Wind will sure amp up the factors of the terrain. With all the loose snow lets be careful out there. I wouldn't want to see anybody get caught in a life changing situation.

BE AVALANCHE SMART........

We just got back from a week of riding mcbride. Conditions at renshaw were great but you had to go a ways to find it. Everything around the cabin is tracked. Trail is amazing. Was dumping snow when we left. Lol. We went up belle and lucelle for night rides and outside of going into the burn and deep in trees both places are tracked and wind blown. We started our way back to spirit along with some others and looked as though we were the first to go back. But a lot of snow has fallen so others may have. But needless to say there is endless snow if you know where and aren't scared to go deep to find it.

I have never ever not been able to find fresh at Renshaw, just need to know where to venture to. Should not have to go far though as up to 61cm is forecast for the next 5 days.
Truck to the cabin s only half the trip for distance.
