Bluebird day and snow was great, had to end short due to a blown shock. Anyone know if I can get this thing rebuilt in town?
Otherwise, trails are in great shape and snow up high is still soft.

Try Alpine. They are closed now but will be open tomorrow morning.

WoW, conditions are awesome for spring ! Chappell was in prime shape today with approximately a foot of fresh everywhere:d The trail in is in superb shape and good to go for tomorrow. The switchbacks will be a bit soft and bumpy, but other than that its great. Sooo good infact, that we will be grooming it again for next weekend, so get out here and ride !

Clemina and Allan will be groomed up tonight and maintained througout the weekend. Soon we may be to start grooming from 4km at clemina due to a few small patchy sections on the hydro line trail. The Allan trail looks like it will last until the easter weekend at least:Cool9:

Ride Safe !

Hmm Surprised Clemina was that crusty?

Just to clarify, the bare spots on the trail are tiny, and maybe 3 or 4 of them at the most, as I rode it this morning as well to check the snow level for grooming. Hardly worth mentioning. We will be riding this trail for some time to come still, due to the main road system plowing.

Her is a pict of the trail head at Allen, looks awsome for this time of the year. Thnks to Curtis and groomer for a awsome ride in and out yesterday. The same coment for Chappel on Friday. Ton of snow on trails. Excellent couple days riding, other than the piss poor sleep at the BW thanks to the 7 drunks in the parking lot till 2.30 in the morning thinking there grey ford truck stereo sounded good AND the manager of the BW did not want to hear my complant what a *itch.

Thanks to Curtis and the rest of the peeps in Valemount who made our "invasion" a big success.

IF YOU DIDN'T RIDE DEEP POWDER THIS WEEKEND YOU MUST HAVE BEEN HANGING OUT AT THE CABIN!

Apparently is has been snowing quite hard up there the last two days. Yesterdays riders reported to the trailhead staff this morning, that there was over a foot of fresh snow up Allen Creek:d Conditions up should be great for this weekend, especially with the upcoming forecast


Not certain on the Clemain access, due to the detiorating hydo line section, but I will be checking that friday am for the Saturday groom and will determine then, BUT ALLEN and Chappell should both be prime for this weekend !

Please Remember, conditions are warm and trails detiorate fast. As long as people still want us to groom, I will keep it going as long as we can, but please expect spring like conditions for the lower trails:beer:
