November 11 is a Looooooong way away in the snowfall world. Ive seen it where there is 5cm on the ground an a week later were sledding. Getting dumped on in Golden is no surprize to me

Last year, which was an exception for this area, we rode on Nov 7th and it was sweet!

A person must remeber that it is early season riding kinda like late season riding. Because yes there can be some landmines out there.

its kinda like russian roulette lol,,,

yes you must be aware of things hiding,,, and something that looks too good needs to wait,,, but quartz is a good spot for early riding it seems to dump...

we usually work the same spots so we have a good idea of whats hiding but the odds are obviously higher for carnage.

Thing I find with early season is the bottomless snow. Be prepared to dig and lift! Especially if people are stopping in stupid spots =)

You bet..Nov 11 is first trip of the year and it rocks out in Golden. Last nov.11
6ft of powder..

Check the forecast for Golden...

Looks like moisture is on it's way. 10mm down at the bottom could mean feet up top.

 

[jaredszakacs]

I'll be heading that way on friday and saturday i will let everyone know how things are shapping up in that area

Couple years ago up renshaw and went into the meadows and it was "epic".....deep, deep snow, but almost bottomless..... What a hoot!!!
