Just thought I'd start a thread for sledders in the Sturgeon area north Of Edmonton and St Albert including Namao, Cardiff, Morinville, Gibbons and surrounding areas. Need to keep myself busy some how waiting for snow so I figured why not. With the warm weather today I decided to pull the sled out and stretch it's legs a bit before most of the snow melts. Felt good...

I was able to find some deep snow... relatively. Well deep for my dog. She was up to her belly, but it doesn't take much.

I think the only person around here to have some decent seat time this season is my daughter. She's loving it and wants me to be to be able to ride too. Hopefully soon but mother nature needs to get it together.

On a side note I've seen tracks on the Sturgeon River. Way too early folks. Hold off. :beer:

My boyfriend and I live in Edmonton and either him or I or both would be more than happy to come on out for a ride! Message myself or QuintinG if you ever want to go out! :)

Will keep both of you in mind. There are a bunch of locals that get together once in a while. Hope for snow.

Here's a horribly armature video from last year of some snow & mud members.:beer:

I am going to long island lake since no one wants to go riding today. Did you get anymore snow since last weekend that way?

Nothing in the last week. Had a dusting of it yesterday. Not enough around here to ride. I havent been up to the trails, so I cant say whats there, but I imagine its the same as here. If you go, post up what you find. Im hoping to go for a ride next weekend, but I was thinking Swan Hills ( Goose Tower ). Thanks. :D

Ok thanks. I will go with plan B. I am loading up right away and once I can find the map and staging area for swan hills I am heading out there. Sounds like from there along that snow belt to Edson and Robb had a heavy snow fall warning last night.

Well this is staring to suck. Hardly enough snow to cover the lugs on my track around Namao, and nothing much in the forecast that I can see. If we don't get anything soon I'll be doing some traveling.
