Have you heard how the snow is?
crooked creek?????????? why not tog pass better snow
We have a friend that ownes a cabin next door so we will be staying up there and riding that way everyday, is the snow good to the south at all??
Riding is great around Union. Line shack, and crooked creek both open with bar services. The warming huts are in place at strawberry and green river with plenty of wood to burn, (thanks snokaters!). Groomed trails with TONS of places to get stuck off trail. You can ride all the way to lava, brooks lake, and tog if you want good groomed trail system right now. Gas is available at crooked creek, line shack, and lava mountain. The riding south of Union, towards strawberry shelter and eventually pinedale side is really good right now. Out there its pretty remote so make sure you have plenty of gas and oil. I guarentee you'll find powder over your hood in most off trail areas. Don't forget your shovel! heh
Yep I hear snow is a whole lot better towards togwotee
If you like seeing groups of people, and meeting people from all over the united states park at tog lodge and ride the cd around there. If you want to be a zealot, then head south towards union peak, table top mountain and their treed steeps and approaches. Everyone has their preferences though, and Isolation is mine. What I love about Union peak is that snow melts into the pacific ocean as well as the gulf of mexico because of the intersecting continential divide. Things to wrap your mind around when riding Union.
