Yeah........The rain has arrived. Im not certain yet what is falling in the alpine, hopefully someone can chime in with first hand info. It was raining in the staging areas this morning.

I would also like to know if anyone has been uptop riding. Watching the weathernetwork, and with all the rain forecast in town, I am worried about driving 10hr to find a skating rink uptop.

We have not received much rain in the last two days and this morning the skies have opened up a bit and it looks like a chance for some nice blue sky riding. Numbers this week have been VERY low. The rain is falling as snow up high, but the user numbers are down so low that we have not heard what is happening up top, although I can see the fresh snow line from my office.

The lower trails are still in good shape at this point, but please bear with us if we keep receiving this warm weather.

I should be back up and running soon, and will hopefully be able to start posting pics again.

FRI Jan 22 There is a Derek Ruttan Concert here in town with a bunch of tickets left. This will be a great venue. Tickets can be purchased through Infinity Office at 250-566-4225

Hey Curtis what's the news on that burnt sled in Allen,did the respectfull owner drag it out or just claim it stolen....There was also a xp on the backside of the hillclimb that was left on Jan. 1, looked like it was rolled when we went by it in the dark. Was ur motor covered under BRP warranty or were u on ur own?

No word on the burnt sled. I have gone in and unburried, piled and marked the parts pile (destroyed a coat and pair of gloves in the process) ) but I have not been able to get back their with a suitable tobagon yet. There is lots of weight there and we will need a solid swivel hitch.

Pretty sure I know the story on the XP and its out......

Motor = short block on my expense

Happy Sledding..................

Rode in clemina today, and yes 14" of fresh with a solid base not a track to be seen passed the cabin. Condition's are excellent.

 

[Depsnolvr]

It looks to be puking up in the alpine. Visibility may not be great, but the snow should be awesome this weekend ! Chappell tomorrow should be sick !

Take care this weekend and play safe. Read and understand the CAA ratings for the North Columbia region

Stop by the VARDA office if you would like any more information.
