Hey, can anyone tell me if they are still logging in Keystone? I'm heading that way this week or next and am trying to decide what truck/trailer combo to bring. Thanks!

Yes they are still logging and you need a Radio. Parking is small, I would not take an enclosed trailer up there, it is also 5 km to the parking lot and if others are there the parking fills up fast. I was just there.

It's almost cheating being on a snow bike in these conditions in respect to where you can go exploring. The crust was a little hard to take down below but it did not that long and straight up threw the trees we went popping out into the alpine. The possibilities are endless so don't ask where we went, just another honey hole.

Great shots! Generally I now look at things and say I want to rip that on a sled but those pictures bring the skier back out of me!

We rode Owlhead in Sicamous on our second day. Snow conditions were much better than boulder. You could climb almost anything you wanted and there was still a foot of loose snow. The single file trails going back past skinny ridge did get iced up but all in all it was a great day. Best blue bird day I have ever seen in my sledding life. Not a single cloud in the sky all day, you could see for miles. You can't put a price on the view we had.

Hate to say it but with work this will be my last ride of the year. I hope that with the horrible conditions we had this year we may be blessed with a constant dump like the east coast got this year.

Play Safe out there. Cheers
