i'm here till jan2nd then i head back to fort nelson.

Basically i'm staying on the hill at my parents cabin but i finally brought my sled up and i was hoping someone would take me out for the day to show me the area. Please and thank you.

I'm no pro but i've been to the mountains before, i have my beacon and stuff on me and i can haul one more sled on my deck.

Hope someone can help me out.

Thanks
Sean

Are you guys gonna be goin thru Mcbride. If so you should stop in and check out our new shop on Main st. With all the extra room this year versus last year it is so nice to be able to stock more stuff and display things like turbo'd sleds, big bore cats, and alot of clothing.

We are heading out to a remote cabin for new years, but if the weather is decent on sunday we may be going then. How much experience do you have? Are you really comfortable with side hilling? If the weather is good we may be heading up Sinclair again and it is steep and deep....

I'm not so sure you'll be successful at the Onion parking lot.... there isn't much snow up on the Babine side of the valley yet, I think you would do better at the Mic parking lot. I can't think of anyone going up today.... everyone's working.. :( What you can try is stopping in at Trails North in town and ask Kendra if she knows of anyone going up today.... or at Wayside, they may know.

Wish I could be more help to ya... let us know how it goes.

My cousin is headed up the Mic today- wish I knew earlier and I would have hooked you up with their crew.

Hey... just saw a group heading up towards the mic parking lot, (they have to drive by my place.... handy!! )you can probably hook up with them. If you do go just take a look at their tracks as they can go mic or Sinclair from that parking lot. Also, the groomer will be working on the Sinclair trail this afternoon so keep your eyes open for them. Have a great day!!

i missed this post sorry. when i saw nothing at 9:30 i just strapped my skis on and went skiing instead. but tomorrow i'm hell bent on going. the old guys behind me are telling me to go to mic tower and then sledmamma said she might take me which i'd owe her dearly for if it works out. i hope it works out! i'm way too excited, i need to get out. :d
