And the forecast for the next 2 weeks is sunshine... Maybe it is over :(

It's over for me unless thing's DRASTICALLY change, like a major dump. Haven't been out for 3 weeks now, last weekend had plan too but with these condition's LOL

The good thing i will get more of my honeydoo list done and more time for fishing, even maybe an early start.

No DESPERADO riding for this guy....................5 cm hahaha.............watch out you might get stuck

Yep, got my step daughter and her guy coming from Vancouver island. The plan was to rent a couple of sled's for them and ride Revy area for couple day's during the easter break, they've never really sledded. Well step daughter has a little, nothing to call experience. Anyhow plan is now fubar cause of this crap season, told them to bring the ATV's instead cause that's what we will be doing.
So yes the RZR will be coming out, so i hope the snow will be gone by then......hahaha sorry, them r fightin words these days lol

Not Sure
Anyone been up this week? Thinking about coming out on Friday.

Have not been out this week As it just doesnt seem worth it so been skiing instead. Sunny and dry. It is spring riding if you come. About what you might expect six weeks from now normally. Hard crust at elevations and running creeks down low. No snow forecasted.

conditions today were a pleasant surprise. staged at 2.5 km no issues driving up and the t3 made her up top with out overheating. Saw some new to me terrain and found a foot of fresh in some areas. There were some flurries and stretches of sunshine as well.

Yeah, wasn't a bad day, I've had worse this year for sure.

Had a decent day at Hunters today, sun was shining and there was about 4" of fresh to keep the sleds cool. Found a few spots that had drifted in about a foot and half deep. Still needs to warm up a bit before we get some good spring slush to ride on though, hopefully we see a good dump of fresh before then.

I was up yesterday in hunters yesterday and Ran into Trent Backus. Great experience he led us around to areas that had about a foot of fresh. He also shared some riding techniques as well and did some refreshers on Alpine riding safety. I have been to a few Riding clinics and Trent's presentation demeanor and teaching skills are as good if not better than others I have experienced. Would totally recommend his services to others. He supports his local club and is a responsible young man.
