Just groomed and about 16" on the trail.
2,5-3' fresh is my uneducaTed guess.
Lots more where wind loaded.
Bit of a blizzard on aND off so did not venture to far.
Had to use spare can and 1/8 left at truck.
Excellent day.
Alpha running really well.
The deeper it gets the more fun it is.

Just got back from Mcbride blizzard like hiway conditions snow at renshaw and belle is super low... trails in and out best I have ever seen tho...Mcbride really needs this storm to dump the white stuff... trees and valleys have good snow but every alpine climb we where hitting rocks... this storm is needed for Mcbride... thanks again for the awesome grooming

McBride Cabins taking a beating this year so far. The new first aid kit was stolen, some Cory dick carved his name the table, garbage left everywhere in one and now this.

Can't speak to the last one, looks to me like the heater exhaust got hot not sure that is anyone's fault except for maybe a poor installation? The other two are definitely uncalled for.

They just had a post on their FB page days prior too about people changing/altering the settings. They had the heaters checked and serviced and asked on their page for people to stop messing around with.
