Also bringing up 4 place enclosed trailer and wondering where parking is going to be

From what I saw, you can park in either lot. Both will have gravel/dirt until you get to the snow. When we were there, it wasn't busy on the first day (only 9 vehicles in the lot closest to the kiosk) and we used the "groomer trail/road" to load. That lot was very wet and muddy. The top lot by the Visitor Center was dry and we used that on the second day. Parked close and used the "groomer trail/road" right down to the kiosk. We were quick and considerate of any action around the Visitor Center and moved the trucks out of the way as soon as we unloaded.

Whether we did the right thing or not, I don't know. Nobody complained and I don't think we interfered with operations. Saying that, there were only 4 trucks in the upper lot so not a big problem.

Thanks. Hopefully it cools a bit so the rain turns to snow

That is fine what you did.
We have been backing trailers and decks to the groomer road and unloading and loading in the back lot by the pay booth.

Use the bank etc. No one wants to ride dirt.

Snow has set up lots....Spring riding. Bottom trail will hopld for awhile yet.
Depends also when the club decides to plow it off to the 3km parking lot.

Normally Frisby is good trail from the lot for a longer period of time.

Any one coming this weekend may be in for a treat to one last storm system starting Thursday....

I your coming, get up there early for the POW snow because usually by noonish she turns to smashed potatoes..

Yeah what we saw Thursday how fast it was deteriorating and the warm temps and sun forecasted I didn't figure it would last to this coming weekend. Great snow up top but just to warm a winter in a lot of places this year.

How big of a trailer can you pull up to kilometre 3?
