Ahh I think it was more than a foot in the trees and some of the wind deposited areas.
Also met the groomer heading up the trail on the way down...

We rode at Clemina today. Trail up and down was wicked. Got there fairly early so let the fire in the cabin then headed to lake view plateau. Snow was between 8” - 16” with deeper in the trees and pockets. Then headed to danger basin, roughly the same. Bluebird day, finished in bauer’s Nice rice to finish off the weekend. Still lots of areas left.
Just when I was about to do the vale report of where we were today.

Spring like conditions have meant good soft snow in the afternoons and blue bird skies over the last several days. The riding has been quite good.
The forecast is a bit of a mix bag with some small rain events suggested this week. This could mean and nice reload for the mountain tops over the next few days which would set us up great for the weekend ahead.
As spring conditions may be settling in, it’s a perfect time to take a right turn where you usually turn left, you might just find yourself a new honey hole!
Remember to always be aware of your surroundings and the current avalanche conditions. Read your local bulletin from avalanche.ca before every ride.

Ha. Sure.
We managed to make some fresh tracks at Allen on Sunday.. Conditions were not amazing by any means but poke around in the corners and you find some fun treelines/untouched areas. It was Pretty quiet in the parking lot.. icy trail in the morning but sun was playing peek-a-boo and by early afternoon had softened up the snow.

Sorry no first hand info as I am still not riding unless necessary due to an injury, but there are reports of some decent snow out there.
Riders at clemina yesterday reported 15cms of fresh snow and snowflakes hammering down as the day was ending.
Snow in the forecast over the next two days, so hoping for some good conditions heading into the weekend.
All trails are still being groomed when needed and have full coverage as of now.
Staging areas are in good shape and it's a great time to get out for a ride!
If you have been out this week, please let us know what you found!

Anywhere from ski to bumper deep. Windy, socked in and snowing hard but it was a good day with making first tracks into the back. Only saw one other group where we were today.
