yes there was lots of snow up there, guys talking about riding till july but not sure how they will get the sleds there. we did about 3 km of rock, mud, trees (standing or were standing, and downed trees). was a great day, tons of laughs as at 1 time we had 1 out of 4 sleds running, but that one was in rough shape. 1 helicopter ride, 2 sleds in the drink( one real bad ask johni about that one) 1 sprained ankle, 1 encounter with a water fall. overall it was the best trip of the year. would post pics but i do not know how. will let johni post them.

Some crazy pictures... JZB was able to ride the doo out after sinking it?

Lots of effort to get there by the looks of it!

ok i will tell from the start

was about 3 km of the crap mud, trees, water (quading stuff)
we get to the cabin and 10 mins of pissing around our friend finds his way off a snow drifted over rock face and bailes off the sled before it jammes itself into the water fall (was about 8 feet down from the drift) 3 inches of snow held the tunnel up from falling another 15 feet down between the falls and snow. he aslo sprained his ankle on that tumble.

then the 07 xp (what a surprize) needed a choper. no it was not the sleds fault or driver (the install of the electric start... + wire shorted out on the frame and took out the electronics, would not start

we head back to cabin and wait for the chopper MR. johni blaze decides to run the creek well it turns out that when you hit an ice berg the sled usually stops and sinks.. was the funniest thing i think i have ever seen.

then i was trying to get him out and i pulled a stupid and stuck mine in the creek too..

helicopter shows up and sees---- 2 sleds in the drink, 1 guy limping, 1 sled with mangled hood held together with bunji cords. needless to say he was in stitches as so were we..

fnally the story will end as we getall sleds out and running again, and the xp was at the heli pad.
was a great day would not trade that day for anything. oh ya 22 hour round trip lol

ya might make it to boulder cabin, there are so many little branch trails,
we took Bezanson trail almost to the top and then a side trail that had a bit of snow on it.
I would sugest Bezanson or Viedaman but I was told Kirkup is a no go,,
should be lots of snow left up there, bring home some PIX, lets see some action,
wish I could come.
have fun, be safe, RIDE DIRTY!:d
