I left the guys in charge of the shop today and went for a much needed quality snow ride. Around a foot of fresh in the swamps close to the parking lot, gets a lot deeper further back and in the gulleys where it hasn't been touched. Probably 18-20 inches. I'll post some pictures tomorrow. Still needs another couple feet before the shortcuts can be used easily but was a great ride regardless.
We caused quite a few mini-slides today in the gullies so anyone going back to the Dutch hills, be careful. I snapped a couple pics of those as well, they took all the snow off the hill right down to the bare ground. Buried my buddy's sled pretty good when the ledge came out from under him. Pics tomorrow

I'm going Friday if you don't mind me tagging along.
Anyone know if the road is groomed?
It is groomed, not sure how far though, I don't take the road 
Only got a few pics, I'll post them in a little bit, if you find swamps where no one has been (there are alot) 2-3' of fluffy powder. We went up the front face of the Peters Hills and they were wind blown bad, turned around because we were scraping rocks all the way. I'm betting the back side and the dutch are good if the light cooperates.
Here's one, the camera died before I could get the rest off.
OK lets hear from the guys who rode today. I'm loaded up but still trying to decide if we are going up in the morning or trying another spot.
Matt, it was pretty good. Go to your favorite swamp and forget about the open hills. Anything in the open is pretty wind blown. If you stay in the tree's there is good powder to be had! Its worth the trip! Perfect Blue Bird Day!!!

Pretty good snow in the Petersville area today. Great weather, clear and in the 20's. For those of you riding tomorrow you are in for a good time, enjoy the powder

Fresh untracked powder all day.. That was a great ride 38 miles on the sled!
Surprised there is no base just 3 feet of awesome powder

Dang it, I had to work today. Heading up to the deshka landing in the morning to ride the river. But i might try to talk my riding buddy into heading there instead. My cousins just got back from there and said it was great.... Guess since I'am driving we'll go wherever I take us

That's probably the most snow anywhere in the state....also, that gas cans legit.
5 of us rode on Saturday, great snow in the smaller swamps, wind blown in the large open ones, and for those who care, the trails to get you out there are in great shape. We avoided the road, so I don't know what kind of shape it's in.
Cat get'n out of the water
Help I've fallen and I can't get up
Swamp pounding 800VE
Even the Rev's havin' fun

Could not ask for a better day!!!!
I can never pass on opportunity to take a photo of the Great One....
Why do beavers chew on a spruce trees in a middle of a trail? This could have been MUCH uglier if he was going faster....
