A Season with LILDUKE

[lilduke]

Sorry I didn't know it was a huge secret. When you post pictures showing the cut blocks above Hospital Creek with the Ski Hill in the background you're not exactly doing a lot to keep it under wraps. Any monkey with google earth can log on and follow the drainages.

You know my bad, its not my spot,, it Adams and his crew, I ride revy,, I was trying to keep his spot kinda on the down low as asked, but thanks anyways dick head,,, guess I shoulnt post this stuff.... Sorry Shadam.

 

[Chump]

Great pics! Looks like an awesome area to play in!

 

[lilduke]

Oh ps that's what they did,, googled earthed, followed drainages and took two weeks to build the trail in so they'd have a fun place to snow board..... Most people cant be bothered to spend that kinda effort to get into some where and I was just trying to respect that effort. I fawked that up I guess.....

I wouldn't stress about it Dan, its the problem with the internet and all the information out there now. People have been riding this area for years, maybe even me and a few other forum members...LOL ....its not untouched virgin terrain, sorry....there was even a thread on here about 4 yrs ago with almost identical pics.

Ouch guess I hurted your feelers so bad you had to resort to name calling. Truly sorry I was just pointing out the obvious it's not exactly a secret. Glenogle was listed on the Snowmobile Club's website for years as a riding area!

As Modman mentioned I would highly doubt there is any virgin territory within 20 miles of town that isn't park (even then I'm sure it's seen a track or two in it's day).

Good on Shadam and his crew for putting the trail in as you are correct it is a lot of work to get a trail in on a haggard old logging road and up through the trees (or creek) into the alpine. But to think they are the only users is naive.

Sorry about the name calling, un called for I apologise . Sure people have rode there in the past. No one else this season has used it and definatly nobody would be using it if they didn't build the trail in. I was just trying to post some pics, not give away there stash spot.....

In Revy,,, snow kinda sucks tho,,, might go back to Golden

I got another drainage I want to open up. logging road goes upto 1700m so thats close enough for me. the creek doesn't have trees so travel should be easier than bush-wacking. about 17km from truck then maybe 5km up to the switch back creek crossing then the fun starts ...
I was thinking an afternoon mission for a few hours back about dark.
just need a few more crazies on good sleds, as it sucks to get unstuck in creek by myslef.

I bet I know where this one is as your description is very similar to one we tried 2 yrs ago, and it was blocked last year by huge avy debris at the very bottom. PM me if you want to compare notes.

Don't quit posting pics! There's nothing else interesting to read on this site right now. Can only read so much crap about the freak and who's turbo is the best....

 

[lilduke]

Well I was kinda having a bad day,, X wife fawkin with me and blah blah blah, so I headed into the fog to quietly reflect on things. Well ran into Mark & he had a crew from Washington and they were going to do the back trail into Turtle,, Sounded like fun, so I tagged along,,, Then they put me to work tuggin on skies...lol The Trail was a lil beyond a couple of the Americans skillz so Fawkin gong show, but fun and we had RAVE beats pumpin while we dug out buddies sled, so that made thing better! Oh and no snow in Revy BTW....lol

Yea we mader,,, When someone asks you to keep a spot on the D-low you try too.... I failed miserably... what ev...

 

[kimrick]

Ah dont worry about Chris. He has ridden all the areas.
He was just stating a point. If you post it, some has probably been there also.
Kinda like the the avalanche pictures from differnt years that looked all most identical (Kinda bizzare).
Not much on the D-Low when tah ride.
It is more like.....DO WE HAVE THE BALLS OR TIME OR TRY AND GET IN THERE!!!!!!!!!!!
Kinda like going the back way into Turtle.....
Conditions are perfect right now for doing this, snow is set.
Now that you have been there, would you try it with a bottomless base in deep pow?

 

[E-Zmoke]

Looks like the guy on the orange pro was having a really bad day lol great pics
