How as everyone's weekend? It was so great to see some pow and sunshine and it made for an epic weekend! It looks like we have a week of very warm temperatures and beautiful clear skies ahead. The trails are smooth and the access is great. Bring the sunscreen and get out for a mid week rip and enjoy some of these amazing conditions.

It’s so great to see some pow and sunshine, and the combo is making for amazing riding conditions! It looks like we have a week of very warm temperatures and beautiful clear skies ahead.
We have been getting a whole lot of questions about access due to this warm weather. All access trails have full coverage and will for some time and as of now, parking and access is as it normally would be, and we will update with any changes.
Conditions wise, there are still lots of spots left with untouched snow remaining from the last storm, but the warm temps have worked it a bit. A rider should look forward to some amazing spring like conditions at this time.
Ride safe

We will be grooming all three areas again this evening and then will continue to maintain them as conditions and usage permit.
All access trails have full coverage as of now and staging is as it normally would be. We will continue to update with any major changes.
The warm temperatures are not helping the trail quality. We have had exceptional trails this season, but in this spring like weather, things are not holding up well and we appreciate your understanding of this, as we do our best to maintain the trails with the conditions given.
Rain and warm temperatures are in the forecast for the next few days.
The alpine riding conditions are more similar to late April ride than late march, but we have been having some amazing “spring” riding.

Really hoping the inch of rain in the forecast means means snow at 5000'.

Driving back from Kamloops with the family yesterday and found this guy in the Chappell parking lot at around 2:30. He was eating the grain pile in the parking lot. Anyone else see him?
