Give me details of what I missed. Would have enjoyed meeting turtleheads and sandman and others. Only positive from today are sleds r out, still feel like s$&t though. Next weekend I'm back

the only bad thing about today was the fact that ten foot stubs in the logging units are now right under the surface. i had a pretty good yard sale from hitting one, but other than that it was epic!!!

snow has set nicely, no snorkel needed but still deep! coverage is great in most places but would still avoid any bumps in the snow. luckily we had no carnage today, can't wait to head back out in the morning

 

[number9t]

snow had set for sure, thankfully; i got stuck enough today, were you out at deer mtn today?

Joel,

Thanks for the pictures. I would have thought the trenches would have been deeper on top of Whaleback.

Why didn't you hook up with Ted and Sandman?

Snow this week so next weekend tracks should be covered.

Rode today with a great bunch of guys. Snow is still great. Got so warm you could darn near ride in a t-shirt, so it won't last long. some sluffing on Ash Creek so be careful out there.

 

[Kale]

Awesome day of riding. Sun, powder and good friends. Rode with Dave and Mary from Roseburg, and my riding partners Phil and Ken. Doesn't get much better than today. Hit the eddy's with no tracks. Lots of downed trees made certain routes difficult but we managed because of the amount of snow we have. A few pics:

The Gang on Beer Can Hill

Phil busting the powder

Little Picayune Powder
