Snowed Saturday & Sunday, probably approx 6" up top.
Monday was bluebird Heaven!
Honestly, I had a great time.
No over the hood powder, but a real fun trip!

Went for a quick ride this morning before work, had a fun time. I bet there's plenty of fun to be had west of the peaks. We rode some wind blown areas closer to the trail, near Libby Flats, fresh snow ranged from non-existent to ~12" or so. Worth your time to go have some fun and get off the couch! Sorry, no pics taken.

So snow is high moisture and a shot at above freezing temps this weekend before another shot at snow next week. Come Monday will it be spindle deep or still be bumper deep maybe in the trees etc?

Went out today. Tons of trailers at Greenrock. We found some great stuff, bumper deep and over the hood in some trees.
We decided to trail ride back to the trailer and the trails were terrible Also everything within site of the trail was hammered too.

Trail is absolutely blasted but i saw the groomer out when we were loading up around 630 or so. Hopefully they take a lap around.

We only made it up in time for about an hour ride today. Mostly just making sure sleds were running good for tomorrow. Would anyone care to give me some general direction of where the powder is deepest going from greenrock?

We went a few miles up trail to the north and found good soft powder but barely covered the spindles. It felt like 20 inches that settled to 12ish with firm base underneath. Go anywhere for the most part.

I know its deeper we just gotta find it.

nice!
Is one in your group a pilot?
That would sure make multiple trips more practical!
(Shively Field is very nice for a small community)

Nice pics Toggy,.......turbo Lance?

Good eye Dan. 4000 Total time 900 on the 540. It has good paint and interior. Has a Garmin 430 but will have to be updated for ADS-B. Weather sucked Friday, we squeaked in, a King Air 90 went missed on the first try and got in on the second.
