sorry about that, staff reported trucks parking in the upper lot at allan all weekend, not sure how bad they could be if trucks still can make it up there. I also drove by them on monday and they all looked just fine.

Sorry you got stuck, i will have them checked again

I love stuck in parking lot :d Most of the time it means either a few pops :beer: at the end of the day with new friends (help for push). Or deep snow both are ok buy me. Oh yah if I see you stuck I'll help but I push harder after a few pops:p

If you look back a page, i did a brief update yesterday

Snow is good from the lots and should be for some time still, although you should expect spring like conditions in the alpine

Enjoy the sun !

You think will still be able to ride the trail from the bottom of the parking lot by easter? Was out there for easter last year the snow conditons were awsome but easter was a couple weeks early.

LOL, yes it was a very sticky situation.....we had to pull it up the rest of the way with a rope, due to the S turn in the middle of the run and the cliff/trees below........but sure was a sick line. Didnt power out, just got bucked the wrong way:(

Yeah, I had to hit the Keyhole ! :d A 2.5 sure would have helped, but the highmark in there was done by a PIMPED MM 860 that I was running with.

The Etec was RUNNING SICK yesterday !

Its only gonna get better ! Tomorrow is another Day !

Day off, Anyone in town ?
