As promised. Pictures of Lucille Mountain this morning. We hear that there is three feet of snow at Lucille cabin, but you have to go up the trail a ways before you get to snow. Not quite ready, but give it a week or so. Looks like a good start to the season. Will post more pictures as the snow builds up.

Thanks for the first hand info. Like I said previously, not quite ready yet. Lots of snow is supposed to be coming the next two weeks. Keep dancing boys !!!

Dragontamer you seem peed off a little. Why? Did you not read the previous posts about not enough snow? Peeps post what is there for snow and you put a " RANT" Smiley behind your post. Sometimes snow conditions change unexpectly in the mountains to the good or to the bad. McBride is usually very accurate in their reports. Barry and his gang dont want upset riders to the area. I know you travelled a fair distance for VERY minimal conditions but you were told ahead of time to wait. What if you did some major damage to your sled and had to miss a month of riding while you fixed your ride. Note to ALL who like us ALL want to get riding please wait till conditions are ready so that we dont have negative responses on here. Thanks

Whoa boys !!! Nothing is going to keep me from posting pics and conditions. Dragontamer gave us a first hand, truthful report and that is exactly what we want to see. His information was very helpful to everyone that is itching to get going. Just gotta wait for some more snow.

So if I read this correctly the gate is unlocked for us to access the renshaw?

Yes, the gate is open and will stay that way until spring runoff starts.
Rained in town all last night so that means a couple more inches up top at least. Still not quite enough.

I can say one thing is the ALL the information that HeyJude and BBtoys relay on here is true facts. They post exactly what they see, good or bad.

We usually wait till the end of November before we make the trek up to renshaw, and I haven't been let down yet. So let it snow:xmas-smiley-010::xmas-smiley-010::snow:

Rained all night again last night in town. Mountains are all socked in this morning with what looks like snow.

There's a bunch of locals that were up Lucille on Friday and said the snow was good past the cabin, but you still gotta watch for rocks. They are going up again this Friday and hopefully I will be able to post some pictures.

On another note Hotrod and myself will be bringing the groomer up Friday just to get things in place for the upcoming season. But no grooming to commence until snow levels dictate. Higgins.
