We are heading that way on Sunday morning. Plan to ride Mon- Thur. Might not be the best ever but if you look at what we have in MN there is lots of white gold out there. Nope might not be epic, but we can still ride.
Just have to look at the posative side of it........ better than sitting at the desk next week!!

I'm with ya Rocketboy. We will be getting there on Sunday as well and riding through Thursday. We were all dreaming of endless powder but it is better than riding on grass over here in Illinois. Although it is snowing now here just so we can have some crappy roads to drive on tomorrow morning. Let's just hope we luck out with our timing and we get a couple of dumps while we're there. That happened to us two years ago in March. Arrived at Ten Mile to a muddy parking lot but woke up next morning to 18 inches
Forecast
Dan,
What does the forecast look like at the middle to end of next week? Heading out from Elburn, Illinois on Thu. the 31st. Is snow southwest of Albany any good, or should we head northwest? Do we need to go even northwest of the Widowmaker?
Thanks.

Snow moving out of the Eastern U.S. late Friday...will pick up in the West on Saturday.
On Saturday, snow will pick up over the Coastal Ranges, Great Basin and Rockies while rain falls along the west coast. Central California will get some much needed precipitation from this system. The heaviest snowfall amounts will be found in the highest terrain. Some of the highest terrain in the Coastal Ranges and Central Rockies could receive up to two feet of snow over the next few days.

Looks like a chance all thru the week, Monday probably the best shot, we'll see. To be honest I haven't gone towards Albany all year, hopefully someone will chime in.
Talked to some fellas last night at the BT, we got maybe 4"s thur afternoon. They we asking where to head, right now it's tough, but I pointed 'em west of Queally. You can challenge yourself with some technical stuff in the trees and drains w/o the fear of dropping in somewhere you can't climb back out of.
I believe we're at something like 44% of normal
so I guess we take what we can get.
Have you been out?
Cool tear it up
looks like its time to make a road trip west.
