Rode the trails today. Good day. Plenty of fresh powder down past the end of skyline. Easily 3ft in the non-tracked areas.

We're heading that way on New Year's day.

Heading out there now. Will update conditions tonight!

yes. We got the sleds out on Friday and they are both fine...started first pull and managed to play with them for the rest of the day. Unfortunately, allthough we do have the chopper sled recovery on multiple gopro's; we were told directly by the pilot that we are not allowed to show the footage...

Wohoo...my insurance is covering the chopper lift to get them out! They consider it a tow and there is no deductable. Going to get them back this week.

Well here is the update as promised.....Our sleds can be airlifted out and yes it is considerably cheaper than replacing them! We have begun to coordinate a "sled rescue" for sometime this week, (want to get them out before the snow makes it impossible). Currently waiting to hear from the...

Saw a slide in the same spot on Thursday.

ya the're rideable but not reachable! Thats why the rescue crew couldn't sled the guys out and they had to be air lifted.

Will be making calls Monday to see what we can do and will keep you all posted. Definately un-retrievable any other way as they are at the bottom of a gorge with 60ft. rock walls up either side. Can't go back up the way they got in, (up river and over small waterfalls) and the gorge runs nw...

I'll ask the hubby when he wakes up, (he's still kinda recovering from lack of sleep) and see what he thinks. I know he'd love, love, his sled back but pretty sure it's stuck there. He does have the cordinates as to where it is and we are able to see on the delorme exactly where it is sitting.

They are still out there and they are rideable, (after much digging out) but not reachable. If anyone knows of a helicopter company that does sled recovery that's the only way they're getting out of there. Let me know if you've heard of a company. The RCMP mentioned that there was one based out...

They are fine. They were equiped to spend several nights out there but were unable to recover their sleds after being diverted from their original course due to avalanches in the area. Alpine air lifted them out of a 60ft. ravine after they set of flares to notify of their position. A Delorme...
