Has anyone ordered snow yet? I look at the weather forecast and it's like 60 degrees every day. GRRRRRR. A little 6' dump would make me smile.

You asked.......

Grand mesa this morning

7 more sleeps until we leave. There are 4 of us coming. Myself with my brand shiney new Viper XTX, an XF7000, a Pro R switchback and my poor son with an 08 ski do 600. His track is going to be too small but if it wont work he will have to rent something.

Look forward to meeting every one. How many others are going?

Todays pic from Grand Mesa, doesn't it make you want to knock the snow off those trees?

Unfortunately last year when Shagman and NOS-PRO were here the snow was half that level or so.

Well we are loaded and ready to leave at 5am Tuesday morning. Hoping to get to the Lodge at around noon Wednesday.

Made it safe and sound back to Winnipeg where there is 2" of snow. We had a great time, met some very nice people and rode more snow than I ever have before even though they say the 5' was disappointing. I would do it in a heartbeat again. Thanks Bill and Dianne for organizing it and being an awesome tour guide. Chad, Justin, Jacob and Rob, I would ride with you guys anytime.

We went east of the lodge Saturday where the rocks were on Thursday and got stuck in the trail where it drifted in!
