Wow Oct 29, that's f'n early! Good job!

Smokindave, I see your from Malakwa. I'm thinkin about a backcountry cabin over the holidays up around there. Can you recomend one that would sleep 8 or more?

Thanks for your help

Yes There is a lodge 3km. east of Sicamous that caters to sledders only.14 beds in a beautiful lodge with a full shop.They have hot tub pool table and one big mother of a bbq. It is owned by a local named Rene St.Onge that knows the mountains between Sicamous and Revy.His specialty is Eagles Pass with Turtle mountain just a short ride away.
In my opinion this is the best sledder oriented place I have ever stayed.
You will not be disapointed.Hope this helps.There # is 250-836-2860 and book your room with Manny she will look after you better than your Mom.
Cheers,
Dave

If you are serious PM me for pictures

Thanks for the reply SmokinD. That lodge sounds sweet, but I'm thinking of a backcountry hut style cabin. Something like the Dave White hut but where they allow sledding. Where we would bring in our own food and sleeping gear etc...
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Silent Pass style

Like the cabin at Silent Pass?

Ya kinda like Silent Pass(McMurdo) but maybe not quite as ghetto! We wanna bring the ladies in; knowhatI'msayin.

Plus we have friends comin in from Vernon so somewhere between Revy and Sicamous would be ideal.
