Yellowstone, New years... Not the first trip, but the first sled holiday of the year. :) Can't wait. We ride outside of the park (the Park is for tourists, the Park sucks, we don't even go near it). Idaho and Wyoming is where all the trails and the killer riding is. :d

old pic, sorry.

So when is usually enough snow in the Mcbride Valemont area to go? My dad bought a new sled and wants to get out to the mountains for his first trip.

The boys start riding almost anytime after November 1st depending upon the snow. Barry and Rod are going up Lucille this weekend. Pulling the sleds on the trailer with the RZR and then unloading to go play. Will post pictures.

Alot of snow up top over the last three days. They figure there's about a foot or so at Lucille Cabin. Will let you know.

Nov 17-19 weather permitting to Revelstoke, earliest planned trip yet but I have talked to a few guys that go every year on the Nov long weekend and have fantastic conditions, thought we would try it.
