Hey Folks

We got the park out today thanks to Galena and Pat. Huge thanks to them for volunteering and thank all of you above who offered to help.

Now staging at 11km. Hopefully some patches will melt before the weekend as complete snow cover does not begin till about 12.5km.

Still riding over a 160cm snowpack and it was a blast ! I would highly recommend one last ride this weekend, but please remember that you must be prepared to ride some dirt. If the weather is ugly for fishin this weekend, i may just see some of you out there as it was just that good still.

went up saturday. rain was coming down pretty good,staged at km 13 i think, great snow from there,all day long you could see and hear stuff coming down some big avys you could hear in dixon. visability was crappy but was a great time and i can cross sledding in june off my list.

big thanks to treedragon for finding our socket set on the trail down and bringing it back up to the truck, thanks man, too bad ya had to leave us early..

we probed 178 cm in one of the spots higher up so still lots to play on, but the rain sure is making it disappear quickly, i would say theres still a week or so left to ride up there.

FatGuy; went up saturday. rain was coming down pretty good said:
Not a problem had a little time to spare but i figured out why i had to go home early my throttle body boot ripped causing it to lose boost and would suck air at idle so the motor is all good. I had a wicked couple of hours in June/November here's a video of the beautiful day p.s i suck at editing!!!!

Ha right on. Well maybe there's still some snow up there. I would like to do the 23rd but I think it's got to be pretty thin now.

Curtis is there still snow around? Lol

I rode the weekend of the 23rd 2 years ago. Never again. Better off bringing an atv. Not to mention once we did hit the alpine after destroying our sleds and truck the snow was so rotten it wasn't even ridable. Just sayin LOL.
