Dam stators. But yes I agree. Needs to be tossed to the bush.

Not sure what part of Valemount you were in but I wish we could have stayed . There's still tons of awesome snow to be found.

Was in valemount this past weekend,
Saturday, rode clemina: The trail was holding up great only 2 small areas where dirt was showing, the area where a small trail runs beside the logging road is almost bare, be careful for large loose rocks. Then from there it’s in great shape.
We hit lake view down in the bottom and found good snow 8” to 14”, even deeper in wind deposed areas. No complaints there. Then went and played the trees in bauer’s, if you look for it there’s still areas. As it softened up in the afternoon it was decent. Had a 76 mile day, just made it to the truck with the fuel i had. Was with a good group.

Sunday rode Alan Creek, trail is in great shape, getting low on a few areas but very manageable. By the cabin and perimeter areas are quite tracked but when you venture off there’s lots of playing. We hit an area just north of hill climb that was basically untouched, we spent 3 hrs in there and had a great time anywhere from 5” - 18” snow.
Good spring snowmobiling, no complaints

Been riding Valemount for years and actually have a place out there so I know the area well..... went right to the back of allen and every area was totally tracked out but i guys some people can ride circles for hour and have fun..... the warm then colder temps had the snow set up real hard.... and over hill climb to the right was also pounded flat Sunday anyways because we where the first sleds into there earl Sunday morning...... you try to post honest conditions on here and someone always bashes ya..... nice

Wasn't bashing,just making an observation.Obviously your definition of "pounded flat" is much different than mine.:dWe rode a lot of untracked snow at Allan on Sunday. Rode Dixon Glacier yesterday.Zero tracks on it and due to poor vis,we left a whole lot of it untracked.

How many kms from the cabin at allen is considered the “back”

Not like that at Allan this weekend, much better snow in blue, worth extra drive, vale needs a reload for sure

 

[brian h]

those pics ron posted are from sunday at allen, didnt have to venture far to find the untouched areas.

 

[rknight111]

Not like that at Allan this weekend

These pictures were from Allan Sunday April 8. And yes they would need a reload by now. By about 1pm daily the snow is softening up as well which makes it a bit better.

[Mike270412]

[brian h]

those who say rons pics arent from sunday check with the bed and breakfast for ron rode sat and sunday, mike rode sunday and monday so only time they rode together was sunday. when the sun comes out and softens the snow and your not on the beaten path the conditions are good for this time of year
