2010-2011 Revelstoke Conditions

[TheOneBigMike]

I think its about time to talking about the conditions up there, especially with the progress of the new cabin on Boulder. Thanks goes out to all the volunteers that donated their time and resources to the benefit of the people that will be frequenting this thread (Secret selfish hope of being the person to start a thread that was stickied like its a big deal or something haha). Looking forward to seeing snow.

Tried last Saturday but the sled shed wasn't open that early Are passes going to be for sale at the Edmonton sled show ?

maps are almost useless in the mountains when the fog rolls in. If you are brand new to the revy area and coming all the way from Quebec, I would strongly reccomend a guide.

It is worth it for the safety reasons but you will also enjoy your ride a lot more as he wil know where to go.

We hope the Days Inn and Sandman will once again sell club membeships for us this season.
Daily passes are available at the trailheads.
Maps are available at the hotels and at trailheads. There will be a new map this season.

Beautiful cabin!! Congratulations to you guys. Your daily trail fee or club membership fee seems like a real bargain when you offer such a beautiful facility. I look forward to riding in your area sometime.

Boulder Cabin

Hey Kat is that a trap for the snow snake that got you last winter on the right of the cabin?
