So what's the verdict out there...

Golden is pretty pounded out, has little base, and has nothing in the forecast... is revy in bad shape as well?
Is it worth the drive or should we stay home and drink rum all weekend?

The riding is great in Revy as long as you are willing to get off the beat and path. If you don't know the area make should you have a GPS with you as there is lots of trouble areas. If your looking for deep powder you better stay home and watch a video because there hasen't been any fresh snow in a week. That being said, the areas are hugh in Revy and there is always good snow you just have to go find it.

Yes Jeff, the trees weren't as tight as I like but I had my 14 year old son riding with us and I have to pay to fix the sleds. We rode for 4 days and now I have a bumper to change out. I'm sure were used the saw every day so fun was had by all.

Just back from Revy and it is pounded at Frisby and Boulder. Peeps are looking for secret spots but they are used up to. Pray for snow!

Was about 14" of freshy on Frisby this morning....unfortunately, vis was about 10 feet. We played a bit a few miles up from the cabin but gave up around 10 or 11 and headed down. Gonna be fairly nice once the sun comes out!

For all of you that were out here before Christmas and rode the deep powder, well it's back!. We had a good stretch but it was time for another dump and it came last night as we rode in knee deep snow at 6000' and there is more on the way. Five of us had the snow bikes out and we had a blast riding the steep-n-deep in the trees the whole day. One thing nice about tree riding is all that heavy snow and fog that was in the air today didn't stop us at all from dropping into just about anywhere. Wish I had some pics but went out with a dead battery.

We found deep every day ..... Just had to look for it ...It snowed over a foot on bolder on sunday and the snow we found in the trees was DEEP!!!! Had a great trip and there was lots to ride if you just look for it. Id imagine by now there's good snow everywhere because of the systems that came thru sun and mon.

WE will be back in 3 weeks revy! KEEP SNOWING!!!

By the way it is snowing here on tuesday night I would go out on a limb and say the powder should be deeper than we have seen it this season. I thought the snow was amazing on sunday and were in our 2nd storm since then. Hopefully your passed the visa bill hangover from the holidays and can make it out to Revy this weekend.

Deep. Couldn't climb a thing, stuck on the flats, and lots of throttle going downhill if you could even see anything.
