Thats to bad. I love going up there. It just seems like the snow is not the greatest there anymore. We stayed at BearLodge last year and seemed fine.

It has been for sale for a couple of years now.
Probably five or six years. The whole place is pretty much used up unfortunately.
Looking for a ride report for the Burgess Junction area, anyone been up there lately? Headed up Friday the 14th for 3 days. It’s been 4 years since I’ve been to the Northern Bighorns.
Also looking for any report on snow/avy conditions. Ive seen some pictures and looks like they have gotten alot of snow in the last week or so. Be heading that way on Saturday for a 5 day trip.
Was up feb 1 to feb 7 at bear lodge. Snow ok when got there nothing great but we got 6" on 2nd day and then a foot 2days later and that really improved conditions. I believe it's been snowing almost every day since we left. Should be awesome up there if weather reports are accurate
Thanks for the update
We rode there 2/6-2/9. About 17" additional snow while we were there. Armpit deep most of the time when we got stuck. Bluebird day Sunday when we had to leave of course.
I would guess avalanche conditions are still elevated. They went a while with not much snow, then received 2 decent dumps. We saw a few natural slides, but stayed away from those areas. Pushed a lot of snow when going down hills.

Is anyone doing sled rentals near Burgess still? Heard that the place we used to get them was maybe gonna close but not sure.

Bear lodge had ski doo 850 154 for sure when we were there a week ago. I believe they have polaris and artic cats also but not positive
Any riding since the heat wave?
Any updates on the Northern Big Horns? Thinking about going out March 15-18.

Just got back from Bear lodge - Rode Monday Feb. 24 - Fri. Feb. 28. Excellent riding across the mountain with bumper deep powder found in trees/ravines in the right places if willing to dive or sidehill in. You will likely need to search a little harder now than we did as I am sure the weekend riders and warmth scratched up the easy to find cuts, but given the large area, you should have no problem finding good riding if willing to get off the beaten path. Definitely lots of stuck possibilities in about any direction. We spent a lot of time digging and pulling!
Come on winter we need another blast here base looks good my bag is packed and sleds ready.
