Sicamous. Is it worth it?

[Metalfusion]

Have a trip booked for the 20th - 23rd in Sicamous. Doesnt sound like there is much snow right now. Is it worth going or should I cancel and wait a few weeks?

What areas are the best for Novice riders? It isnt the first time riding but the youngest is riding a 550 Supersport and wont be doing any big powder riding or hill climbs. Just want somewhere with a mix of conditions and terrain.

Was wondering the same thing! looking into booking a trip to Fernie and wondering if anyone has any insight or info?! Not newbie riders but all would be new to the mountains. Looking for adventure and fun and not afraid to go off the beaten path!

We were up Blue last weekend, there is enough snow for any good family day already. For us that play in the back 40, well still needs a bit more. Blue Lake is probably the best alaround area for novice riders, althought Queest would also be good. Check out fresh pics from our Presidente at sledsicamous.com

I ride up there all the time. Blue lake is a nice place to ride lots of open just off the gromed and about 26k if i remember correcktly of groomed to the chalet and some small to tall climes right at the cabin. we call them the training hills. Owls head has a bit more groomed trail to chalet 2or 3 km more but also has a fue more open medows or lakes that are safe to ride on and the groomed run right throught them. i havent been up there this year yet but have a trip planed for the 19-21 of dec and will update you goyes on snow conditions than. have fun and remember keep the rtack side down.
