Sherm that pic wasn't even from the sicamous area, it doesn't belong in this thread! Lol. Well we decided to do some exploring today because the snows not the greatest but the skies were blue. Made it all the way from hunters range to the kingfisher area, dropped down a nasty mountain in the process, found the easier way out after we got to the bottom. Then we went over to Mortan's lake on the owlshead side. Found some nice untouched areas and put on 100kms. Fuel was low when we got back to the truck, Marked it all on the gps so it will be easier next time. We need more snow but the forecast isn't looking good.

Went for a little ride to Hunters today, but on the way back to the tuck I lost a side panel somewhere on the trail (exhaust side). We pretty much stuck to the groomed trail other than a few blips off to the side in the deeper snow. If anyone comes across it and wants to return it (pm me), that would be great. It's a grey and lime Polaris panel.
Thanks
It was pretty quiet up there today, snow was ok in the open but lots of untracked and deeper in the trees.

I have no idea how it came off and I didn't see it or hear it .....
I know it was on when we left the cabin (because there is a picture), but when we got to the truck it was gone????
It makes no sense and I can't even blame anyone else.

Coming from Sicamous the turnoff is just past that miniature kids farm thingy, just past the bridge, same road as before but different! There's a big sign there where you turn, its the shorter route, goes straight up the hill into the pit, before the road was a good 3/4km past the bridge, some issues then with the land owner....
