Hows the T-Motion working?

Hows the T-Motion working?

I don't know if it is the t-Motion or the flex track but something is working just fine. The proof is the ease in which my wife can carve the meadows. She is ecstatic!

Went to some secret meadows today but they were all rain crusted and not fun at all. The snow levels vary quite a bit this year and particularly from drainage to drainage.

Just a little hectic out here Tyler and as much as I like to sell the area, I don't want everyone to think this is the area for them as it is very avy prone and technical.

A lot of easy places to ride but they have no snow at the present. So I'm being cautious.

PS and yes, I realize that you have ridden here quite a bit so you would know about the Crossing Creek trail whereas many wouldn't.

Rain Crust is not a phrase I like to hear... Hopefully you guys get a really good dump of snow soon and it bonds thru that crust!

It was snowing downtown briefly this morning, was looking real good, but then it turned to rain! Not a nice day. Hopefully Doug has been out playing today and he will tell us it was dumping up top. The only thing is the trail at the bottom must be getting bare.

 

[ferniesnow]

Conditions are the same as they were last week. Snow up top is great, the trail to 4500' is skinny, and the rocks at the bottom are a pain.

I was in 7-8' of snow today. I couldn't believe how deep I sank…..now that isn't all over, it was just a place in the trees!

Great day around Mear Lake today. Rode a 2013 XM163 and wow what a machine. I haven't ridden much in the last 2winters and today felt like I had been riding all season ! I REALLY need a second job !!
great riding with Bryan, Tyler, Mark, Dylan , and Billy.

Any updates from this weekend ?

Working on a video while I type. should have it up tomorrow.

Dug a pit and there was 5' of well consolidated snow in the trees with no wind blown deposits. November crust is about 14" or 34 cm off the ground. It is a great base and as good as it is, it will just get better.

Still lots of landmines above Mear Lake but it is fun it one is careful and sort of knows where to go….
