Re: Today's Ride Sicamous, Deep Pow!

Anyone able to take some Alberta kids out for a tour round Christmas time??

Call the lodge. If Ribi gets an A-Arm he might be able to help you out!

Team Combine Pilot thanks Rene and the boys for the awesome day! Good thing you guys don't charge by the ski pull or our man Frizzle would be looking at a 40 year mortgage!!

Re: Today's Ride Sicamous, Deep Pow!

went thru Sicamous today & you would never know there's that much POW up top.... dry as a popcorn fart in town. Stopped in to see I Dare Ya & was really impressed with the lodge! something new & shiny there each time I see it. New deck & tub outside, everything looks awsum & clean! Can't wait to get over there for a ride again with I Dare Ya. :d

Cheers & play safe

Had a blast ridin with Team Newfie and the Combine Pilots! It is still snowin here, went to Eagles yesterday and Owlhead today. need a couple more feet at Eagles. Owlhead today was Deeeeeep! Went to Stash cabin and had lunch.
Last 2 pics are the trail and gas drop at Eagles.

That trail sure looks different when it's not groomed. I remember doing that last stretch years ago when the groomer didn't go up there - Moguls the size of Volkswagen...lol...

 

[I Dare Ya Rene!]

Went up Owlshead today with Raspberry Nytro, Stinky Hammer, Ghostbuster, Ribi and Skidmark Joe. Broke a trail through to Gordon Sydney, the Luge needs a bit more but we navigated an overpass to the middle! I was a little pumped, been ridin up Owls and Hunters for 29 years and have never been able to get across in November, always early or mid Dec.! There was tons of blue sky and sun, snow has settled a bit but was still an epic day!
Rasberry had a ghostrider down chute below Gordon Sydney and Stinky Hammer dropped some nice cliffs! MCX Nytro from Vernon motorports rocks, got 500 km already, pump gas and turn the key! Battery died on camera but Raspberry and Stinky said they would post some pics. Cheers, Rene.

Up Owlshead yesterday, Club sanded road to 2km parking lot. Trail was really good in, need scratchers or you will overheat. Snowing steady all day, found 18 inches of untouched stuff and lots of great boondockin. Nothin movin for avy's but there will be if we get a big dump on the exposed layers. Cheers, Rene.
