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!!!!!


K!!!!!!
Look for the PINE MARTINS!

Once they appear, the conditions have the ability to handle the SK and AB FARMER boys................LOL!

Good to hear the grooming is started.........

See ya in two weeks.. Cant beat Homer and Dan!

Good to hear Kathy, really wanted to make it to the dinner Friday but can't get away early enough. Have six people staying with us that are in the same boat (damn work).
This is two years in a row, we haven't made it, I'm not a happy camper. Have fun maybe see you all on Saturday.

We rode sale last Sunday couple trucks/trailers down there in parking lot but you have a few km of more gravel than snow and it melted down low the last few days. Think we parked at 5km and still had at least 3km of rocks mud.

In them hills.

It can be if you want it bad enough.
But there was about 7 km where there was more snow then gravel.

And don't go there expecting to find snow, Sale has the easiest access so it was pounded out a day after the big dump last weekend.

Anywhere from 1-4. Only a good 5ish spots at 4km depending on how guys park. 3km is your best bet. The road anywhere lower from there is fine. Bigger trailers at 2ish.
