How did the sidewinder perform? Any footage of her?

Just wondering if anyone has some relevant information on snow conditions and staging or if this site is completely useless?

Just spent the past three days in Revy. Everyday was deep and off and on sun! Trails up Frisby and Boulder were awful. Rode keystone yesterday and we dug out the side hill. Im sure we were the first ones past it this year! All the hard work is done for someone! Cheers

How was the snow in Keystone? Where did you ride from?

Also from Revy area we were deck only everywhere we went, snow line was between 1100-1400 meters before hitting rideable snow.

The snow that fell in town yesterday didn`t amount to much at lower elevation again, but I think you will see a great improvement on the trail conditions today
Please do not drive your vehicles past the grooming machines parked on the trails!!!!!!

Rode Frisby & Boulder last two days lot's of untouched snow but creeks are a constant hazard. If the vis is good it's nice albeit the snow is set up pretty good in most places and you could climb Everest. So much so that I cat walked my 850 over backwards on a straight climb on my first ride.(I can't be bothered to post pics here I did post a pic on Instagram #badgrampa408) If the vis is low and you want to go full on be prepared to go over the bars unless your a local and really no the area.The woops on both hills are brutal. If you think it's like last season's early riding it's not close but it worth the trip if you come out lots but if you come a few times a year wait till it snows a meter or two. I took my enclosed up to 7 km Kirkup yesterday made it in and out, pucker factor at 10 in and 10+ coming out with skiff of fresh The sign posted half way up is a little misleading. I will check with a local before I bring my trailer next year.

We had plans of trying to put in trails this morning. The snow last night forecasted did not happen and it rained at the elevation the machines are at this morning.
We are telling you DO NOT HAUL BIG TRAILERS UP THE MTNS.!!!!!!!
Use trucks/decks and 2 place open trailers. You need good winter tires, you are travelling up a steep, snow covered, icy, single wide mtn. rd. Parking and turn arounds are limited, the snowline changes everyday with precip and temps.
This morning again we have 2 big enclosed trailers jack knifed blocking the rd. on Boulder.

Yesterday at 6km I had to stop on the road as I saw a snow bike leaving the lot. I slid backwards down the road. This is with a sled deck and brand new studded winter tires. Oh yeah the snow isn't even that good right now. There is only 4 feet at the cabin at boulder.

Dinner tkts for the event Fri. night are sold out now, thanks everyone for your support. Everyone else is still welcome to join us at 8 p.m. for the auction/raffle. The Hillcrest is running a shuttle for us, please call the hotel 250 837 3322 for the pick up schedule.
See you all tomorrow.

Both Mtns. are being groomed right now. We will not be charging tomorrow and nor will our staff be trying to park everyone up a steep, icy, snow covered, single lane road.
We are doing the best we can with the conditions that we are dealing with now.
Snow in the forecast and you all better be snow dancing for things to get better. My feet hurt!!!!!
