So back to troys pics.... are you allowed to camp in the staging areas?

if so the camper might as well go back on the truck.....:d
Curtis mentioned in the updates thread that it was cool, as long as you buy your trail passes.

Not even a matter of the money for the rooms... be really cool to wake up and be there. Sit around the fire in the evening with some beverages, hot chilli and toasted buns for supper done on the camper stove and retire to the toasty warm camper for the night... equiped with bathroom and running water, I've already looked into swapping out my tanks for insulated...
Camping AND sledding two of my favorite things....



When you got a camper life is good ........... I soooo wish I had a pic of these guys though. They gave hillbillies a bad name lol. I think the cabin you rented in Vale has a fire pit. Now thats camping!! Fire and a log cabin. :beer::d:beer:

That reminds me I wanna call a couple of the hotels and see if they will allow use of recreational facilities (pool, hot tub ect..) for a fee.

you nailed it, if a person is the kind that requires a shower or soak in a hot tub after every ride, it's not for them. get back from the ride, mix up your favourite "end of day" refreshment, cook up some grub and chillax around the fire! if you do decide to try it out, let me know...mebbe I'll join ya out there with my riggin' :beer:

just try to make it back into the camper before this point in time....needed one of those "i've fallen and can't get up!" deals....

Re: 2010 / 2011 Valemount Updates

So good weekend after all was said and done even with a overnighter on the highway. Rode Allan both Saturday and Sunday with great snow. On a negative note to the a$$holes out there, where should I mail this Kokanee beer can? Able to bring it in full but can't carry it out empty? Get a life and stay home if you can't carry out an empty can.
