Is there any snow up their yet?

i was asking the same question a bunch of my buddies rode there last year and said there was a ton of snow. it is long track country

There was only an inch or so at Judy creek a couple of days ago. Thats only a bit south and east of goose.

Just got back from riding at km 28 on the goose tower rd yesterday november 27. snow is up to your knees in certain areas. good times.

Do you drive in to km 28, then unload? If so, where do you ride from there?

The Goose Tower road is just north of Swan Hills isn't it, then you head west?

 

[Summiteer]

Just pick a cut line

[POWDERCHOWDER]

we rode goose yesterday, f45k3n cold but the snow was epic over the windshield all day there is about 3-4 ft in areas and some nice deep pow to carve up. i will post a pic later as i only got one pic because it was so cold, the sonw made it worth it though.

How was the drive up there and how long of a trip was it from edmonton? thanks.

 

[POWDERCHOWDER]

I would say 3 hours, the drive was good we went through barrhead
it is faster that way. Road was good 120kph the whole way. I would recommend a 4x4 once you turn off on gas plant road north of swan hills, i think we staged at km 25 there is a blue cabin there, we hit an untouched cutline the started heading east there is some big snow in areas.
