Talked to Hotrod this morning, did a oneway up Renshaw last night. It was raining on the trail up till 20km but after that snowing very hard! Hoping temps fall so he can clean things up!! Plus yesterday he was out with friends to AB/BC and it was very, very good snow over there and no tracks and 1/2 day of bluebird!

Headed out tomorrow, Higgins you going to be in town?

Val was really good lots of base and coverage 2-3 feet all through the trees had 2 really good days in Alan ......theirs just no coverage at all in mcbride I couldn't believe the rocks showing everywhere some ok riding in the trees but the lack of coverage sucks rode back a long way and snow in the open wouldn't cover my ski hoops and hit so many rocks with skis

The one good thing about snow like this if you already their you can explore lots of new areas you can drop in almost anywhere and get back out

We have fresh snow on bell Lucille and renshaw it's kinda heavy but will say it's deep on renshaw and from what I've heard it's good on bell and Lucille as well. Got stuck in about 3 feet of snow today but the riding was awesome. With the heavy snow ride safe cause avalanches are a definite possibility
