Bottomless doesn't quite explain the snow we found up there yesterday. Step off your sled and you were surely going down. Sure made it a pain for getting unstuck. It isn't tracked up to much I think most people were content with follow the leader because of the snow conditions. Not us! there were 3 of us and once all three of us were stuck at the same time! You don't have to go far off the trail and through a few trees and you will find areas that have not been touched. I am sure we didn't find them all! We were at the Porcupine Falls sign at 2:45 and I made the comment we would be back to the truck in a half hour, we got back at 4:15. I never was to good at direct routes.
Hey guys and gals..
We are getting dumped on again. We are getting snowed on big time again, 12-18 inches last night and it is still snowing......this is looking like it is going to be a fantastic year...

Darrell how did the hand work out? Was a good day wasn't it, didn't take any pics but took some video. Snow is good when you leave the wind blown areas.

great videos Todd--hand is healing up pretty good--was pretty sore after 50 miles of riding but should be better each week---ride safe--see you on the mountain
Snow was great this weekend, found acres of fresh and deep.
I'm in the Cody area, and I'm pretty new at this - if any of you more experienced folk want some company on a ride, drop me a line. I'm always looking for a chance to learn and ride with new people. I'm self-employed, so my schedule's flexible - let's ride!
