Was decent day today ! Had full crew today ! Tex , eagle pass Doo, right side up , Scott , Rob and myself ! Headed toward Blue and then got of trail around the 18km marker and played in the Meadows abit ! Creeks were still pretty deep and not cross able - might been able to but didn't wanna go swimming ! Headed back on trail and got to short cut up to blue cabin and played in the open area's - decent snow , was about 10 inches of fresh and really good base ! Made few shoot runs here and there with few stucks here and there ! Unfortunately don't have any pics of the stucks -- so guess they didn't happen ! Lol . Made it back to cabin eventually and then headed back down ! Trail was really great , except for the last few km , do to lack of snow ! Was snowing all day up top !

Rode Hunters today, snowing hard all day enough that we some what got lost trying to find our original tracks out of creeks and trees. Didn't even try going up to Gordon/Sidney as vis was awful. Snow turned to rain around the 10km mark. If it keep dumping like it is overnight tomorrow could be a foot of fresh on top of about 12-14 inches of fresh right now. Havent ridden hunters in years and I forgot how much I love that stove, cabin was toasty warm today.

Update: Rode Owlhead and blue today. Groomer went up last night and there was about 18'' covering the trail. Broke into blue and found about 24-28 inches of fresh from last nights storm. Epic doesn't even begin to describe today.

Still unloading at parking lot - ground still snow / ice covered - unfortunately the trail up to about 2.5 km is not the greatest - dirt showing in alot of spots - the first 1km is really bad !
