How's the snow pack there now.... Up to par or still below normal?

First pigs to trough on saturday. Don't think it'll be tracked out yet, only two of us and another deuce up there. Big thing is visibility, some open crevaces so if there is flat light, a bit scary. Even with a set up during the week, there will still be good riding on the weekend. Was balz deep

How is forester for beginners? Was thinking about taking the wife there on the 7 and 8

 

[pano-dude]

its perfect, big wide open meadows and not a lot of danger unless you look for it .

 

[Dustylane]

Perfect thanks, so next question is where is it from golden?

 

[medler]

these are the directions..........

straight west of radium at lights. follow across creek and up the hill to 4way intersection, if you have a big trailer turn right and follow west side road to dogleg lake staging. if deck or regular trailer keep heading west through intersection to forster fsr turn right and follow to upper staging.

So do i keep heading north towards revelstoke or do i travel on the highway towards silent pass and radium? do i keep going past the silent pass turnoff?

 

[medler]

Coming from golden , turn right (west) at the 4 way stop and follow the previous directions after that

If you are travelling from Calgary, take the Hwy 93 turnoff at Castle Mountain,to Radium. Don't go to Golden and then down to Forester, you'll end up doing at least an hour and a half driving more than you need to. If you are already going to be in Golden, then disregard.

holy christ man can you read a map or type go to radium into google maps??

Probably easier to stay at home if ur that retarded!

 

[pano-dude]

a bit harsh but people really need to be able to figure these things out on their own, getting info off a forum is ok but research is everything when going to new area.

Well panodude I couldn't agree more, there are so many avenues of good research out there to plan a trip.... The last place to look for directions is here IMO....., pretty much every snowmobile club has links to great maps and such for whatever area you are headed too.... One good benefit of forums like these are the ability to possibly hook up with like minded riders and explore new areas, and at hopefully at the end of the day you come away some knowledge of the area and a great day of riding!!

Why beat around the bush. Easier to get to the point.
