I have no idea man, this is my first time going to Revy. I think you would have an easier time figuring it out than us seeing as you are local to the area. I would guess we are going to spend most of our 3 days in Boulder Mtn.

heres what i found

Turtle Mountain: Access from Boulder Mountain Kirkup trail. Non-groomed trail and steep mountain access. Large powder riding area with large variety of terrain. Recommended for experienced riders.
Eagle Pass: Access via Turtle Mountain or Sicamous. Large riding area with several lakes, powder hill climbs and lots of fun tree riding. Access can be difficult. Please watch for and obey signs to stay on trail.

Does anyone know the area very well? whos guiding the sleding trip?

No idea, I have never been all the way into Turtle... it was totally socked in the last time we tried to follow some guys in and got lost in the fog... It was some rough trail, some technical stuff and some deep trenches/luge trails just to get where we got (about half way in I think).

I'm coming up from central Washington, U.S. lol:beer;

If all you 900 guys don't mind I would like too hook up with you all on your trip to Revy.
I do ride a Yamaha but I did own a Polaris once...lol
I do know the riding areas around Revy and would be more than happy to show you guys around.
I will keep reading this thread as we get closer to the ride and can meet you all there in Revy.
I was there last weekend and the conditions are excellent.
Here are a couple of pics from last weekend,not from Boulder though,these pics are from "Boulder"...lol

Looks like you got some awesome weather there, good to see:D

That would be great to meet up and ride with someone who really knows the area much much better than I do and as always, great to put a new face to the name:face-icon-small-hap

I'm getting excited... only 1 week and we'll be arriving in Revy for a great time:D:D

Just how fast are you moving in that video? Sounds like you are barely even running that thing and the scenery is flying by.

I am probally hitting 50mph or so,as the boost starts building it starts picking up speed fast.
It is much better when the snow is deeper,then you can actually hold the throttle to the bar for longer,its a lot of fun.
