New 2024/25 Cataract Creek snow and riding conditions

[tucker_98]

Dec 1 has arrived! Who made it out?! Post your pics! I'm stuck at work but I'm sure some of you guys are making some tracks today.

And can a moderator sticky this thread and unstick the old? Thanks!

Snow is horrible. Don't go. There's an update lol.

Any pics of conditions? Rode Fernie this weekend and conditions are good for trail, mostly covered off trail but tons of landmines. Saw some pics posted in the TeamSnap for CSC that showed Atlas trails are great as well. Haven't seen anything on cataract. Anyone had a look or went for a ride lately?

We were out on the 7th, not a lot of snow, icy underneath in spots and every ice flow and creek is open. Was enough to go for a ride but definitely need a few good dumps.

Both warm up shacks are marked on this map.

The one on the south end is new and very nice.

The one on the far west is an trappers camp/shack from decades ago. Still there but if you are looking for comfort this isn't the one to head for.
