Atlas is good, for newbies. just West and north of Colman.
Some not bad hotels in Blairmore and Colman. Nothing special.
If you want a pool? Stay in Pincher Creek.

Look up Crow Snow riders.
If they are grooming, you can donate.
But its voluntary. I've never seen the groomer out, but only been going there a couple years.
And hasent been the greatest for snow.

We rode the Atlas this past weekend and the snow was poor for a few km from the stage area then improved. There was rain earlier last week and the forecast looks warm this week so have scratchers or you will have problems.

the groomer has been out and anybody who rides trail systems should buy trail passes to support both the local club and also for the government so they know numbers of who rides in areas ..... the more people that buy trail passes the better

If your looking for a cabin the crowsnest mtn resort is my favorite. If you want a motel the bcmi in Coleman is decent. The Kanata Motel in Blairemore had just recently been redone.

Check conditions closer to your trip. Right now I'd recommend riding south out of Corbin or fernie. Hopefully we get some snow for family weekend.
