I dont ride quratz creek much but we aint seen ch!t lately here.

rogers pass is saying 20cm over last 48 - 72hours.

ski is saying 4cm over nite and 15cm in 7 days ... ouch!

our friend just got back from her shift at chatter creek and says it has been puking out there.
35cm one nite 20cm next etc etc when we get nothing.
I'm not saying go poach thier terrain,
but I spoke to guys yestdy that were at hope on satdy and said it was off the hook deep blower!
one guy said best day ever!
hope doesnt see alota traffic as its a wayz out there,
but its almost the same weather patern as chatter creek.

other wise keep driving if you dont have a secret stash.

I don't often venture out from my secret stash,
but I went to gorman 2day and had an epic day !!!

we only saw 7 other sledz all day and rode hero snow in alpine and vis got better as every hour passed.
ok so the trail in is in poor condition,
but on the way down I was doing 80kph for much of it,
corners were whooped out,
you know the deal with the poor grooming in these partz for us mid-weekers.

don't over heat your sled,
but it was far better than anyone expected !!!

gorman was a ghost town all week,
buddies said same about satdy,
silent pass has been blowing peoples mind!
my go to zone had 2 other private sledders on sundy only ???

there is still a crazy amount of quality pow waiting to be slayed!

all my crew is MIA so I'd appreciate someone to help unstuck my pregnant cow of a sled ... hehe !!!

serious fun is easy to find ...

Rode quartz today, day was better then we were expecting. Over the hood pow in many places. There was a few times the sun came out but not enough to set up the snow. Lots of pow to be found yet and was snowing when we left this afternoon.
