weather

that being said, Sean is more daring than i, those boulders are very large and I for one will NOT be riding rememberance day for the first time in SEVEN years unless it snows HUGE in the next two days.

Some of you may be more hardcore than I, but I have to draw the line somewhere and riding boulders for 5km is it.

Sorry for the brutal honesty, but I hope its appreciated

[Depsnolvr]

wasnt the gate closed on the new trail...........

 

[kamo kitty]

Hey Curtis, is it obvious where the new and old trails are so we dont go up the new one? Will there be a gate like you said that will be closed. Cant remember the trail very well. thanks a bunch!

 

[Depsnolvr]

absolutely, thanks for asking

you cant miss it. at 3km there is signage and snowfencing as well as a BIG steel gate just around the corner. This is strictly to preserve snow and prevent icing of the trail so we are able to provide you all with a groomed trail ASAP !

the problem with that forcast is that the riding areas are effected completely different. as anyone knows 10 mins down the road from valemount is a completely different ball game either good or bad. i beleive there is enough snow in the alpine its the lower access that needs a good dump. so if you think its going to snow 1-2ft in the next week then by all means it should be ok. thats what im hoping for. just going through my pics from last year this weekend had at least 2-3ft extra.
