A whopping 2.5" of fresh reported in the Allan lot this morning.

No reports from the alpine yet

Clemina and Allan will be groomed for the morning:d

Chappell will be groomed again Saturday night. A reduced rate of $10 will be applied to trail passes for this area on Saturday

Hope everyone has a great weekend ! It may even snow tonight !

just talked to some friends staying at my place to night who said the snow conditions are pretty poor.

 

[Depsnolvr]

I though allan was pretty good yesterday. Not much fresh, maybe 2", but it was nice a soft everywhere with the warm conditions

 

[Carrots]

Found about 2ft of fresh at clemina today. It was amazing just you couldnt see.:d

Rode Milage today, snowin' like a bat out of h*11, awsome conditions, not many people. Sweet day, about 1 1/2 feet fresh!

Rode Millage on Friday. A couple inches of fresh and poor visibilty.
My son and I went to Clemina on Saturday found some good snow in different areas. Had a great day. Either day I would Take. Better than sitting at home dreamin...

 

[CUSO]

So what is it? 2", 18" or 24" of fresh overnight?

 

[Depsnolvr]

Cant speak for Chappell.

Allan has a few inches.

Clemina is really good with lots of spots left to play in. I would definately say its the better of the two

From what I have seen, we did not get a "foot" of fresh, but the conditions out there are good, especially off the beaten path

glassman, you sure sound grumpy this year.....lol

Doesnt that new turbo make you happy:d

 

[glassman]

No, not grumpy, I just need a powder fix! Best ride this season was the first one.(nov11) Now with this turbo if I dont have 3 feet of fluff it isnt a challenge. Also with all these closures I cant even ride in half of my little "hidden" areas when the snow is low. Just thinking of all the old "back ways in" when the trail was rough after a few days of riding. We didn't have groomers and you toughed out the 2 ft swells but it was worth it cause you always had fresh. Whine,whine,whine.

Depsnolvr, you should try travelling with glassman on a multi-day trip when he can't find fresh snow. I don't wish that on my worst enemies.

What is the snow like out there. Heading out tonight will be riding tommorow and Saturday.

 

[Depsnolvr]

It is cooling off a bit, but I really cant tell you of the snow. The weekend had great conditions, with nice soft snow due to the warm weather. A friend was at Clemina yesterday and had a foot penetration of 30cm up on Lakeview. Blue has gotten some snow, so I would imagine that Chappell got a does as well. It is also groomed tonight, so that would be my choice for tomorrow.

I have a few pics up in a previous post of Allan and a logging road. If you look at the allan pic, thats superbowl in the background, they were riding enough fresh to get stuck on that hill within eyesight of the most poplular area, but is funny, everyone said there was no snow.........

Should be a beautiful weekend, dont forget the camera
