You guys who are shredding snorkel deep pow suck! This growing up/saving for a house/limited sledding thing bites!!!

The handle bar deep snow is over rated. Last weekend it cost me a belt, cooked my exhaust sensor and computer. I also burnt WAY too much fuel being WOT all day. So far that trip has cost me $14.85 per mile. WORTH EVERY CENT! LOL. I'm still smiling and can't wait to come back!!!!

Unreal snow out there right now and still coming down. Definately time to tone it down and rip the deep in non avalanche terrain for the next while.

Ripped amazing snow all day today without a hill in sight......too deep to try to climb anything anyway...lol

:Cool9:

It is incredible snow conditions last couple days. Lots of stucks. But poor visibility. Hopefully better Sunday.

Is the snow light and dry? Was there any rain? Looks like a lot of the SE of BC got the heavy wet snow/rain.

Rain to 1000m yesterday till 11am then solid snow till valley bottom until mid morning today. Over 40cm in the last 24hrs. Insane riding today and even got to rip in some blue sky. Snow to 1400m is still quite heavy and wet, although temps in the alpine reached -8 today so still great riding in the safe alpine terrain.
