Made it around the lake. Logging road beers now. Currently 6c and rainy in St Ives could be hope for some high elevation snow.

expectations ar low.... Ya they would have to be but if you have been sitting all winter waiting it might be ok lol turbos are not needed though

Got a brand new ditch banger. Hardly used it this year. Xrs backcountry. 3 days. 417km this year. Doesn’t sound good in Alberta. Loading up my turbo in the morning. Heading to Revelstoke.

You should be shining up the Harley and getting ready for a rip, better odds to ride that soon.

True story Ron. Short sledding season for sure. ! Glad to see you got out last weekend.

It’s been pouring rain in Seymour Arm for the last 3 hours and only 4c. Not sure what is happening in Revy but if it keeps this up for another 12 hrs or more it could almost be enough for a full reset.

Ski hill got a little skiff

 

[Lem Lamb]

And drive the Harley Davidson up the mountain...

We were at the North Shueswap one year and sled season was done,,, I wasn't about too give up on the season since i needed too max out my 200 days sledding...

Whaaaam,,, 4 ft of Sugar snow,,, next day was 2 ft on top of the 4 ft of hard pack bellow... extended the season for another 45 days...
Sparatic snow squalls kept rolling threw...

205 days the next year in pizz poor conditions...

Rocks are free and skis are cheap,,, favk the track,,, they make new ones everyday...

Sled season ends when its more work then its worth or a person is a brave hart and stays at it...

Ones choosing of course...

Good times no matter what...

Until you have to tow a dead sled across sand/gravel. That’s where the fun ends!!

Worse yet is trying to tow a snow bike...

 

[Clode]

Watching those guys in the muddy parking lots and riding gravel makes me cringe

 

[drew562]

Pouring rain in town tonight

 

[niner]

Gnome has 4” fresh this morning. Better than nothing.

 

[snoflake]

Bet there will be some decent riding today and tomorrow.

 

[drew562]

Hard icy snow covered in 10” of fresh. Was decent. Pockets of pow and sun.

 

[lilduke]

That was a long closure this year, especially considering how little snow there was...

 

[Jorgy]

It looked pretty good yesterday from the videos I saw.

 

[lilduke]

Buddies had a good day up at frisby

 

[greenthumb]

This was a couple days ago. A footish of fresh but not nearly as good as last week. There was a melt freeze on the weekend that you could feel.

Anyone know how far up boulder they are parking these days?

 

[Jorg Jorgenson]

We Drove down to revy for the day on Saturday, went up Bezanson and parked at the 6km(ish) switchback, before Veideman. Only had a few short patches of gravel before we hit full coverage.

Went back way into Turtle, creeks are still pass-able, ended up at Monster Bowl then came back to the chutes.

Back down the backside and up into boulder where we headed to Turbo Hill and spent a little time there. Probed 245cms and was pleasantly surprised how the snow was holding out up top. Finished the day at the bullpens.

Managed to hit 3 zones by 1:30pm.

Only saw one other group in boulder.
