Belle and Lucille trails are in great condition and we are still grooming. snow up top was about 5 inches on Saturday nite. parking at the parking lots and snow on the trail from there.Parking lots are bare and mostly dry.
Renshaw trail is spring riding shape. Patchy spots after 1 km but not to bad. parking lot is bare and mostly dry. no snow on the trail down to the shack. snowed about 3 inches sunday at cabin.
Looks like tonite may be the last groom of the year on Renshaw as it is almost impossible to work the snow on that side of the valley. Trail user fees will be collected today,wed and possibly thurs.
Parking as of today can be done at 1 km at the wide spot, NO LARGE TRAILERS, spring trail conditions.

Grooming Update:
After last night's grooming up Renshaw, the guys met and re-evaluated this morning. Last night's grooming turned out VERY well with the cooler temps, so Hotrod will keep grooming for now. There is a smaller parking lot at KM2 just past the bridge and the trail collector will be directing trucks up there. DO NOT park any further up than that or it will wreck the trail and grooming will have to cease. Guys with the larger trailers should probably check with the trailhead collector before heading up there just to make sure to road is not too mushy - if you get stuck, it will be almost impossible to pull you out. Decks would be best at this time.

I'm guessing that Barry is out riding that's why you're posting the update.

Belle and Lucille are good to go from the parking lots. Still grooming those as well.

Renshaw- parking at .05 and at 2 km. snow on the trail from .05 to the top. large trailers are not being suggested as the turn around is very tight. plowed the parking lot at 2 km lastnite. park like nice guys and we can get a bunch in there.
Lucille- parking at the parking lot and snow from there all the way to the top.
Belle- parking at the parking lot with snow from there to the top.

ALL THREE TRAILS ARE STILL BEING GROOMED.
ICY FOR THE FIRST FEW KM.
