Pretty much any direction! Big sky trail got groomed a couple of days ago, but the creek crossing got busted open. This can't be a mid-west sled, they are experts at crossing water!? Hopefully this video loaded ok, this was up in Cabin area on Christmas Eve.

that video was from christmas eve? how much snow did they get in west yellowstone that day? heading to west yellowstone tomorrow night staying at three bears lodge where is the best riding in west yellowstone? its our first time there looking for deep snow in the trees and hills thanks
We have always stayed at the goldenwest motel with kurt and shel. They have a heated garage if you have troubles with sled you can go in there and work on your sled. You can ride out from anywhere in town just stay off the state highways, ( the only plowed roads in town). Prolly 20-30 minutes to the hills depending on which direction you go.
Ok out here but could use a good storm or two soon.

Taylor and Bill were out yesterday with a couple of crews. Taylor reported lots of sledders out there tearing up the powder that is left from the Christmas Eve storm, but plenty to find off the beaten path. Bill, unfortunately was stuck to the trail most of the day as his group ran out of talent after the first part of the day but still managed to find some great play areas off the trail system. Not much for pictures except this one from Taylor in Upper Tepee! Sounds like over all still some great riding to be had, just need to know how get to it. Time for the "Eraser" storm to bring some fresh snow and erase tracks.

secret spots
Everyone always finds their own secret spots, but I am always hesitant to go into them on days where there is huge amounts of sledders around. I think people just naturally follow other tracks and then your honey holes are found out. Most of the spots I have found have been completely on accident. Hopefully the 7-10 day outlook is completely wrong and we get some snow to cover up all the ruts and tracks. The beaver slide looked like a 6 year olds etch a sketch the other day...

I guess I've reached my maximum on the posting for this thread... Need to pay to post conditions and help folks out at this point...HMMM, I guess a new thread is in order? Well, for those that can read this post. Tracked up except for technical tree lines and off the beaten (know where you are going) path. Need some fresh!
