Any word on access conditions? We are heading up next weekend. Trying to figure out if access from parking lot will be possible or not.

Was up Finn creek this weekend and the FSR is still plowed up past the salmon turn off. Hasn’t been plowed recently so the new snow is building up good on the trails. No grooming up fin creek as of yet as far as I know. Our group tried to get into salmon and the trail was not cut in yet since the new snow so we turned around or we’d probably still be digging ourselves out. We talked to a couple turbo guys in the hotel that said they were going to try salmon on Sunday so there might be a trail broke in there by now. Rode groundhog east Friday Saturday and had over the headlights pow both days. Starting to get tracked but still lots of fresh to be found. Rode redsands on Sunday and it had a bit less snow but still great riding conditions. Could use another dump to cover the last little bit of stumps. Picture of salmon trail where we turned around.

Anyone make it into holy grail yet?

Not sure if you're being serious or not, if you are asking a serious question, you are talking about an imaginary area that those of us that have been privileged enough to find would prefer you never speak of again, this is a black zone that should never be mentioned on snow and mud. You either have no idea where this area is and how we access it, or maybe you should sell your sled today because your ignorance is what gets people killed in the back country I can't tell. It hasn't been near cold enough to freeze the creek nor has there been enough total accumulation to bring the two slides down that we depend on to get in there, and rely on to be slid to avoid certain death. If you're joking then I truly appreciate your satire, carry on.

The name says it all for this area. If you have to ask if it’s been broke yet you probably shouldn’t be riding it. So many other safer areas to ride this time of season.

Are you kidding me asking a simple question to see if any has made it in since I haven’t been to blue yet this year. I know it’s early to be getting in there but with the resent dumps of snow I thought I would ask if there was enough snow in the lower elevation to make it and for not talking about it in snow and mud to “keep it a secret” is bull **** they groom the trail part of it lol
