Mar 16/14 - Misty light Rain down here

Morning, we are getting misty light rain down here (no snow mixed in yet) and it looks like it is snowing up top. My guys that rode yesterday decided to go up into Rain Gauge and said there was 15cm of fresh snow over set up base there and they stayed in the tree and were careful crossing avalanche paths. They had a good day but said Limestone was better. They heard one slide come down but did not see it. They loved the groomed Flathead and said it was super smooth and they had it pinned coming back on it. The yard looks "dirty" because we had it scrapped out and sanded but you can see there is plenty of snow on the trail and that is down here at this altitude. Now...do I think you should ride our trail...nope...save your back and time and trailer to be closer to the area you want ride - tis the season. If the trail you ride is groomed then contribute with a trail fee. Temps are +5 right now and suppposed to be +4 all week and snow forecasted all week except for Tuesday which is sunny. Caution, diligence and knowledge all still required as you ride. Anything that hasn't come down should be suspect but that is kind of standard thinking. We installed a boot dryer in each cabin so two guys in each will have dry boots! Cheers - V
