Just thought i would share my pics from the trip. Definitely a great end to the 2010-2011 season. Had alot of fun riding in the 3-4' of fresh powder. Visibility was poor the first 2 days of the ride, but the last day we finally got a day with sun, even got a little sun burnt.

We arrived wednesday night in town with 12" of snow in the parking lot of the hotel. In fact we got stuck in the parking lot and well thats where the truck stayed the entire trip. haha Woke up thursday morning to more snow and it snowed all day. We broke trail on the trail and never seen another group the entire day. Thursday night it snowed and continued to snow off and on all day friday. Saturday was the only day we had off and on sun but the snow set up and got sticky.

Either way it was a great trip and the best snow i have ever ridden in. We couldnt have hit the trip any better. Was fun to meet up with a couple fellow snowest members. Even one of them is from canada. lol

The vids will take some time to get uploaded, but here are the pics from the trip. Enjoy

This is what we woke up to the first morning.
