Seems there was an issue with Snowandmud HQ and we lost the entire seasons thread to date. So Ron asked for a restart. This is not a conspiracy, someone just had fat fingers by the sounds of it.


Ride safe and please keep the updates coming.

Any estimates as to how much snow fell in the alpine on Monday/Tuesday?

Not a lot of new on those days but good conditions are still out there in the alpine considering the base is only just over a meter. Still enough for the polaris to get stuck tho :p

Right now it seems like McBride area has the best snow loads and coverage from what I can tell and have read!

Sounds like conditions are a little iffy and we need a little more snow?

I would have to agree. Has been beautiful and sunny but that is not helping our snow levels at all elevations. It does sounds like renshaw is the place to be! Dress warm! She's nippy!

Allan was awesome today. Lots of snow left to play in.

You guys sure made a mess of that trail though LOL

Seen multiple groups make it up 2-3 hours after me and we left at the same time. Please don’t bring novice riders up this trail at this point in time it requires some skill to
Navigate and they won’t have a good time it is very icy now

We had one guy on an 850 eat it down the icey banked downhill right turn. Sled wound up upside down off the trail in the trees. Couple ski pulls and a creative line through the trees got him out.

Only damage was a bent bar

Only the real warriors will be up Allen Creek on Sunday.... the icy switchbacks are witness to a lot of carnage
