Golden/area conditions 2024/2025!!!

Hows the parking situation at Silent Pass with the lot going in at the 17km mark? Still room for decent sized trailers? I've never seen it put in here, and there doesn't seem to be a ton of room there unless they clear a new lot.

Usually when the lot is there there is a big turn around and then everyone lines up along the side of the road. It works pretty good until someone special decides they will just park in the turn around.

Anyone been up silent recently? Where’s parking at, how’s the trail

We did Silent on Saturday. Parking was at 35km ish. No grooming yet so had about 15km of whooped trail, with the worst whoops on the single track (obviously). Snow is pretty good if you get off the main areas, with lots of hazards exposed up top from being wind swept. All in all a good day on Saturday. Maybe 20 sleds is all we saw that day.

Gorman…. Good for a trail ride, past that I wouldn’t venture to far off the trail untill the next dump. Even then I’d be cautious. Good snow just ZERO base.

Parking is at the upper lot right now that’s how low conditions are at.

Trail is decent but getting whooped out quickly. I doubt you’ll see another groom untill it snows more. There is no warming shack, still parked at the bottom parking lot.

quartz has great trail but needs snow it’s so bad there. We didn’t even wanna ride again and risk hitting something lots of hazards.

Rights, you crash up the mines yet this year?

Normally never try there until mid January due to Alders and early avy activity.

Plus this year I am in Nova Scotia for another 2-3 weeks
