Golden and Area Conditions 2023-2024

[Jorg Jorgenson]

Looks like it's time to create a new 2023/24 Golden Thread (sorry if I'm stepping on the toes of the usual suspects who do this..). Tracks up at Quartz Creek. Anyone from the site??

Hoping to come visit December 8, let’s hope the snow keeps dumpin

We were converting bikes from dirt to snow last weekend.
Hopefully this weekend we will go to quartz for a shake down ride.
I'll report back here.

Not saying there was a ride at Gorman but mayby. Over 10” past second parking lot. 6” bout 5km up the trail. Let’s go!

Snowed all day at quartz… what do I know!

 

[Jorg Jorgenson]

Seen some reports of quartz from this past weekend. Lots of carnage lol. 50-60cm in wind-blown areas and 100cm in low-lying. Not enough to convince me to head that way just yet...

Cool vid. I sure wish you tubers would stop playing gay music with Snowmobile footage. I’d rather just hear the Sled.

I’m going to use the starship rocket launch as music in my sled videos this year…
And this clip when my turbo blows up.

Hi, Where is the staging currently up SilentPass.?
Any recent eyes up there, snow pack updates.?
Cheers.

FYI- there is very little snow still…30-45cm at 6000ft. Few wind pockets in alpine that are deeper…I’d imagine you could drive to 45km

Locals what’s the word? We’re heading up next Friday. Wondering if we’re going to be able to ride?

Just stay home guys. Went up silent pass today. We did make it to the lakes. On average 30cm base with very small pockets of 50cm. Lots of rock and debris to hit on the way in

Parked at 54km marker, trucks only here. Trailers stop at 50ish I would say right now

First lake, I only ever see this many trees on the summer time

Well, a mediocre ride is better than no ride. I get a new ankle on the 8th of December, so I need to get one weekend in before I’m benched for the whole good part of winter. Thanks for the heads up tho.

Awesome oler1234 the waterfall would have been pulling straws to see who had to go first

 

[busted2x]

Well, I ripped my ski off at quartz, ended the day early, but up until that it was actually a decent day of riding.
