[winterulez]

Just wondering if anyone has been sledn in Stewart lately ? Anyone going up for May long ? Will be there May 15 for out annual trip.

I have a friend there right now on a 7 day sled trip I will let you know how it is next week.

 

[winterulez]

Right on sounds good, i am sure he is having a blast.

 

[NosRX1]

He better because he is starting to miss lot of work... I better not say to much he's my boss back in Calgary...good thing he never comes on here....lol

It is an amazing place to ride. If you think the Renshaw is big, it is nothing in comparison. It is huge and wide open there. Lots of glacier riding as well. Last year May long, they still had a bunch of snow in Hyder at sea level. If you ever get a chance to go, check it out.

Yes we are going to Stewart May long. We got spoiled at Smithers and heard that Stewart is better so we are off to ride the best Where is a good place to stay. I will bring my fly rod just incase of some down time ( that ticking time bomb XP drive shaft ) Fly fishing is the second best thing you do with your clothes on next to sledding.

We stay on the Hyder side at the Grand View Inn. Or Dave Craig has a good set up on the Stewart side, Stewart Mountain Lodge. We stay on the Hyder side because of the border crossing, but it isn't a big deal but sometimes they can be a pain.

Leaving for Stewart tomorrow afternoon. Staying in P.G. tomorrow nite, then off to Stewart.

when do you guys call it a season?
next few weeks I am guessing, when does the season start up there?
man I wish you were closer.

 

[shreddog]

I've called it a season personally. its bowcandy season no?
But if it happens to snow up at the peaks or there are some friends in town riding I'll go. last season august 18th was the last ride for some guys still tons of snow on the roads right now. very easy access. I like pow, so spring/summer rides dont get me as excited as they used too.

The snow in november looks sweet, rode alot of places but never stewart have always wanted to make the trip. Anyone know how many hours from edmonton?

 

[shreddog]

I'm gonna guess 14 hrs from edmonton.

Quadding is insane here in stewart. Only problem is snow! problem?

last year we were sledding third week in august!
But the quadiing will be sick aswell.
Make sure you get down to long lake. cross the creek and theres tons of quading.
I have dvds yes sir.
shoot me an email b4 ya head into town or just call the lodge when your here

Hey Dave, hows it going???

Sorry I missed the trip with Wes Murray and the boys this past winter. I have started my own welding business a year ago and was super buisy when they went this past spring. Also I was still fighting with problems with my sled. Hope to make it up this winter!

 

[shreddog]

going up for a ride this tuesday. A film crew doing some background footage for the olympics will be in town shooting HD from a heli. Should be a good ride!

 

[winterulez]

Dave,
Let us know how your ride was, and conditions, take some pics for us as well.
That would be cool to see.

Thanks
