So who got into it with the "farmer" yesterday at Blue Lake staging area? Heard the cops had to attend. Lol

Some guys went riping by on sleds and scared his cattle and they ran through a fence into another field. He’s actually super nice and let us park our unit on his property.

Again?

How many times over the years has this happened and likely those at fault don’t care because they only ride there once a year.

Those guys sound like douchebags. Every year at Christmas break a few show up.

I don't see the humour in this having cops attend.......

My bad..It's not funny. Some history with the farmer if it is the same guy. Cops have had to visit him on more than one occasion for his confrontations with sledders. One reason I don't bother staging there.

Fair enough I know who you mean truth is probably in the middle :)

Rode Queest today, first time for everyone in our group except for one and ended up in some areas pretty far off the beaten path and there was still lots of tracks but rode waste deep untouched when we ventured into the trees! The trail on the other hand was nothing but bumps, worked up more of a sweat on the trail than I did riding all day!

Rode hunters range yesterday, apparently over 170+ riders checked in... Took the fun way up and the trail was smooth, took the groomed trail down and she was pretty rough.. Currently 6" of fresh snow at the house in Kelowna.

Rode blue again today and it had a wicked amount of snow! Talked with a guy that rode owl and it was also really good! The trail was great! Think we might go there 1 more day

Just got back from Sicamous. Still lots in Blue Lake as it was pretty cold and snowed every day. Cabin was full all day I would guess as it was when we headed into the back and when we came out. Owlshead was a little more beaten. We rode Queest yesterday and there was great snow all over the place in there but the trail was brutal.

Quest doesn't get ridden much but has good snow and sweet terrain. If more rode it they would groom more

Ya, queest has low numbers persay, and takes 75 to groom


But the dude bringing guys up the mid Way back way every day makes 5-10 more riders everyday that aren't accounted for
