2013/2014 Valemount Conditions and Updates!

[Bernoff]

couple years ago someone cut it from top to bottom with a cutoff saw of some sort. all crossbars and everything

They really do have entitlement issues. Big and tough when they did it but probably hiding in the back alley with the rest of the garbage now. Usually thats how it works with these little boys.

That is sweet! Thinking about changing our plans from vale to McBride as well for this weekend. Where do you find an bumper mount like that?

Summit River Lodge 20 km south of Valemount has the camera bumper mounts for sale
$150.00

Someone pleeeeeez bring back some info from today.....its been raining and or snowing twoonie sized flakes all day in the valley bottom. Too warm to stick around but it must be doing something gnarly up top. Anyone got any info?

Really??? This is the worst start with low snow conditions in 6 years maybe more and your complaining about the grooming conditions?? Give your head a shake. You should be lucky they have even started to groom yet. And what do you want to ride the trail for free? Cost a lot to run a groomer.

Please stay home and ride the ditches if your gonna bad mouth the groomers. Those guys are doing the best with what they have to work with.

So... We also rode Renshaw on Nov 28 and it was groomed awesome top to bottom...... dec 11 there was 5 ft of powder and way more snow and yes more sledders..... The point was if they are charging to ride a groomed trail they better groom it... Not sure if the comments are comin from couch potatoes or guys that where out that weekend....either way I will ride Valemount and ditch bang at home any time I like....back to the positive any new snow updates???

rode clemina monday trail was not great but hey, wasn't great 10 years ago when sleds didn't have great suspension. Now snow is really wind blow and hard, dropped down in back of lake plateau and snow was not bad. watch out for rocks and little trees
rode chappel today, trail was groomed, great thanks Vinnie, the snow was good for condition that valemount is in, setup but still deep.
heard talk in town that might be grooming for weekend.
Was snowing good up top and hit snow storm in edson that left a least 2 inches on hiway, drive home was fun
PS met people in parking lot of Allen tues morning and said they couldn't get passed ice patch so we went to chappel
Had a good days for this year. Thanks Curtis, and Alpine Country Rentals

As mentioned, we are setting tracks this week for a potential full on opening of our trail systems on Friday. Keep your fingers crossed.

things are looking better, I think... couple questions though. myself and a couple buddy's have done Christmas in valemount the last couple years but allen creek has always been open, how do you get on the old trail is there a beaten path? and hows chapel?

You go left right through the willows, not sure exactly how many km, been in that way twice, take the trail slow for the first bit youll see it, if you dont like scratches maybe not for you

That's way better... nice to see what's actually in town.

Through a complicated series of events I find myself alone with a sled at Summit River Lodge on Sunday. Anyone willing to let me tag along? I help a lot more than I get stuck and have AST one, av gear, and a reliable ride.

Lol ya its cool. The reason the other one is pointed where it was is so we(you) can see the weather over allen creek.
