Rode sat/sun at frisby/boulder and the snow was DEEP. obvious spots are tracked out but get off the beaten path a little and you will be rewarded.

is it still sketchy up there for hitting rocks and stuff?

There are still areas to stay away from.... especially if you are not familiar with the area. A few friends broke stuff on the trail, rocks being exposed.

Rode Keystone Friday, only 5 of us it was deep... but being 3rd in line I was uncovering alot of trees and rocks still.....

Be careful 2 skis down....

 

[revyrider]

im headed up to revy friday. just wondering what the snow conditions are like

 

[cortez]

was up last saturday (nov27th) and it was deep.. lots of snow in most places, several feet of fresh powder ontop of a decent base.. that being said i would still avoid any humps or bumps in the snow that look suspect.. otherwise you will be like me, rebuilding your front end after your 3rd ride of the season.

Three us planning to ride Revelstoke area Monday to Thursday 6th to 9th and would like to join another small group.

 

[Prairie Dog]

Rode Boulder Thurs and Frisby today.........yes if you're from the prairies there is a lot of snow. But what you have to remember is if we have 5ft of snow at home thats an incredible winter........out here there's 5ft of snow covering 9ft of rock.

It's not nearly enough.....yes you can ride but be careful!!!!! I've been coming out here for 6yrs and have never ever seen rocks and trees showing like this. If it wasn't for new mods to the sled I wouldn't be riding yet. Boulder/Frisby need another 4ft+ of snow to have really good conditions.

If you do come out be careful. We saw more than one sled be flown off the mountain in the last two days cause of hitting a rock. The snow is bottomless and soft but like I said.....there's 4ft of snow covering 9ft rocks.

 

[Prairie Dog]

Rode Boulder today.....got farther back into the Meadows. Snow was way more set up today. Awesome snow in the meadows but had to really watch for creeks and rocks. It's really tracked up right now tho. Never wrecked anything but me and my riding partner each hit a few rocks and trees. Need some more snow!!!!

 

[mxracer78]

rode sale mountain today

rode sale mountain today...lots of rocks under the snow, be careful...there are a few nice areas to play in, some great powder in a bowl north of the tower, and a nice hill to climb on the east side of the tower(no rocks)...don't go down to the lake, it's gonna take you forever to try to get out.

 

[TheGuyX]

Rode Frisbee today. Really Beaten down. You can find some snow, but you have to go north of the Green Tower. And my first day on my new Summit X Etec. So much power, scares me.

 

[mxracer78]

rode frisby as well today, there was some amazing powder just northeast of the upcoming caribou closures, once we dropped down, it was hard to get back out. the creeks are still visible in some spots.

theguyx, were you on the black summit x?

 

[sledhed88]

[evil1]

heres a couple teasers from the weekend,,down backside of bullpen on boulder,,had great time but still very dangerous out there,,both of us came away with front end damage,,and from what i saw there were alot of sleds on the bottom of a chopper

 

[evil1]

Yep, and my partner ( son in-law ) on the M8 Sno Pro. We don't know this area and starting about 1800 Meters, we got lost in the clouds. We played around as best as we could and then spent a bit trying to find our way back. Thanks to my GPS we were able to find the trail again. Tomorrow, we are going back with my son in the group on a new Polaris 800 RMK. We are hoping for a bit more snow, visibility and are just going to go North as much as we can. With all these posts, we are going to stay out of boulder and maybe try it on Friday it it dumps a bunch.
Hoping for lots of snow in the next few days.
