Cooke City MT conditions

[skicopper]

I am pleased to report that Cooke City received a ton of snow over the weekend. And for anyone interested the beartooth hwy between 296 and Cooke City is now impassible. They are plowing down hwy 212 to the west from 296 a few miles to a parking lot, after that it’s unplowed. These are from Sat 11/11, and it was DEEP!

This weekend was a blast. I was so happy to wake up at 5am, look out the window and see our sleds just covered and plenty of fresh up top!

read the bearclaw report, he updates every day. Also checkout MTavalanche.com they do the report every day now and usually has some pretty meaningful info regarding snowpack and weather and obviously good info to be fresh on as well.

I have been reading it everyday and looking at the snotel sites. I was just curious if anyone had info that had actually rode their lately. Thanks for the info.

You'll want to go through Gardiner, MT and drive into town.

It is really up to you. If you can deal with not having your truck and trailer with you, it is quicker to drive to parking lot and ride in.

We had 2 crews a week ago at Cooke. One drove to town the other to the pilot creek parking lot. We left town at the same time. The crew that rode to parking lot was about 1.5hrs ahead of the crew that went through the park - we were going back to MN

Unless something has changed or you find a random to take you out, I don’t believe there are any.

Might be worth while starting a separate post; saying when going and how many in your group and seeing if anyone will let you tag along.

Or...there has to be some trail maps at the local buinesses?

Cooke is pretty easy to find good stuff to ride or just go to Miners Saloon you'll find someone to show you around.
