I would say no, but it depends on how much snow you have or don't have locally. We haven't had much new snow for a week+ We were supposed to get hit the past few days but it all went by to the north of us.



I’ve got 3 inches in the front yard! A few of us thought of heading out Wednesday to chase the snow, but since there’s absolutely no snow anywhere, might just have to hold off for a few more weeks to ride.

The snow depth is good, but there are more people than I've ever seen in the 20 years of coming out here.
There is no snow forecast over the next several days, and it's already tracked up in places we normally see very few if any tracks.
We have been able to find good snow but we know the area pretty well.

Just got back from 4 days of riding. Several days of poor visibility hampered us in the beginning. Snow conditions were best last Thursday, before all the wind came in and set alot of stuff up. Areas that were thigh deep when you jumped off your sled became solid and hard packed after gusts of 25mph all throughout. Sunday was our best day of riding, bluebird, but there is a TON of traffic out there and the last storm only left about 3-4" of new snow.

Was up by Togwottee lodge today. Nice 12"fresh right by lodge but not enough to cover tracks and hard snow underneath. We didn't get too far from lodge today so will see what it's like farther out tomorrow. It's also just below freezing so in my opinion too warm.

Just got back from a 5 day outing. They need snow bad, it’s tracked up. We found snow to play in, but rode 20 miles from Togwotee, then as far into the back country as you can. The hills we were around had a weak layer of snow, and would slide easily so we were limited on what to play on.
