Hunters Range 2023 - 2024

[ferniesnow]

No snow line, it poured rain to the top of Fly Hills.

Mother Nature is in the process of delivering another batch of that stuff. We will see what happens with the next load.

I’ve been watching the weather. Looks like above zero in the Alpine with 30 to 60 K winds. The mountains will be like a melted ice cream pail thrown back in the freezer when this ends.

Be some solid base for traction once more piles up on top

Snowing lightly at my house all day today! It is 0º, so it's only kinda sticking. Has been -3ºish for the last 2 days in the alpine, so fortunately not rain. Forecast is similar temps and a little bit of precip each day this week. Not the reset we need, but a start in the right direction at least.

So when the snow sucks, kick it in the face and get out and enjoy the friends the laugh and stories.
A day in the hills still beats a day behind the key board with your internet buddies.
Sunday Feb4......OOoops, BTW, not Hunters but some where in the beautiful Manashees.

I know, it was bad after some of the younger boys decided to load it up with green limbs. Flamed up real good for 3-4min then smoked us out hahaha.

I meant the sleds, all 2 strokes i see. The fire is pretty sad there too though haha



Looks like a fun day. When the snow sucks perfect time for a fire.

Yep, it was a 2smoke day LOL, mother nature fought back with the fire but we eventually prevailed once we got control of the young bucks with the green stuff.
It was a great time for sure.

Ya, don't be fooled. It's still rock hard 12" under the surface.

I'll take that 12", last Sunday was only about 3-4" on concrete.
Was in Eagles on Tuesday and the snow is worst, talked to a couple guys that were out at Frisby and said it was even worst then Eagles.
It appears the further up the corridor the worst the snow is.
So staying in the southern zones and work #6, tomorrow Park and Pinnacles Saturday or Sunday. May hit Cook though on Saturday.

How do you like the Borch throttle?

Pretty good. Second sled I've installed one on.
My only complaint would be the heater fails. The solder cracks where the wire attaches to the heater film. It's a diy repair, but not as robust a connection as the factory one.

Well never made it there, got home about 3hrs ago after spending a good part of the day in Vernon Jubilee with a torn hamstring, Yesterday in Cook. My season has ended, waiting to see the surgeon on Wednesday.
But Cook was good, we found areas with 18-20" but on average 12" on that hard ch!t. Thus the culprit on the torn hamstring.
Be careful out there.
