Golden Rim, have been staying there for the past four years. Good food, pool, water slide, can drink beer in hot tub, reasonable rates and have always been looked after. Can't ask for more.

I have the same, saw works great and I use it all time. Can't count how may time I have used the saw but when I needed it works.

I got a snowpulse last year at the Edmonton sled show. There were several dealers at the show last year with different types of airbags. Nice to see them demonstrated and what kind of protection they give.

We have had good luck at Golden, started the season last year with a five day trip on the Remembrance day weekend. Road Quartz and I think Silent pass.

I would go with the Polaris, Try Cross-Country Sales in Sedgewick and check out their Web site. Good prices and service. No sales pressure. Sleds ready to go when in for servicing.

Just wondering if you would feel safer will a 16 year old who chalenged his boat operators card and passed at a boat show or a person who has operated a watercraft for 20 plus years without a operators card. For the most part what you have to do to get your boat operators card is a joke.

This same type thing at around same area was happening again at silent pass on Apr 2. 5 or 6 sledders watching while another was high marking. Wonder if it was the same group?

Some good points. I have always said training is always a good thing. Maybe CPR , First Aid and back country survival courses should also be required. My point here is where do we draw the line. But if you think a person with training is a safe bet to ride with, think again. There are sledders...

good for you, I will be doing the same

Spot would have worked great, time for new friends. Good outcome to a bad situation...

agreed

Agreed - all the training received is always good , makes us more informed and makes us open our eyes , but all the times I have been to the mountains I have yet to see someone dig a pit, not saying some don't. With all the warnings of high avy activity I would think common sense still plays a...

agreed, also done in a controlled environment.

I agree, been riding in the mountains for 15 plus years. I have no avy training but am able to see when a area is unsafe due to amount of snow, conditions before snow falls, avy warnings, angle of hill, over hangs , etc. I have to wounder where the common sence factor kicks in here. I also carry...

Re: Big Iron Slide @ Turbo March 13,2010 Again it shows how close the sledding community is and how quickly they are to assist in helping others when in need. Our heart felt condolences to the families to those who were lost and a speedy recovery to those who were injured.

No, stayed off the trails, road with some locals that knew their way around. They also didn't have passes.

Road to Child's lake, went across the lake which has the dam on it at the one end and had supper there which happened to be steak night and around Roblin the next day. Heard from the locals that trails were going to be patroled alot more and checking for passes and liquor. Some trails still were...

May need to contact Revelstoke Chamber of Commerce as this has to have an impact on business for the locals. They may be able to rattle some chains as far as policing goes as it affects the dollars in their pockets.

Sledded at Roblin Manitota on the Family day long weekend, around 18" plus of snow in fields. Just a note - if anyone is interested, that a trail pass is required. Only two types of passes are available which is a seven day and a seasonal and the fine if caught without one is $448.50....:nono:

I second that
