Have all next week off if some peps want a thorough tour of Renshaw up to and well beyond Spirit Lake - been riding the area 4-6 times a year for the last 15 years. Storm or sunny is the same to me.
Everybody working or on holidays that I regularly ride with, been home two weeks doing nothing.
AST1, all gear including truck and enclosed trailer.
Has to be weekdays only.

I would give myself a 7 out of 10 for ability, not typically left behind but have been stuck in some pretty ****ty spots and don't expect help to get out either. Everybody owns their own shovel.
Let me know if anybody interested, Ron Ric or Curtis on site can vouche for my abilty at Renshaw.

South Dore if you want something a little more intense.
I am leaving late tonight for out of town until Saturday night late setting up some bear stands but will check site on my phone.

Thanks

Thanks, thought the castle creek road was still open and yes half the alpine is closed for the caribou that have never been there.
North and south dore accesses closed for some time now.

Up Renshaw for an epic ride, out to Spirit and round behind Pyramid! Bluebird and untracked for the most part!!! Ran into Poleman from S&M and his guest just by Spirit! Trail was great up and down with 88 riders on the hill!! Great week of spring riding in McBride!! Back next year!!

Another rip up Renshaw for us Today. Sun came out again and snow is set up but still found untouched. Went further back behind Pyramid than we have ever been. Some incredible terrain and it just keeps going. Put on over 175 km

Back up Renshaw again today for the last ride of the season. Low light and warmer temps to start the day. Went through the anthills and on to Spirit. Found fresh again and rode 2 new areas with no tracks Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay. Back
Winter looks to be back for today anyways, went from dead calm to black sky's heavy winds and snow back there. was a race to get back before it turned into a white out.
Higgins , please thank Hot Rod and crew for another great season looking after the trails.
Cheers !

Scott, looks like you hit the mother load also!!! Good for you guys!! The trails were excellent all week long, we rode 5 days and the temps were just right at night to keep things in great condition, no complaints here! Poleman and Born Ready, was nice to cross paths with your gang!! Higgins!
