I think the poor guy was just making an observation on the general condition of the trail. It didn't come across as a massive complaint to me like your suggesting. Personally, I like to hear about not only snow conditions but trail conditions too and find this info valuable. I don't know why we seem to jump all over guys on here when there is the slightest report (as long as its written in a 'matter of fact' tone) of a trail turning rough. Just sayin........


All I am saying is we dont always get the opportunity to be the first guy behind the groomer and have the premium trail. I ride enough that I get to hear people complain to the volunteers that there is a few bumps, and they refuse to pay etc... I have paid and had bumpy trails too, but at least they are not huge swells. Grooming is not a money maker, by any means, and I for one am just happy that there is some.

And I am a season pass holder who rarely rides weekends, so i almost never get the premium trail days.

Un-tracked snow is still available for the taking, WITHIN-BOUNDARIES, not in Caribou Areas.\

Two of us from Martensville SK will be riding Blue River Mon-Thurs this upcoming week. We are experienced with the foam,salmon, big blue areas and curious at the moment about avalanche risks, generally we are clear of obvious risks and are avid tree riders. If anyone has some input that'd be great or if any others would like to meet up for a day as well, we will be grateful due to risks of small group in case of avalanche or other risks. We are fairly good experienced riders.

Purchase a Blue River Powder Packers membership if your planing to ride that area, COS (conservation officer service) have been patrolling and issuing tickets to non-compliant riders.

Memberships can be purchased at Glacier Inn Hotel, Blue River Sledz, or at the trail head info booths.

ON ANOTHER NOTE,

Due to snowmobilers staying at a local B&B last weekend, BRPPS has lost access to the REDSANDS STAGING AREA north of town. This group of riders attempted to jump the tracks 250 yards before the crossing to beat a train and avoid the BRPPS info/trail-head booth, one of the sleds had became stuck between the rails and the train had to make an emergency stop nearly hitting the trapped sled and rider.

BRPPS is in the process of trying to resolve the issue at this time.

NO PARKING AVAILABLE, North Side of Town

BIG THANKS going out to this group of individuals.

HOLY SMOKE .....DIGGER....

What does the B & B have to do with how some Guy ( idiot ) Rides ???

what Purpose does it Serve You to Slam and Blame the B&B ?? The Building did not Sled The Business did Not Sled there so REALLY what does the B & B have to do with it ???

I am Blown away that You of all people would Blame a Business ......would it have made a difference how the Idiot rides if He was staying somewhere else ?? ......I think NOT !

Thank You for the Slap in the Face after I say Only Nice things about your Business .....

I can only TELL PEOPLE THE RULES !! My Business has nothing to do with this ....

I would like a Apology please.....Hey when You brought over Our Plaque for Our Business Donating Money to the Blue River Powder Packers why didn't You bring Us a Membership Book then ? I asked You to please give us one and You said Yes No Problem .....I REALLY don't understand Why YOU would bring this to Snow & Mud UNREAL !
I didn't even know it was a Guest of Ours until Today ....SO WHAT it still has nothing to do with Our Business I was HORRIFIED when I found out that Today !!! But I have NOTHING to Apologize for I did NOTHING WRONG I DONT EVEN SLED !!
Why aren't the People at the Booths Selling them Memberships isn't that what they are getting Paid to do ??

i can't believe You would Blame Our Business UNREAL.....Next time maybe a phone call would Help Hey !
