Just spent a week in town, we found places with 3'-4' of fresh snow. Last day we rode was Friday and it was snowing and blowing then. If you get adventurous the good stuff can be found. BE CAREFUL AVALANCHE RISK IS RISING.

How's the snow there?

Rode Bell Weds and Renshaw Thurs & Friday. Had some bad luck with the sled on weds (broken secondary) and thurs (blew an o-ring gasket on the head) "007sevens" thanks again for the antifreeze! I made it down to km 17 on the Renshaw trail then the plastic y pipe on the engine cooling system started leaking like a sieve. Just wasn't my day! LOL

Friday rented a sled off Glen at Spindrift and had an awesome day, Love the new Proclimb chassis! Snow was wicked and wish I could be there when the sun comes out, that will be an Epic day! A huge thanks to Barry and Judy from Mountainhaven B&B for another awesome visit, and a huge shout out to Glen from Spindrift for all your help :beer:

Sorry for the crappy pics from Thursday, you can add another 18" of snow easily to the amount shown in the photos! Ride safe!

Thanks Glen. I'll be there Wednesday night. Maybe we can hook up for a ride before I head home on Sunday. You can show me at least one of those secret spots with all the powder you have.

Rode Lucille on Friday - foot of fresh, then Renshaw Saturday and Sunday, 2 - 3 feet of fresh, which made for perfect days!!!! It was my first time and I will never forget the great time it was, and McBride was a very inviting town with great people! The trails were perfectly groomed and there was miles of untouched snow, you just had to go and find it!

I'm looking for someone or a group to ride with between the 15 and 21 of march, I'm an average rider and don't take unnecessary chances. I ride an 07 summit 151, if anyone's interested let me know.
