Barry.. Can we park down below by the collection shack?

We parked on the road at the entrance by the bridge, not much dirt and lots of room on the road to get by except for the guy who backed into th access road. No way the groomer could have been moved if needed.
We were unloading by 7:15 and nobody there and end of day about 10 trucks there, have fun there is lots of good snow.

grooming is done for the season. If you drive down past the shack you could park somewhere there. lots of gravel and mud if you park at the top. Couple of guys were parked and camped just past the shack. Trail was groomed sat morning but was starting to get rough at the end of the day. Wont be getting better now that the grooming has stopped. will be nasty by now im sure.

Up top still lots of snow. wind blown and some rocks showing around some peaks. You will have to look for goos snow farther back in the trees probably. It was fairly hard everywhere sat morning but was getting softer by the afternoon with the warm weather. We were glad we went saturday as I dont think its worth travelling to come back. its in melt mode now

Out ride the Easter weekend included Renshaw, Belle & Lucelle.
Renshaw Friday: fairly socked in with snow on and off all day. We found lots of pockets of 2' powder once it warmed for the day. Overall for the time of year conditions were excellent.
Belle Saturday: way less powder but again, for the time of season it was good. We were not disappointed.
Lucelle Sunday: found some powder in main areas, out boys dropped into butterfly and said it was awesome. Trail into butterfly was great.
Came home tired, stiff and very happy for our last ride of the season.

On friday we parked in parking lot.... Trail was groomed, but rough coming down. Another great time in mcbride, other than the dam speeding ticket just south of mcbride :( ...... Nice rcmp though and dropped the speed to lesser fine ....... No demerits because we're from alberta :) ....... Lucille had best conditions of the weekend. Renshaw snow still over roof of cabin!!! Belle was good too, and found lots of pow in the trees, burn, and lower meadows

At renshaw past the shack, is there enough room to get a truck and enclosed trailer turned around, or is it just accessible for truck&deck?
