Invermere area conditions 2018-2019

[Reklaw]

Opening day today was good, reaally thin in the meadows. Lots of hazards just beneath the snow.

Snow was deep above whirlpool, getting there was spicy. It never feels right when your roosting slush and water.

Road is plowed but slippery, logging at 31km and plowed to 33km.

It really doesn't take long to track out an area does it!

Looking good. Those lakes don't take much to hammer out with 8 or 10 sleds. Anybody been back into paradise or up north at Rocky or anything yet?

Not enough snow to get into rocky point. Paradise has been fun for boarding but to boney for sled brappin.
Saturday is the day to be at Forster, big storm starting now ending Friday pm. Blue sky Saturday.

I hope so, depends on snowfall at the resort. If its deep I'll need to help my crew plow roads.

Rocky Point- Can drive to 17km. Would recommend not to go further although made it to 20km.
2 feet of snow at Rocky Point sign around 30km. Did not go up trail but spoke to lodge guy and he said 5 feet of fresh fell up top in the past week.

Deep, stuck and holy **** were the words most heard on the radio.

Rocky point is a sketchy place to access after a big dump.

Been back up brewers?

No, hasnt been alot of snow yet in that area. Might be worth a look now though, have had 60ish cms of snow this week at the resort and big winds.

Wowza. That would be an area I would love to see them bombing. There's some nasty aspects there west of the cabin. Seen any pics of it?
