powder

What about the likes of Susan lake, gorman, hospital? Never rode there. Would they be suitable for beginners?

Tumbler Ridge! You can sled there all year long, but the best powder's in January.

powder

I would prefer not to drive 18hours!

Last year we found some great powder and no crowds at Castle but it can depend on the year. Watch the condition reports here. http://www.skicastle.ca/

Gorman can be pretty challenging especially if there's lotsa POW.Quartz would be easier riding but if you've gone that far might as well head to Revy.

 

[DARKO]

Yorkton gets the deep pow !!

 

[Trukker]

Easy there Darko,they get the best Garlic Sausage but all the POW is up just north of the garlic curtain in Hudson Bay!

I dunno man, I had my 76 moto-ski stuck in a foot of windblown drift in the ditch just past Yorkton.

Those were the good ol' days. hehe

 

[Trukker]

cuz some BC boys can't keep a secret! lol

Seriously though tumblers cool for new riders. Haven't rode PK or the red deer but i'd rather ride valemount or revy then hassler, bullmoose or the shack. Those three areas are great fun on a 440. On a 1200 I'd rather be somewhere where the snow gets deeper than my ankles before it turns to concrete.

Yorkton gets the deep pow !!

lets not forget Fort Qu'appelle, SK for all those hillclimbers out there, the nasty 350ft rise is quite a challenge.

golden has a couple of places. quartz is very accessible and good for all catagories of riders. try blaeberry as well. here's a website for golden.

could honestly care less how many people go in there as long as everyone plays by the rules, stays outa the closed areas and buys trail passes. We need proof of use to keep er open!
