Snow is dam good but it’s dam cold I have never seen the town go from being so full that there was no parking at the hotels to maybe 3 groups left

Ya it’s shaping up to be a good weekend coming up. Should be minimal riders during the week and snow almost every day leading up.

Rode holy grail and salmon last Thursday and Friday. Visibility was crap, snow was awesome in the tees. Poured rain coming down the trail Friday evening. Was still raining when we left in the morning. Not sure how the conditions are now but best be careful especially going into holy grail/big blue as there will be a slippery new snow layer over the old. Watch for tree wells and open holes.

Did the two big faces (left face of the waterfall and right drainage) slide so you can safely get into Holy Grail?

 

[wkotelko]

Yes they had slid already. looked very recent.

Was into Salmon yesterday. Snow was decent still lots of fresh to be found. Visibility was not
the greatest. The single lane trail in was very icy! We just barely made it up. The ride down was luge run coming down. Be careful keep your distance between the sleds or it will be carnage! I am not sure if the is another way to go around it.

Now is as good a time as any to post my yearly request that the local club find a way to build an actual access path into Salmon. I think it would be worth the effort.

Usually a good show. Seen alot of folks give up. Kinda prefer it this way

Hate to see someone get hurt.

I wonder if the provincial government isnt allowing them to make a trail up there?? Or something like that?

Or not and keep the number of riders down

Maybe a few people could shovel the sides down onto that part of the trail on the way out. So it sets up overnight. Might help.

The salmon trail is like when you were a kid and your dad said you can ride the sled if you can pull start it...
