Did they not have two bridges crossing this river last year?

It's a mean one, I have never seen that frozen or filled in.


I've never seen it filled in either. Guys always find a way to make it across to get to a good riding area so I'm sure something will be figured out if they pull the bridge but that one won't fill in naturally

Was out there today as well. Although snow was pretty good, don’t get to horny over that picture. Wind storm come through and the ridge top is barren for sure. Wind loaded slopes and handlebar deep easily. The hard layer underneath is really obvious. Gatta watch the hazards still. Good first ride for me as well. There will be deep days to come!

Will take back what I said about deepest day of the year yesterday. It snowed another 20cm last night and we probed 120cms of fresh on the rain crust around 6400feet today in frisby. 190cm total. Here’s the only pic we got from today

Gotta be some slides happening on the rain crust. No?

Once the snow starts to consolidate on top of the crust layer, unless it bonds to it I would assume so. Av Canada said give the snow a few days to settle but I would image rating goes up over next few days looking at the forecast. No need to be in danger areas at this point. Wind loaded areas had minor sloughing both days.
