Curious to know who the trout guys were? We have a cabin there and ride all the time. Locals? PM me if you don't want to be public with it.

Hasn't snowed in a month man,, snow sucks every where. I know some honey holes with a bit of pow, pretty much all in the trees. A lot of whoops, side hills, steep climbs & avy paths ext to get to them. Im thinking of trying Hall tomorrow.(Easy ride in) Havent been in there yet this season and the snow seems a little better to the south of Revy. I move slow in the Morning, so if you want to go for a rip with me I leave Revy around 9:30 or 10am. If ur just looking to go with your wife & friend that's cool too, south of Revy is best snow. Begbie was actually pretty good too,, not a safe place at all tho. Unless huge Avy exposure doesn't bother you...

Ordered mine today $139 list price.
Stickers $30 bucks.

Looks like you need the vent screen on the front Dan, hauling around half the mountain in the front. LOL!

The air box vent (flute) is under 20 bucks. Been there done that!
I think our side panels are $125 if I remenber what Mark was saying, not sure of the price of the decals.
Looks like some really cool weather for the rest of the week so not a bad time to do some wrenching.

When are you and alek planning on finishing the Eagle to Peaks run?

Alek is in Van,, but we'll be doin the run again very soon. Your Daughter said today you weren't allowed to come back to Revy any more tho....lol

Well me & Alek went back to Eagles to concur the mountain. Eagles into turtle, onto boulder back to the Peaks then drive back to eagles to get the truck. Wicked run, even found some pretty good snow on a tree'd slope that doesn't catch any sun light in a far back zone in Eagles Pass. Fawkin cold tho...lol

Leaving this cold a$$ country for 2 weeks on Saturday. It better snow before I head to Revy mid March, then again for the annual Easter trip.
The bottomless pow at New Years was amazing, but a long time has passed since some decent snowfall.
Need to try out the new Mountainhorse Snowbike

Revy hasn't had a decent snow fall since Jan 12th. Jan 13th was the deepest pow day of the season and its been going down hill ever since. So yea, you know the snow does suck, which kinda sucks for me too.... Jan 9th
