We have set a few OPEN course dates to help with some decision making as many have been asking when our courses are.
We have set aside December 21-23, Jan 4-6 and 18-20 and Feb 1-3 so far. These are open courses where you do not need a group and can join in on a course.
Get on it before its...
The time is now
We wanna plan our winter early in order to train and meet as many of you as possible.....buuuuut also to ride as much as we can to build our own skill sets.
Don't forget to register for your open or private course between now and Oct 15 and you will receive the early bird rate...
Hey Guys,
Thanks for the questions. We operate a little differently around here and do not set dates until they are requested. Not sure if you guys ride together, but if so, pick a time that work for you both and get into contact with us. We will work with you and fill the remaining spots...
The Pirate Team is good at what we do. We take pride in our programs and services and are extremely excited for another season coming just around the corner. We love sharing our knowledge of the backcountry and we want to help you become a better partner to have on the mountain.
You owe it to...
Please folks. This is important to our entire community. One of our biggest volunteers and close friends could use a boost.
Please follow the link and vote for Randy Pruden.
It only take less than a minute and would be a big help. Earn some good karma going into a Tuesday.
Hey all,
I have nominated a local volunteer legend in Valemount for an amazing prize that he so badly deserves. If any of you could take less than a minute out of your day to click this link and then click on VOTE for Randy Pruden, it would be extremely appreciated.
Randy gives back to this...
yup, it was freaking cold up there yesterday, but much warmer this morning. Lots of wind affect out there that moved this weeks new snow all over the place and created slabs in open areas and lee features.
Best riding this weekend will be in sheltered areas such as the timber
We are coming into another weekend and the conditions are going to be epic. Please listen to all the warnings and just enjoy the new snow safely.
Here is a link to a little writeup in MTN Sledder discussing some concerns.

And please put down the farking camera. If I found out my buddies were filming me instead of helping I would likely change riding partners. I know videos are cool but Id rather to be alive.
This is a pretty cool thread. Good job folks.
Tenures for the most part do not provide any exclusivity. They just allow a company to work on crown land and charge a fee, then in turn, they pay a fee to back to the government for use of the land. A tenure does not block public access to any land. To guide on crown land, you are required...
Yes I understand that. But the red is his current tenure that he has held for a long time. The newly discussed "lease" idea developed in the 2003 8peaks SRMP is only around the community of Blue River from what I can tell. Still researching..
Sorry but I'm talking about the big red blob in the original post. From what I can tell, the lease area discussed in the 8 Peaks, while still very large and controversial, does not near cover his entire tenure (i.e. big red blob) or the area near Bone Creek.
I still think this is ridiculous...
I am trying to get clarification if this image floating around (big red blob) is the current tenure held by MWH or part of the 8 peaks proposal? The blob states that it is his current tenure. The red blob is much larger than the 8 peaks around Blue River. I am wondering if the red blob is his...
