Valemount Conditions and Updates 2020 2021

[earlskies]

I used to haul 2 quads / sleds on a an aluminum 10' 2 place with my wife's V6 Ford Edge all the time. Mileage wasn't bad, maybe 12-13 L/100km.

As long as you aren’t riding a brand new Polaris without shocks you’ll be ok...

I’m picking up my snowcheck tomorrow. I’ve called Polaris customer service 4 times and am tired of dealing with it. My dealer at Segwick Ab put some lower end fox clicker shocks on for me so I can actually ride it. Heading to mcbride on Tuesday. They are just going to swap them out when and if mine ever arrive. Sooooo happy with that dealer.

anyways with all this revy stuff on the news I’m getting a little nervous. We’re staying in a cabin outside of town but almost feel like a criminal going to do something I love. Hoping we will be ok with the red and blue plates!

Feels the same way being a firearm owner lol.
You’ll be fine, just follow the towns guidelines and be respectful, as others have said. Enjoy your trip.

Allan was great on Tuesday. Switchbacks were not as bad as Sunday. Barely lost traction going up and hardly used brake coming down. Untouched in the back further back and probed 145-155cm’s. Was a great day. Wind blown on tops but found great snow.

Spring like condition with this inversion today up in Allan. Snow was best in premier. The trailhead well is simply sacked out.

Well that’s unfortunate. We found great snow on Tuesday up there.

Anyone know if or when Clemina will be open to sledding?

I guess it’s what you think great snow is.

As soon as we can, with the bridge out at 4km and Trans Mountain full steep ahead on the access FSR, we need more snow to move to the side trail. Fingers crossed it is soon.

 

[VARDA]

Please be kind, we all want to groom as bad as you do. We hope to begin soon, but if you do require a groomed trail, both our neighbors are currently doing so and that option is always on the table.

Ok awesome. Thanks for the update. Yes hopefully soon.

Wow, look at the 7 day forecast for Valemount, looks like we can go enjoy soon and post some nice pics and reports.

Ya something like that only deeper lol

 

[VARDA]

We received some snow down low last night then it turned to rain again late in the evening by the looks of things. Blue River Highway Cam looks soggy as well. This not going to help access anywhere. The forecast also looks to have changed precip wise. At least it looks like the temps will cool back off here soon. We will keep updating as we can if anything improves snow and or access wise.

Just headed west guys. Going through Edson and it’s raining. What’s it doing up top? Snow soggy with rain? I’m so depressed on the change in forecast

thanks in advance
