What area has the best early season riding? Might come down Dec 9-11…

I have been to quartz for AST1 field day a few years back but haven’t rode silent pass or Gorman lake.

This time of year, Gorman is a good Sunday, “I’m tired”run. Lots of torn up sleds come out of there from early season riding.

Silent is your best bet for early season. Back end of blueberry is good too. Fools hen, even chatter behind the lodge is good early season.

I’m gonna post some pictures in hopes everyone goes riding and wrecks there sled. Conditions are crazy differential right now. One spot will be rocks and another will be deep. BUT if you know where to go, conditions are good, bumper to headlight deep!
