Any updates on the Atlas road situation or general snow conditions? Lookin to get out for a ride around the 2nd week of december, and bringing a newbie. Figured Atlas road up to the warming cabin was the best combination of easy and scenic. Not sure I'd bring her down the pipeline first day...

Well the 'Trail' heading south of Castle Mountain is usually super rough, it never gets groomed. The stump hit happened in one of the off-trail play areas. There are no stumps on the trail lol. I guess I could have punctuated it differently to be more clear. It was pretty good! Creeks are...

It was pretty good! Creeks are mostly covered, 1 more good storm and it'll be game on. The trail is in amazingly good shape so far, Buddy I was riding with hit a stump and broke an a-arm at noon so it was time for caesars at the T-bar pub a little earlier than expected. Staging area is a big...

Going to check out Castle on Saturday, will report back.

I have a few friends that are hardcore into the snowbikes, mostly KTM or Husqy thumpers and 1 Husqy 300. I've yet to try one, the only time I've been out sledding with one, (the 300 2-stroke) everyone was in a panic to try it, a couple guys crashed it and mangled the pipe so bad that it barely...

Anyone gonna be riding near Whitefish this weekend? Coming down today and staying til Tuesday, staying at a cabin on the ski hill but I'm the only one in the group with a sled. Not sure if I should bring it or not. Beginner skill level and very conservative on terrain selection, can usually...

3 of us were there last Monday, Jan. 11th. Good base, and we had about 4" of fresh that day. Pics are from just across Middle Kootenay Pass, we rode in that one area all day. And, as usual the T-bar Pub didn't disappoint!

Looks like Castle is still 'good to go' for now anyways, ESRD wording is `Snow Vehicle``. I plan to go sledding there once the ski hill opens, nothing beats a beer & pizza at the T-bar pub after a day of riding. Super vibrant après scene, and still good value for food & lodging. Rode there...

One of my best buddies bought a brand new loaded 01 2500 CCSB 8.1L/ally in January 02, I think he paid 38k for it. Was a pretty great truck, lifted from day one and he put 405,000km on it with no engine work required. Thirsty as hell, and went through a tranny, couple t-cases, bunch of front...

I'll upload some pics later, On my 27' 5th wheel I did what has been suggested already. Used a Zip-disc to cut the welds and remove the spring mounts from the frame, Weld them to a piece of 2"x 6"x 0.188" (3/16") Rectangular tubing, then weld the tubing back on to the trailer frame, making sure...

The Downtowner Inn is decently clean, cheap (~$90/night iirc), has an outdoor hot tub and is the place to stay if you plan on partying at night, since its only a block from all the great restaurants and bars on Central Avenue. Amazing night life for a smaller town, hands down better than...

Similar thing happened to me a couple years ago (07 F350). I had a few beers so the gf was driving, we got kinda stuck leaving camp, and in the process of trying to get unstuck she was holding the steering wheel against the stop with lots of rpms. We got out but there was very little, if any...

We went again today (saturday the 28th), access is getting really tricky. Things were looking grim as we drove up, raining and windy. The atlas road alternates from snow/slush to gravel dozens of times between the staging area and the turnoff to Window. Just when you think its time to park...

Pic from yesterday at Dean's Park. Atlas road had snow right from the staging area, we parked at km 5 across from the old horse camp, as it was raining in the morning and wanted to make sure we had snow to ride on back to the truck. A few bare spots north of Racehorse creek near the cabin...
