2011/12 Big Horns North/South snow conditions

I think 14A is now closed. We drove back from duck hunting last night and the gate was down on lovell side. Drove to lovell and the sign that says 14A closed ahead was down and light was flashing. Not sure why they closed it now. Thought they would wait till the end of the month when the elk area closed.

to confirm wysteph... yes it is true 14a is closed for the winter
 
wind

The wind blew today, its settingin up, I found it to be better trailering south from burgess junction about ten miles then riding from one of the parking areas.
Probably can find some good if you stay in the trees lots of landmones as you all know
This is down south a ways

Rode Saturday to put some break-in miles on, nobody there, gate is closed, parking lot has zero snow..highway about the same until you get to the top. Snow is pretty thin where we ride. Get back in the trees and coulees and it get's pretty deep but no base and rocks/stumps everywhere. Need some good dumps before you can just ride.
 
was up 11/26 11/27 what a difference a week can make. the wind and warm temps have made for very poor riding. pretty much have to stay tree side.:face-icon-small-fro all the ridges and open areas are blown away . i would not recommend traveling to the horns until it snows again.
 
Thursday

Well i hope it snows as theres a couple of us planning on coming out this week. Prob leave Wednesday. Ride Thursday-Saturday. Let me know if anyone wants to show us the spots!!!!! lol Thanks
 
On the way

Wednesday and Wedneday Night They could get up too 17 inches, should be good! http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?site=byz&smap=1&textField1=44.809727&textField2=-107.803498

You going to go up by burgess? I want to go if they get any decent snow, the only thing that is gonna hurt this storm is the wind, but its looking good maybe we can ride together
 
Gonna see how this storm pans out, if its good I'll be up on Fri. night to ride Sat. / Sun., looks like I'm probably traveling solo so would be interested in meeting up also. How'd the base set up over the last week?

I hope it is all that was forecasted! My dad has told me multiple times that usually when it snows good on the mountain it doesnt snow down here and vice versa... They have forecasted 6 inches here and we only got like an hour snowshower with very little accumulation so maybe that will be true with this storm and pound up there. Check the bear lodge website becuase usually they post snow totals after a decent storm.

Also digger18 if i am up i would show you around as well... will be on the sled in my pic

Right as i posted the last one i just seen on facebook that Lodges of The Bighorn Mountains just posted on their facebook about an hour ago that they had 12'' of new snow at deer haven lodge... Good news!!!

And they also said that the ski resort would be open friday-sunday for those of you who like to only go down hill.

Meadow Lark Ski Resort opened last weekend!! It was good, quite a bit of snow!! I might just ride the South Side this weekend!!!
 
Will have to see what the storm brings, i know a guy that rode over there a couple weeks ago and said it wasnt bad, but just from snotels there is more snow and probably a better base on the north end. But maybe have to ride each one day to see :face-icon-small-ton
