I have a trip coming up dec 4th and am pretty amped to finally go somewhere new. Thing is I can't seem to track down a sledders snow report for any areas. I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find such a report, or if anyone knows the current conditions there. Also, any advice on where to go that has some good climbs and fluffy bowls would be awesome, as I'm not sure how many riding areas there are. I'll be going back there for Christmas as well so I'd like to get a jump on the good riding, thanks!

Lots of land mines on the pipeline! It is pretty much a road ride. Climbing is out of the question unless you have deep pockets to pay for the repairs. Just not enough snow for anything serious yet. Remember that it is only mid-November.....

Haven't been up for a week???? Had to have a rest and attend to other things. I should have time to go Friday or the weekend. We have had a lot of rain and I think right to the top; I was disapointed. It has cooled off today and is presently snowing.....I'm excited again....
