Snow Watch

Drop over the butterfly and come back and tell us about your beginner ride lol! Lucille is a great area with a little of everything, I personally think belle is more for beginners but they are both great spots with short rides in.

Haha I'll take that it's a false statement! What is the butterfly though? A bowl?

Better yet drop into larva bowl..... first time in there i was puckered up.

 

[POWDERCHOWDER]

butterfly then larva then goat ridge or something... someone can correct me if i am wrong .....

Yes it's one of the Ridges/Bowls you drop into! Theres 3 drops in and out with a main chute that can get fairly rough or icey depending on the traffic. There is also 2 other bowls you can drop into past butterfly, which is Lava and Goats Ridge. These i would not recommend to anyone of average and below riding ability because they are steep drops/climbs in and out. Better to access in the spring.

Sounds like a pretty good time! If the snow is good after Christmas ill definitely have to make a trip out

Hey Higgins how's it going? What about that drop in over that ridge we did a couple seasons ago where you rode half way down and then decided to walk a little bit of it to see what was around the corner. Lol. Did you drop in there last season?

wow what time of year did you take those pics ? looks like nice weather.

 

[j.c.higgins]

Jeez Marty how you doing? Thats Goat Ridge, but i was in no mans land, and never being down there before and not getting back up top i had to go look! Then i did a solo roll after all!!!LOL.That was Feb.or Mar. a couple seasons back Hotrod and i hooked up with Crazy Wheeler for a little puckerfest! Only hit Lucielle once last season, lots at Belle, Renshaw a lot, Secret spot a couple and Blue River numerous times! We should try to hook up this season if possible!

Looks like spring

That's one of the smoother drops in I have seen. We have had guys/sleds end up in the trees, as well as a guy doing an end over end; catwheeling synchronized sledding tango with his sled into the bottom.

Looks like a nice dump right before the weekend! Couldn't be more jealous
