Heard last night that Corbin road was PLOWED yesterday. sledders were on the way out yesterday and had 6kms of dirt to ride on. (probably to the barnes lake turnoff). Don't think that FSA has the sled road built either.
I’d be pretty pizzed if there was no warning or sign stating that was gonna happen. I’m sure the coal or logging boys had a good laugh when they were doing thatHeard last night that Corbin road was PLOWED yesterday. sledders were on the way out yesterday and had 6kms of dirt to ride on.

I was just telling someone the other day in the mid 90’s the ole 670 summit be out for gas from the meter shack to wranglers in November busting a trail in cause the snow was so deep.
