S.E. Idaho, who's riding this weekend and where?

MountainPowder · Dec 12, 2007

I am going to get my first ride in this weekend!

Where is everyone going this weekend? Where is there enough snow for even a trail ride?

Anyone ridden Preston area yet? Anywhere closer to Pocatello than Island Park?

cookiecutter · Dec 12, 2007

Not sure about close to Pocatello..but if yer ever riding up Island Park way let me know, always like meeting new people, and i also ride a 670

gotta love em!

hope your ride turns out good!

Some of my buddies tried to ride preston Sunday. They said they hit every rock on the road, not enough snow yet.

I am riding Island Park both Saturday and Sunday. I havent been able to keep the ski's on the ground yet so it should be interesting.

Does anybody know if they are grooming anything up there??

800 RMK · Dec 13, 2007

yeah they were grommed last weekend

I went up to eight mile ( Soda Springs) last friday. not too bad for a road ride. We got more snow since then so I might go again tomorrow.

Was up to bone yesterday and drove all the way to blackfoot res. in 2 wheel drive in the jeep. Tops there is 6 in on the ground up there. Its going to take a couple of BIG storms before its ridable.

Reaper, where did you ride out of in Preston?

80, how much snow was there at 8 mile.

Snowing now in Pocatello, hopefully it will hang over the area all day!

tgoodwin · Dec 13, 2007

Franklin Basin is still a no-go, only about a foot. Soda's a little better maybe 2 feet. I've seen people heading up to Inman but can't imagine there's more that 6-12 inches in the parking lot, maybe a couple feet up high. Right now if you want the snow you've got to head to I.P. or into Wyoming. I'm dieing to get into some steep and deep, what the hell's the point in buying a new sled if you can't use it for what it's made.

I didn't ride Preston, my buddies did. They unloaded up top at copenhagen.

I road copenhagen sat. and in to Paris meadows and alot of rocks on the road. unless we get at least another 1' before this weekend you woun't see me going. Then it will still be, just a road ride. The snow marker on the steeps is at a foot and a half.

MountainPowder · Dec 14, 2007

Any word on Soda the last couple of days? Looks like we're heading to 8-mile in the morning, finally getting out

80 ponies · Dec 14, 2007

I wasnt able to go up 8-mile today. Buddys bailed on me so I thought i would go up pebble (other side of Inman) rode up to the campground where there is only about 6-8" on the picnic tables. And it was all fluff

Really thin at the bottom, but better than expected up top. Great first day!

ODLEONSNOW · Dec 15, 2007

I saw each one thru the window.
Good Snow

80 ponies · Dec 16, 2007

dam, there is alot more up there than when I went.

Georgetowncanyonman · Dec 16, 2007

Went with MountainPowder!

My back is sore! All that break-dancing on the seat, did it! I was happy to be riding in 2-3ft of powder! I think we hit the sweet spot- finding all that powder! It was still snowing on top when we left! We were going to ride Inman, but we are glad we changed our mind!
