Glen...that wasn't me that blew past you on the trail last week as I haven't been out. In fact, just sold my pair of 2 strokes last week and I'm now looking at new sleds again.

Have fun out there over the holidays as it looks like snow is falling already. Maybe a good 12+ inches by tomorrow. :)

We need a update on the 940 road conditions and trail update

Nice cold temps and a boatload of white stuff should be good to go now ?

Got out for a short ride today. I was only able to do the North trails with my little on board before she got chilly. Road in from Longview was bad coming in with drifting and worse going out but I did see a plow so hopefully that is fixed. Unfortunately that same wind was taking a lot of the new snow off the exposed sections. Stuff sheltered in the trees was ok. Randall continued on to the south end after we went to the truck so will have to see what he found done there. I wouldn't bother taking the drag on the north section until we get another dump.

Gates are closed. They didn't get the snow that Calgary got. Maybe 1 inch or two at etherigton. I don't think I would worry about dragging. Trails are pretty packed. We hit Fording. Least amount of Snow on trails and back there that I have seen. Probed 70 cm. Area needs snow bad

How deep is the Baril Creek? We dragged till that creek. Something needs to be put into that creek to help freeze it up. Have you figured out the reroute?
