Hey Patti & RobinI am still kicking my azz for not doing my usual 2 week bashing on my body for the holiday season!!!!I wanted too but was worried about only having 2 sleds and the landmines so I backed out earlySilly me, the energy I spend kicking my A.. would have been much better spent riding my A.. off!!!!!Well hopefully I can make up for it soonIt is always a BLAST, ESPECIALLY WITH ROBIN
PS: has he tried the new cats yet? or did he get an out of season kitty?Can't wait to be in my mountain home ASAP
See you soon

Hey Guys, Thought I would post this here, I left my helmet on the back of my truck at the Big Blue/ Holy Grail Parking Lot (June Springs Road.) I am sure it fell off there, when I noticed I went back but someone had picked it up. If you have it and see this can you please contact me. It is a white Klim F4..... This was Dec 28th when I lost it.

That was an awesome poke up into Big Blue! There was no new snow when I left on the day of the 1st.

 

[got snow?]

Does anyone know how the conditions are right now in blue river?

Rode to the sort of Y junction between Holy Grail and Big Blue, it all needs snow desperately, like another 5' of snow. One creek open about 20' across and 1' deep, couple rocks to avoid. Other then that lots of trenched out hard packed climbs.

I'm not planning on going back to Blue River until there is significantly more snow.

That was my fault, I was the last one up and got screwed up and broke my limiter straps. Couldn't climb up anything after that.

We rode salmon on the 3rd. It was unreal. So much untouched. A good amount of powder. Great climbs. Trail is a bit sketchy. Some people need to learn how to run the throttle lol. Some big ole trenches. Other then that its been a great couple days. Not saying where we went today but it was awesome

So you made it up the trail...The riding doesn't even start until you get to the "Y". We were in there on Dec 29th first tracks into the grail and the snow was over the handlebars...only complaint I had is we ran out of daylight.
