if you can find fresh, its cold smoke that your dreaming of,
just gettting harder and harder to find.
minimal new snow in the last week.
everyone is still saying good things about quartz gorman and sigh-lent.

So what's the verdict? Are Quartz, Gorman & Silent pounded out or still worth the 3+ hour drive out?

I vote no if they haven,t had any snow since Sat hit a rock at Quartz Friday and broke a chain case on my kids dragon, Silent was better but was getting pretty tracked up by the end of Sat and there was lots of rocks there also. Golden needs a good dump before I head back.

Went into silent monday and was allright, still some pow around, went back into holt tuesday and was ok too, once you get off the hiway, the snow was getting harder that day, and starting to slide about 10inches thick.

We have been getting snow but only a few cm at a time... boring! It looks like there is a fair amount of precip in the upcoming days so we are allllll keeping our fingers crossed. Keep in mind now there is 10-15cm of surface facets with new snow on top with some wind in the forecast. maybe this will be the first real storm cycle of the year????

Contact Arron at Mountain Motorsports, top notch guy. My second choice if I had to get a guide would be Mike at Sun Peaks, he's out of the Golden Rim, Days Inn now I guess.

Anyone riding Golden area on the 10 and 11th. I was coming out for the weekend, but thought I would come out early and check out what this storm is bringing. Sledding buddies can't make it until Thursday night, or Friday night, so looking for someone to ride with. Shoot me a PM if anyone is going out and doesn't mind me tagging along.
