On Saturday, September 23rd VARDA will be hosting an alpine cleanup day in each of our three main riding areas (participation dependant) Three groups will head head out into the areas lead by VARDA representatives for a day of hiking around the accessible areas cleaning up anything we find.


The areas will be initially accessed by ATVs although the ATV use will be extremely limited and the majority of the day will be spent hiking around on foot to protect our fragile alpine environments. Don't worry, if you are not a hiker, we still need you as there are areas that are very easily accessible with little effort!


It is ambitious and we need help from our friends! Participants would need an ATV or side by side, if you have a small atv trailer, that is a big asset as well.


Friday the 22nd we plan to meet at the Best Western Plus Valemount Inn & Suites for a pre-cleanup meeting at 8pm. We will organize into groups and plan for the following day.


Saturday will be spent in the field and during the evening we will return to Valemount where VARDA would like to host everyone for an evening of BBQ and Three Ranges Brewing Company refreshments !


Please let us know if you are able to make it via an email to the VARDA office at info@ridevalemount.com.


Thank you for the consideration.

Sorry all, we will have to cancel our cleanup that was scheduled for this weekend.


Old man winter has dropped significant snow in the alpine and more looks to be on the way. Besides the snow, we do not want to affect our alpine areas in the very wet weather that is forecasted.


Sorry for the inconvenience. The battle between the dry/bugs and snow/rain won this time and we will try to schedule earlier in the season next year.


GOOD NEWS IS THERE IS SNOW UP THERE!

Now the trails in Valemount will be bushy........just like the ladies up there! Ahahahahahaha


LOL but in all seriousness, this has nothing to do with the trails, it was about cleaning up after people who cant seem to do it themselves. On a good note, we had sent the brushers up all of our main access trails this summer for what amounted to be a very major job. Sorry cant say we did any help for the bushy ladies....
