The boys have gone up Bell this morning to test out Ron's sled.

+5 in town and snowing on the top 2/3 of the mountains so they may see some powder up there. We still need more snow down lower but is supposed to be on it's way the next few days.

They will be posting reports when they get back tonight. Stay tuned.

Ron has been at Spindrift the past couple of hours. He's not a happy guy right now. He did make it to the cabin and further, but had a mechanical problem after riding a while. Also some loose bolts and a bad shock didn't help him too much. Glengine's looking after him.

Light snow up top all day, so the conditions were not right for taking pictures. The rest of the guys had fun. Chucker had to make a trip to Spindrift for a part and he's good to go now. No carnage due to rocks and/or logs today, but they were pretty safe going up Bell. Saturday will be a trip up Renshaw - snowed all day up there so they should find some nice powder once they get up the trail. Still not much snow on the lower portions of the trails. Our guests this weekend are rknight111, summit, chucker, Dave, Charlie & Daniel (Charlie's son).

He didn't even get to the cabin and problems. No turbo at all, what a cluster -----. All day trying to make it work but not a turbo mec. so no luck. Half the nite at Glen's, found alot of problems and fixed, got turbo working but mapping was screwed so he borrowed my truck this am and off to Sicamouse. The boys down there are waiting for him and have promised to have it fixed, dinoed and on his way in a couple of hours. I am not going to comment at this time about what was wrong as that is up to Ron. I am not at all impressed with what I saw. Tomorrow should be a good day. Still snowing up top today and hoping for a good dump of snow. Bell was fun in the trees and burn blocks, lots of good snow there, no pic's sorry but when not trying to fix a sled rode hard to burn my alloted fuel. LOL
