2010/2011 BLUE JEWEL /BLUE RIVER Updates and Conditions !

[Fatdaddy]

Snow conditions are not that bad you guys. There is not 10 feet but is good riding. Took the kids to Foam Creek & Miledge. Rode in 3 feet of fluff at miledge today. I would say other than the river xing at foam creek 2 days of excellent riding so far. Ride safe & happy cat skinning!!!

You guys actually crossed that creek

We pulled up to it on the way back to the truck just to have a look at how bad it was and saw the big rocks, 2' of open water, the ice-burgs and decided to ride highway. One guy in our group however swore he could have used the ice-burgs and jumped across 'Dukes-of-Hazard' style. He had a broken A-arm already so we told him to cool it.

C'mon Sledlift. I want to head to Blue and Ride Jan1-Jan3. You can sneak out of the house. Tell that cousin with the Sh*tty Kitty to come west instead.

It will be lonely going alone (and a lot harder to dig my sled out).
