Epic day today bluebird. No picture to fawkin cold for electronics. T3 is a sick machine!!!! Allan still has sooooo much snow. Ran into a cool dude that's been riding for 16 years so he doesn't need a beacon. Allan trail is still in good condition despite the very inexperienced riders with short sleds icing it up and getting stuck all over the place. Anyone with decent skills will have no issues
Did he have full Yamaha leathers on? He came blasting into the cabin, unzipped his coat and pulled out three or four split logs. Said there is no fing wood up here so I bright some from home. Lol. He was quite the character.

We had a hell of a time getting into these areas years ago with 121 -136 low profile tracks.
Now with 163-174 2.5 and 3 inch tracks you can pretty much coast over the bad areas.
People just don't give a crap anymore or just don't know as now one has talked with them.
A heck of a lot more sleds also and no experience .
Groomed trails and guys pin it and dig a big hole with a huge pile for someone to hit after it freezes ? Nice !!
But just the way it is and it's all about ME !!!!!!
Lol
Have fun and get used to it.

Some pics from Saturday. Woke up to the truck saying -34. Can't believe it started. Trail was pretty good except for a couple spots where people couldn't keep up their mow and came backwards down the ice.

Snow was deep and bottomless which made for lots of stucks.

So pretty unimpressed with how people can't take responsibility for what they do. Came back to our trailers back corner crunched in. Some one got stuck close to our truck and backed their sled deck into our trailer. Then of course got out and parked away from us before we got down.

How about a note? A number? Do you wanna come back to your sh!t wrecked and no body owning up to it?

Any way if any body saw something going on next to a black 07 mega cab and 20ft enclosed and happens to get a description or plate number that would be greatly appreciated.

Ps Hope your deck falls off on the drive home.

How is the riding in valemount right now? Is it crusty or is there lots of powder? Are there any storms supposed to be coming?

Rode on Sunday, lots o untouched in Allen. Seen a lot of signs of an unstable snowpack. Tho lots of untouched in low risk terrain. At the end of the day In Allen nobody had made tracks past avalanche alley. We didn't bother cause of sled issues and had plenty of tree riding behind hillclimb.
