Was hoping to make a trip out to golden for the 28th and 1st of march. Was wondering if anyone has an idea about the current conditions and where would be the best spot for some good, deep snow...
Now this sounds like a real snow report:d braaaap braaaapSuper deep out here this week! We just got close to 3 feet of snow in Quartz area! Went out for a quick roop today, and it was soo fun. Couldn't see a think not because the light was bad... just because snow was hitting you in the face constantly! YEEHAAAAAAAA
Hey, snowed a bit in the valley the last couple days. Word is that Golden is getting hit harder than us, so that' good!
Should be some good snow at Quartz as the snow is hitting harder to the north and west. Silent is getting some good snow too. Seems like the hardest hit areas are going to be Revy and Fernie area, but Kicking Horse ski hill at Golden is reporting 17cms over the past couple days and more coming today-tomorrow. Locals are hoping for 25-30 up top.
Sledder 8284 -I would definitely keep your trip planned for this weekend, best snow we've seen for a couple months. If you plan a trip to Quartz one day and Silent Pass the next, you should get some good riding in. Snow is forecast lightly on the weekend so vis may be low, but those areas are good to get around in and have lots to offer at lower levels so no need to ride the alpine if vis is bad.
We're riding Friday (most likely Silent Pass) but could be Quartz Friday and Silent on Saturday. If anyone wants to tag on with us, might only be two of us on Friday. May escort some friends to Silent on Saturday so that may decide where/when we ride which area.
Sledder 8284 if you want to ride Silent you can tag on with our group on Saturday. I'll let you know our plans once they firm up.
What are you riding? How many are coming? We gonna be digging alot? LOL.
