Not as much as last year. But average I'd say or a little below average maybe

Gnorm the gnome says spring is officially here

Snow in the lots is disappearing fast. Snow on lower trails is holding up. This may change on the West side trails as the warm temperatures continue this week.
The RSC is grooming on a as needed schedule now, there are not a lot of riders using the trail systems.
We are asking riders at Boulder to park in the front lot until the back lot dries up.
We have made a trail around the front Boulder lot on the snow bank with access points to get you up on the snow.
We usually groom until the Caribou closures open on Apr. 16th. This year it might be different.

How is the lower trails holding up at Boulder and Frisby?

 

[climbmax]

Snow has some rotting. Never seen it like this in March. We went from -20 to +20 in a couple weeks. So unless you just want to sight see or build a Booter, save your time and money. Saw some crazy naturals as well. Soooooo……...unless we get a serious return to winter, its not looking good.

How is the parking situation now? Coming out for the April 4th weekend. Still in the main lot or up to the junction?

Access is good. I rode yesterday. The conditions are gayer than listening to a Trudeau speech. The alpine is like melted ice cream that’s been re froze.

 

[Hughman]

Rode Boulder today it was beautiful!
Ha Ha.

 

[Jorg Jorgenson]

Nothing looks wrong with that

 

[Hughman]

Throwing a feeler out to see if the snow is better north or town or south? Looking to make a plan for tomorrow’s riding!

Today I went way out. Much Higher than 7000’ we had dry pow. Blowing nutz and sidehilled for days. Even got pow in my face. Way better than my first day. It’s definitly not your typical March. Green trees and rocks melted clean up top. Kinda looks like May. I really hope we get a good 2 days long storm. Very few sleds in town.
