[pete gads]

It's not just "young guys" that wreck the trail...its anyone that doesn't get the concept of momentum. Got a bunch of friends riding this weekend, got my christmas party this weekend so hoping to get out next weekend or at least somewhere before newyears. I'm going through withdrawal already

Last weeks storm dropped over a meter of snow onto the Valemount area. Although this has largely settled, we finally have the true coverage we need to begin the good riding season. The alpine has been a bit wind hammered since the last large snowfall on the weekend although as seen from the picture, there is still some great snow to be found.

The snowpack is still holding those nasty lower crusts that the great people at Avalanche Canada are talking about and we are seeing a lot of avalanche activity on N-NE aspects.

We are sending the groomers up the trail for the first set today and hope to be on a regular schedule from now on, so sledders should be prepared to purchase trail passes ($25) beginning December 05 for the Allen and Clemina areas. Chappell creek will not require trail passes until the following Friday as this trail typically does not handle the first set as well.

All in all, its good to go in Valemount. Check the bulletin, check your safety gear, get out there and ride smart.

BUT WE NEED HELP The garbage being left in the cabins has to stop! Pack out what you pack in and please ask others to do the same. The walls are NOT for you and your cool buddies to carve your name into and if there is a mound of snow stopping to door from opening, please just get out your shovel and remove it. Come on guys, please help us out a little with this stuff.

Hey Ryan. So there isn't enough snow to get through the cut blocks?

Correct. Stay out for your own safety

 

[SaskSummit]

We're you there today Maxwell?

 

[maxwell]

Lol no

 

[SaskSummit]

Haha we will wait for a better source before making the decision. Lol

 

[Ryan7]

Well I'm sure a guy could make it if you had your heart set on it. There is one spot on he trail about 1 km from the blocks where there's a hump to get over and I spun over a stump. Figured if it was that bad already it will only get worse. Willows are pounded down if you wanna give it a shot tho.
