Just heading up to Renshaw, raining in town snowing hard on mountain view road!! But road is a mess be careful driving up!

Up Renshaw, definetly spring conditions!! 4-6" of new snow on a hard base! Had a great tour with the last stop being Weinberg bowl. Decent visibility. The old 12 pro hit 6000 alpine miles today!!

Thats a different way of towing.

thats what I thought too

Thats a different way of towing.

I've seen ski loops tied tight to bumper and that seems to work good. This way probably works also.

 

[j.c.higgins]

Works great but only on a groomed trail!

While we were venturing on the southern slopes of Mikado Peak close to the Alberta border this wkn , we saw some tracks down on Loren lake , how do you get down there in those meadows ? , must be coming from the Kakwa area i am assuming . Beautiful country out there too anyway !!

 

[Sledtillded]

Sorry to hear about the Pro Higgins. At least it didn’t let go at Spirit !!!

Googled those names you posted.....I could be wrong but I think you are on the wrong end of Renshaw for Kakwa?

But you are close to Ptarmigan lake. and yes you can get to Loren but you are dangerously close to Wilmore.

 

[007sevens]

Definitely not coming from the Kakwa

 

[Grain Farmer]

More than likely they came in Holmes river and up Chalco Creek, then wiggled there way onto Loren Lake. There was logging cutblocks from many years ago back there. They definitely did not drop down from Mt Mikado, we’ve tried every creek and gully as it just gets to steep and narrow.
