2011/12 Big Horns North/South snow conditions

[Ryan-41]

I'm thinking of coming out to the bighorns at the end of march or early April and was wondering where a good place to stay/rent would be? Thanks for info

The last two years we have had the major storms in April or May! Last year I rode in like 3 feet of fresh in April!!!

Where you up on Sunday too? If so, does your sled have a green skid plate? There was an orange 1000 that helped me roll my kids m7 over and I let him take my TM8 for a spin. Wondering if it was you?

We rode the South side Sunday and it was incredible.

Wow what a weekend! Rode the south side saturday behind deer haven and it was deep, no base at all was tough to get around, my dads pro 163 was getting stuck! Went above sheridan sunday and found some dang good snow as well. Didnt see anybody most the day until we came across the search party. Glad they found the missing couple from Dayton! Here are a few pictures and some amateur videos taken off my digital camera (next purchase will be a helmet cam!)

Nice drops. Cornice and rock jumps are a blast in this deep snow! Looks like fun.

I havent heard about this, yes very sad to hear. But x2 on what happened? Any more details?

 

[doomama800]

Guy somehow drove his sled into a ravine and broke his neck he was from Oregon. Right along the hwy. Like I said it happens any time any where to anyone just need to think about this type of thing. Sorry for him and his family.

 

[Ryan-41]

He and his family and friends are in my prayers!!! Sorry to hear this...Sad news!

 

[polaris dude]

Has anyone been up since the weekend? Hows the snow gonna look by saturday? I heard it was supposed to get warm hopefully it doesn't settle too much!

 

[SledGuru]

I was up wed 2/29 and it had set up some there is still good riding tho and some deep spots (mostly in the trees )

 

[shelbwyo]

Good news is that the forecast is looking good from now till the weekend.

 

[Diggersdandies]

How is it?

Sorry to bother, but only come out west once or twice a year. First trip sucked so really want to be certain. Will the Horns be pretty good next week, March 8? Thanks for your help.
