Coquihalla Area

[HighMark Adventures]

Just letting people know that guys were up at Julliette(spelling) on Sunday and it was like ice. It warmed up then froze and you could not break through the crust. On Sunday there were a few inches of fresh snow on top of it and it has been snowing here for the last few days. With that super hard crust layer with all the new snow on top of it it will slide so be careful out there.

Thanks for the heads up, I was curious what was going on up there with the wacky weather in the Valley.

Ya if you do head up up there be careful man. That ice layer will be dangerous with all this new snow on top of it. When my buddies were up there on Sunday there was like 6 inches of fresh on it and it might as well have been 6 inches on pure ice. They said it was scary because you would try to climb something and literally spin out.

Went to the top of Tynne on Sat. Snow was good from about halfway up. Top was nasty with drifts.

The Coq is getting a dump as we speak...a couple more weeks and we should be good to go!

 

[ktownsumx]

Which side of the Coq do you ride on? or is it both sides, my buddy and I are looking to hit this area this year, anybody around for tour guides? Thanks

 

[bones01]

both sides, the west side is harder to find the spots and you need somone to show you through the trees etc. to some spots. East side is the organized side with trail and grooming and cabins. Look up COQ SNOWMOBILING they have a trail map. may i recomend 10K.

Coming from Kelowna if you unload at Tulameen you can access the riding areas on the east side of the highway. Way less driving!

I see the coq got some more snow the last couple nights...anyone try a road ride up there or any updates from up there?

 

[mtm]

Seriously thinking about a road ride this weekend. I need to get my Bd dialed before the real riding starts. Anyone interested?

coq snow web site says there is 20 cm on the pipeline and 50 cm up top...lots of rain in the forecast for hope so it should add up over the next couple days and the next week. let us know if you hit it up for a ride, if not see you next weekend!

Yup road ride yesterday, awesome getting back out. Enough snow to mess around on the pipline. Went to the cabin and a few Km. towards 10k just playing with the new sled. A few hours of fun. It's here, next week should be good.

Bottom of Super Bowl 5900 feet, 1 foot of base with 3.5 feet of powder on top, well worth the trip, next weekend the area should be cherry.

Is that Dave hiding in the back? Looks like a blast, couple more storms and should be good, how often you guys ride this area? i want to try it out, on your way from Princeton do you go by tullameen? its way quicker for me coming from kelowna just take the back road from aspen grove, could meet you guys there some time, cheers

 

[Braap]

Yes thats Dave hiding in the back, we often ride from Tulameen, seems to be lots of fresh powder on either side of the valley, most of the time we can go out and not run into any other sledders, nothing but fresh pow.
