Here is a link with a bit of info

Here is a link to photos from our ride last year

Not to hard to find, sledding is awesome and is for the experienced rider only.
The trails up are not groomed (EVER) so be prepared for a long rough ride. Once in the alpine there are miles of riding spots. You won't see a lot of other riders during the day and there is lots of powder.

Oh, and check out the gas pump on page two of the photos...yep, that's for real. It's the only place to get fuel in Trout lake.

So what did it cost you for the hotel and how much was fuel. Also how much was the ferry. It looks like a good trip and im thinkin that it could be a fun weekend.

Catmando, you turn south just as you leave Revy and head to the ferrie. It's about an hour and a half from Revy.
catzuki, ferrie is free, hotel was quite inexpensive and is really old. If your used to luxury, this is not for you and bring your earplugs for the squeeky everything. Fuel was about 10 cents higher than Revy.
Don't ride this area without someone who is familiar with it. Really easy to end up where you don't want to be.

P.M. the Krazy Kanadian that whole area Castlegar ,Slocan , New Denver, Kaslo, Trout Lake/Duncan is his domain. If you guys like better food and shelter we always centralize our rides from the Ainsworth Hot Springs.If you like hot tubs you will enjoy the pool an d caves. Many of the resorts on Kootenay Lake offer great winter rates. Without a doubt a sledders dream area, just be carefull you may not see another sledder for days. Truly steep and deep. I lived there for 6 years it can be snowing and cloudy in the Castlegar area and sunny in Trout and there is a high chance Trout got a big dump over night and visa versa. Thats the reason we stay in the middle, almost always find new snow and sunshine. Give Dan a call he can guide you.

Sledbunny nice pics. Is any time a good time to go in there or is there a certain window to get in. Is later better. Do many riders know the area well or is a guide recomended for the first time. Looks great.

 

[SLEDBUNNYRACING]

You know, I don't really have an answer to the "when" questions, I've only been there once.
I would suggest a local or a person who know the area. There are lots of spots to ride, but to find the good ones you need directions.
