Thats what I hear. You have friends who keep me in the loop. Lol. I hope you have lots of footage?

Hahahaha……..I left the Contour on and have 50 minutes of solid riding but I don't think there will be much of that 50 minutes that would be video footage. We were on Brohm ridge on Wednesday and it looked like a groomer had gone over the whole thing. There was some fresh in the steep trees but it was way too steep for our talent.

Video is in the works…….

I will call a spade a spade……the snow is rode out and well settled. There is some untracked in the trees if one knows where to go. Crusts, hoar, and facets have been forming.

It was this time last year (just as MMV started), that it warmed up and started to snow and we never looked back……….maybe another talking or dancing to the SnowGods is in order…….hahahahaha

I rode Saturday, and know the area well and yes we did find some fresh in the trees but one has to know where to go.. Would I drive 9 hours from sasky, likely not. Let it snow let it snow let it snow.

There has been no new snow. The snow that is there/here is hard and well packed. It has settled considerably. The trail to the Rolling Hills cabin is hard and fast though; baby butt smooth! The extra 7 km to the Wrangler's not in as good shape as the SnowCat was acting up again last night.

As sc800 says, let it snow, let it snow……….and any time soon will be just fine thank you!

Just rode last 4 days in fernie. Snow getting quite firm. Found some fresh everyday. Snow much better down low in trees (below 6000').

We got a few inches with some wind, there might be some blown in areas. Forecast is calling for some more over the next couple of days, and we are still finding lots of good riding....

Thanks again ANDY, the snow was epic on sunday, deep, soft and no tracks, you could not have found a better spot to take us out only need a little more blue bird day
well worth the 9hr drive
