Rode up to blue lake from the Burner today. In a rzr. 6” tops up there. Snow line is fairly low. Not enough snow for a road ride yet.

Where can you buy the elusive pass. Shops in town don't have them and online you can't get secondary pass.

It is a quandary isn't it. I tried several times in Salmon Arm to no avail. Then tried Silk Start to no avail also. I passed my forms to Gord at the last meeting. Seems to me, there needs to be some house cleaning done and reorganization. Has anybody noticed that there is no "contact" information on the Sled Sicamous web site? What is the reason behind that?

Cut down on people complaining about the bumpy trail after 300 braapers go up when it’s -2 lol.

Anybody from SA or Sic going to sledshow in Edm? Looking for a nice person to bring back three crates of parts from catmando(o).
Actually it's just a windshield bag...

I was planning on it (haven't missed one in many years) but have changed my mind. Sorry.

If you can get it to Calgary, I have a son coming out before the end of the month.

I spoke with Gord today regarding the availability of Season Passes. Due to some printing delays, the club is late getting the passes out to our vendors. They should be out by the end of the week and I will confirm here when they are.

Check out www.sledsicamous.com on the "Join" page for all of the rates and early bird deadline (Nov. 12). There is also a contact email on the page.

Passes will also be available at the Sled Sicamous booth at the Edmonton Snowmobile show this weekend.

Thanks. I just want to buy in town. Email I got from cub said you can not buy secondary pass on line and I want to do it before leaving town on vacation next week.

Spoke again with Gord today regarding Eagle Valley season passes. He was not able to get the passes out to the local vendors before heading to the Edmonton Show. He will get them out once he is back in town on Tuesday.

A guy goes away for a season and everythings dead! I don't recall the lack of posts this time of year in previous times, but then my memory isn't that **** hot either! Anyways, if you wanted to sled up at Blue you could, if you wanted to take out an A-Arm or something like that. I did a quad ride up there today, nice and sunny and yes, there is enough snow once you get past 18km to ride on the road, but thats about it! I did take the turn off to go to Blue from the main road, 100' up I had to turn out, something I'm not really accustomed to, a tactic Billdozer is more used to. (have to get him riled up somehow!!) There was probably a foot of snow at sometime in the not to distant past but its more like 8-10" now. Someone else had ventured up to 20km in their truck and dumped off what appeared to be a side by side and did some exploring. I also managed to get in through the backtrail to Cummings Lk, there are still a couple of very big sewer holes along that trail, but they are nicely marked now thanks to Mr. Honda. Cummings still has open water showing. I never thought I'd get the quad covered in black gold this time of the year. That was about it, nice and sunny up top, probably -2/3 C, the road is crappy as usual where there was no snow. There are a couple of ugly spots on the road that Unc Gord might want to look at as far as safety. At 15km there are boulders on the road from that slide area, and as I sat there you could actually see the mud slowly moving downhill, along with some smaller rocks rolling down. At 10km there is a quad size boulder on the Caribou Lk road that rolled down from the slide area and at 7 km there are some huge nuggets just waiting to careen down on some unaware passerby. The creeks are running well and due to the amount of rainfall we've had there could be some major problems along that road, just saying. Thats all I got!! Sherm

Saw some pics from the other side of the valley that looked a bit better. Another week or so it looks like til we go for a braille ride.
