Trail was good but must have been 300 riders up there


Just need to read the posts.
But yes trail was open. Getting real bumpy on way down but like mention must have been couple hundred sleds. We left at noon and people were still rolling in. Snow was good but lots of hike and open creeks.

Rode Clemina today
Spent 3/4 of it in morning glory
Powder coming over the hood all day.
We got about 30 min of sun and never actually broke over the top.
Went to the goat bowl at the end of the day, good powder but lots of riders chewing it up.

Long shot but I lost my phone on the 26th in the bottom parking lot, phones prob toast but I'd like to try and salvage my sim.

We were parked pretty much right beside the road into the upper lot. There was only about 5 trucks in the bottom lot when we left, I had great plans of searching for it today but the lot was completely full. If anyone happened to stumble upon it a pm would be awesome, its a note 3 no pen and has a otter box case

I believe we have your phone. I have not seen it yet, but staff turned a phone in to the office. I will be there from 8-9 this morning before heading out into the field. Our new office is located at 1020 commercial drive. Turn left before the caribou grill. third building in.

Good morning,

As mentioned above, the snow is great out there and yes its busy, its the holiday season.

The storm on the 26th caught us by surprise as it was only supposed to drop 5cms. All parking lots are to be plowed before the crowds hit this morning. Please park smart and respectful, AWAY from the entrances to the staging areas and always be prepared for winter conditions in the parking lots.

Lots of new load out there. Please ride smart and lets all have a safe holiday season!

The skies opened up just before the busy holiday season and the alpine snow has been pretty amazing. Groomers have been out in full force and will continue through to the new year. There is certainly some riding pressure over the holidays although there are many fresh lines left out there and it looks like we may even be getting some sun over the weekend.

Please remember good backcountry etiquette and pack out what you pack in and lend a hand to those who need it!

A big thanks to tpowers crew today. Got stuck turning around on a steeper trail and got stuck. They lent a hand.

Saw some cops in the parking lot no clue what the incident Curtis mentioned was.
