Not real great yet.
Dad drove through on Mon, hills were windblown and bare. Haven't heard anything since. Looks like it will be a while still.

Rode up Hogback Wednesday night. Snow was OK. Needs more because we hit a few rocks...nothing broken though.
Rode the pass Thursday afternoon for a while. Definately needs more snow to make it worth a drive from Anchorage. Rode the pipeline from Worthington glacier down to Tsaina valley. Looked nice but had to get back to A-town.

I usually check this website to see thompson pass snow conditions, the guy who posts on it is a skier who does not really like snowmachines. Although he has really usefull info on avy conditions snow depth and weather.

I was at Thompson at the end of March, and it was awesome. The weather blew in though a few days into my trip. Looks like they got a couple good days in since, but now the winds kicked up a day or so ago. Hope it hasn't turned everything into concrete yet. I'll be going back down later this week.

Just got back from the Pass, very wind blown by the hiway, but as soon as you gain elevation it gets great, kinda wet but still great riding, weather was crappy, out of the three days we were there was only one day that the visability good enough that we could get into the good snow.
