i'm sittin in the vegas airport waitin to come home. 3 days of riding and 4 days of vegas is enough for me.

Rode Boulder on Sunday. Road is in good shape. 11ft of snow at the cabin still.

Watch out for slides in the warmth of the late day. We saw the debris from a couple huge ones at Turbo hill. Some guys were climbing with in feet of it. Not the smartest thing I've seen in a while.
