Ive got the whole thing on gopro, I'll have to upload it if I can figure it out. Definitely a lot of lessons learned.

You can post it directly to here just use the video camera icon beside the movie imbed icon.

Went to Allen today, parking lot has coverage, or at least it did this morning, trail up to the cabin is good. Snow is garbage as it always is at Allen when I go. We made it to the top of hill climb and we turned around and headed for the truck. Was trying to snow, socked right in and mainly blowing up there, snow is super setup.

On the way down it was pouring rain, and about 25 guys getting ready to head up the hill. We peaced out and headed south to Blue River.

On the way back it poured all the way from Finn Creek to just past chappell parking lot then switch to snow ish... was more snow on the highway at clemina parking lot.

Power outage from mcbride to Kamloops... steaks are on the bbq

Rode chappell today, the gentleman at the booth said 25 sleds in the past 3 days. Was hopeful with all the damn rain yesterday down low that it would lead to feet of snow up top, but that was wrong.
Not much snow in the parking lott but the Trail has good coverage, was very icy this morning so took awhile to get up to the riding area.

About a foot of firm fresh snow in most open areas, couple spots where the wind blew it was a bit deeper, sun was out all day which was a nice change. Had an 850T expert out today from Alpine Country rentals which was a blast.

Still some fresh lines out there... not quite sure where we are gonna ride tomorrow.

We rode Clemina today, parking lott is bare, first few KM are skinny. The little groomer was up this morning rolling snow back onto the trail, was definitely more dirt on the way down, but not terrible except for part where a guy has to ride down the road for a 100-150 meters.

Had a bit of sun in the morning, but mainly high overcast and light snow all day, Rode goat ridge, Lakeview, Bauers, morning glory, snow is very similar everywhere 8-12" of powder with a small ice crust layer an inch ish down.

All and all a good day, Jerry cans were being emptied by 2pm

Allan creek has snow coverage from parking lot, first part is slushy . Started snowing up top mid afternoon on saturday so hopefully a re-load.

Hey all!

Any one know if access to keyhole is actually not possible due to the pipeline, Or can you just take the highway ditch around to it and still enter?
Appreciate any info. Thanks.
