We got the eagles cabin half full of wood until a BRP failure halted our progress. Staging was ok but entertaining trail was good as well.

the chainsaws were purring but the groomer busted a hose. It must have hit a stump while backing up a skiddplate took a beating so it hit fairly hard. A lot of white scenery up there yet.

Decks/pickups/2place parking at 4.25km Owlhead. Big trailers at 2.5. Trail is a beauty, thanks Sled Sicamous!... parking will be at 6.5km before long... a couple snowbikes and 7 sleds went up from what I could see from the tracks... Also a couple cougars walkin on the trail closer to Owl cabin, they split off before and then we picked the track up again on the way down and across Video Bowl. But not before we went a smashed up Eco a bunch! Good day with Wild Bill and Rightsideup.

lottsa of new snow up top today at blue visibility in the open was not great. The heavy snow gave the sleds a good work out. we staged at 1.5 k at blue. I think the rain knocked off a km of low level coverage. the ckmp trucks and trailers had no issues getting to that lot. thanks for the ride Marshall at ckmp and gord with sledsicamous,

So - headed out to up from owls main parking lot - alot of 4place trailers parked at 2k parking lot - we drove to 4.5 k with deck - trail was in decent shape - rained abit on way up and turned to snow by about 12k - snow was quit heavy and soft ! We turned of main trail and headed into meadows to find better snow but still pretty soft ! proceeded back toward Blue - played in cut blocks to find deeper snow - snow still heavy but when u stepped of sled was over my knees ! headed up shortcut to Blue cabin played in meadows and then dropped don into lower meadows west of cabin to find some very deep heavy snow ! Few stucks , visibility was an issue due to low light conditions - made our way through meadows made large circle and headed back out ! Was snowing of and on all day ! Shes still winter up there !!
