Anybody have a picture by the cabin at Renshaw, probe depth of snow? Would like to know where the snow is at compared to the deck.

Wed. the snow was even with or just slightly above the deck. With all the wind it could be drifted different by now.

Snochuk, when i was there last week it was around 2 1/2 steps up. Been riding yet?? Higgins.

Haven't been out riding yet, just put the sled back together and was going to go for a rip at the farm but to cold for me. Haven't even put my deck on yet, will do that on boxing day. Wanted to try a few new spots by McBride but may have to be patient and ride the regular spots for a while yet. Thanks for the reply.

-10 and a bit windy today. Not too bad. Visibility is good. Let's hope the weather stays decent for Christmas break. Will keep you updated.

Bbtoys has gone up Renshaw today to help dig the horse trench. He should have some pictures to post when he gets back.

-12 up top today and still alot of snow to be had. Dug for 3 hours today, there was 9 of us. 4 up top and 5 from the bottom, I started at the bottom so didn't see the horses and if everyone that said they are coming tomorrow show I think we will have the 2 trails connected. What a ton of work to dig this but it is the only way.
