Eagle Valley / Sicamous Updates 2018 - 2019

[snowcannon]

Rode Eagles today with Lund and his wife. Other than the absence of blue skies, it was an excellent day. Found enough fresh powder to play in. Especially the second, more westerly lake along the gas drop trail. Had the most fresh snow of the whole area. We stopped there on the way in. Not a single track. Came back later and trashed it. Just as we finished, a large group popped in. Sorry guys, too late Made our way to Piper Lake and back again. Trail in and out was awesome. Thank you Mr. Groomer!

Blue Lake 5c today, much warmer than yesterdays -3c at Owlhead, groomed trail was mint once again, staged at the bottom Malakwa side, probed 2.4m in back meadows where we always check, snow still good but locks up quick ...like when I planted myself beside a stump down off Cummins Lake this morning haha ...mid week riders club rocks

With the snow melting found some old gear that was buried under the snow not too far from owls staging.
I’m sure whoever lost it gave up looking long ago but thought I’d post on here anyway.
If you lost a pair of goggles let me know what brand and colour and I’ll be happy to get them back to you.

Buddy lost his goggles on Saturday at Owlhead close to staging area. Had an incident that blew his knee out and we hauled him and his equipment home. He realized his goggles were missing and I went back to look but couldn't find. I don't know the brand. They had heated lenses with a black battery pack on strap.

Where are guys staging from at eagles / where does the snow line start on the trail? We've been there some years mid-March where we drove up to 9km and some years only 1km

How is snow up eagle pass?

Saw a video from the weekend at the cabin, snow looked low compared to years past. Close to half way down the staircase maybe?

 

[canadaair]

I think that is almost everywhere in the mountains this year. Just need to be in right place at right time after the right storm

 

[tex78]

First time in 5 years to leave sicamous to snow hunt
