Hope this storm plays out. Might have to go up on Tuesday. Even with 18" of new snow, it will still be dangerous to get too far off the trails.
Hopefully thats just the first round looks like snow for the next 5 to 6 days.:rockon::rockon:

We are thinking of coming out December 6th. How are things looking so far? I'm assuming off trail is still pretty risky?
Keep it coming

Winds are expected to really begin increasing late tonight and to continue through much of Tuesday. High Wind Warnings have been issed for the mountains and areas west of the Laramie Range from 3 AM through midnight Tuesday. The Laramie Valley and lower elevations of Laramie County (Cheyenne) will also see these strong winds a little later. High Wind Warnings have been posted for these areas from 8AM thru 8PM Tuesday.

I think its still snowing with just a little bit of wind.
I think its still snowing with just a little bit of wind.
That is called "light & variable" winds.
This will for sure create some heavy snow loads ontop of the east facing hills. Be carefull of slides.
We are going to ride friday and saturday. Anyone have recent pics of snow conditions?

We went for a night ride in centennial last night (Monday) . It was stupid crazy dumb retarded windy. So maybe the snow will harden up. I bounced off a few little rocks but the tree riding is decent, you definitely won't be climbing anything . That's about all the info I have . Snotel is reading 36" at sand lake (above centennial)

Hey Iowa_Assault let us know how the riding was when you get back. We are heading out from Iowa next Thursday to ride for a couple days and would love a fresh report.
Will do alumacraft3
Has anyone ridden yesterday or today? What are conditions like? We are on our way now and will be riding tomorrow and Saturday
