Official 2015/2016 Fernie conditions

[ThrottleOps]

Another day sledding in Fernie and another day that the Etec gets back to the truck on fumes.

Not much for photos today, to busy sledding.









No action shots cause no one seems to like to follow me into the trees for some reason??

A little more explanation please. Are you planning on riding Harvey, MacLatchie, Ram, or further into the Flathead?

Another great day in/on the snow. Warm temps, blue bird, and a groomed trail all the way to the Notch. Thanks a lot to the FSA and Mick..............very much appreciated!

 

[ferniesnow]

A few more................yes, there is lots of untracked remaining!

I thought they weren't allowed to groom the pipeline. Hats off to the Rebel groomer who drove to the Notch

Haha I'm gonna hold you to that bopper, I know you and your sled are quite acquainted with the trees and you have the knack for seeing a good photo opp.

I headed out yesterday morning around 5, no shortage of decks and trailers loaded right up in town. Should be a busy weekend.

Hopefully I'll be back in a couple weeks.

I am don't know whether or not it is random. I'm not involved with the decision making anymore. I only know that it was groomed on Wednesday evening.

I don't know if that was the case. I do know that the club's groomer (BP180) would not be able to climb the grades. Yes, hats off to Foothills Silver Culture!

When we popped out of the trees it was a pleasant treat!!!!

Heavy logging on the LodgePole to/up the MacLachie. It was advised on the Fernie web page to stay away from MacLatchie as logging traffic would be heavy. A radio controlled road and I am not familiar with the pullouts. You can read the info at https://www.facebook.com/ferniesnowmobile

Zipper Mouth Creek...............it was a great day with a couple of very experienced flatlanders. Rode untracked all day, fresh was falling, and the snow was great!

Living on the edge...........in Zipper Mouth Creek!

The headwaters of Zipper Mouth Creek................FYI the valley bottom rain turned to snow last night and we got 5 cm in Elkford and FAR is reporting 16 cm.
