Rode French today. Did the big loop through Thorpe Lake. It was dumping snow up high. Probably about 8" of powder on top of a foot of spring snow. Wasn't bad conditions and didn't look like anyone has been up there in quite some time. We had to make a bridge to get over one of the washouts.
Was up at gallagher a couple weeks ago and all was still good then. Do yourself a favor and skip the jeep trail and go all the way to the single track to get in.
Rode yesterday. 6-7 small dirt patches in the first couple miles of trail, covered the rest of the way up, but it’s thiiiiin until you hit 3500’ or so. Creeks all open. Good spring day
Nice, French been my go to since late 90s, hard to beat. Especially in spring, up knox, you can shoot up the avy path after it’s done its thing and pop over the ridge at top (tight trees) and drop into kachees side and come around…. Fun and rewarding, Lots of loops up there.
Recently been riding new spot, not a usual sno-park trailhead. Starting to see more tracks tho. Ruined my elbow 3 weeks ago up there.
