We went in to Allen Creek on the 10th. Pretty much hardpack everywhere. Trail up was in awesome shape.

You guys have any pics that you can put up for us folks that are working and can't make it to the hills yet?

that's it?...how did the sled run?

Sled ran great. I think my arms about 3" longer now. Had one little ooops....on a climb. The top of the hill went almost vertical and I slid back on the boards......then the sled flipped right over backwards and we met back up at the bottom of the hill. No damage was done; but I guess it was funny from the bottom of the hill; watching me trying to swim out of the way of my sled chasing me, as I was cartwheeling down the hill.
