Rode Groundhog on friday. It snowed easily over a foot up top friday while we were there and was hammering all day and as we left. Snow was just below the knee at the start of the day and by the end it was mid thigh and coming over the hood everywhere!! Came back to the truck and there was an easy 8" inches accumulated in the lot while we were up top. The main trail was decent with a few woops. The spur up to grondhog was like a highway. The girl at the booth said they were going to groom yesterday but cant confirm as we had to leave Blue early due to one of our riders having a health issue; so we left some fresh for everyone else. Go to blue if you like Epic conditions - its worth the drive even with the condition the highways are currently in.

Anybody got any info on a human triggered avvy near thunder river today ?


Thunder river is closed to snowmobiling right? Then how could it be human triggered? You mean someone was actually disrespecting the boundaries, and jepoardizing the snowmobiling sport. Must not have been there then.
