My sled broke down in renshaw at bottom of the cornus,not getting it for a couple weeks just gonna leave it and try in get it out before getting a heli. If you come by it would appreciate if you wipe the snow off. If anyone needs a heli in the next 3 weeks I'll go half with you!

there was a guy a couple years ago that used a block and tackle, rope setup with 2 sleds. Cost my buddy like 600 to get him to yank a dead m8 over the saddle

Two weeks from now it could be under a great deal of snow. I have seen it snow 4' over night up there.

Yup, it ain't spring time. In two week's that sled will be buried and if you can find it the snow will be so deep it won't be going no where.

Fix it on the hill or heli out, thats the cost of the sport at times.

As lots mentioned, I would not leave it up there for long especially this time of year.
There are locals that will go up and rescue it alot cheaper than a chopper.
Try adrenaline rentals in mcbride.

What's wrong with it and what is it?

Sorry to say but two weeks from now it could be stripped also.
Wouldn't be the first time.
More likely to get buried by big dump.
Contact locals is the best.
bbtoys can likely get you the right local to help.
PM him.
Or as mentioned adrenaline tours.

Flagging tape from the bars to as high as you can climb up the nearest tree!

We had a similar problem at Renshaw a few years back. Sled broke down late on a Sunday. We all had to work on Monday. So we left it. Called the insurance company what would happen if it got stripped down while it sat there and they said they wouldn’t cover it as it was abandoned. Needless to say we went back as soon as possible to get it out. Just a heads up but you need to get that sled ASAP.
