Snowmobiling

Wavey Lake Ride - Jan 5th

First official ride of the New Year.  Hey everyone, where were you?
Only 4 riders came out to enjoy the day. Weather and conditions were way better than most people thought they would be.
Welcome to new members, Val & Dori, first ride with the club.

Started out at the Wavey Lake Road. Haven't been in this area for awhile due to logging.
The first 8 km or so had been plowed but there was fresh snow over it.
Headed to the bottom of the burn area, over to Hager, and out towards Taweel Road.
Stayed mainly on the logging roads and ended up coming back out at Cow Camp without going on any trails??  Don't know how that happened.
Obviously new roads from logging last year.

Have to go back out to this area and explore some more and see what happened to our trails.



Lunch break, no stucks. Good snow conditions. Bring on winter!!

Snow Conditions at Interlakes

We've been getting lots of emails from people coming up for the holidays and wondering whether to bring their sleds.
It snowed most of the day on Sun. Dec, 12th.  Also some new snow again this morning.
There's a good 5 inches of new snow on top of a frozen layer with at least another 5 inches of snow under that ice layer.
Snow is good in the higher elevations.
Are the trails good to ride?  Our club hasn't been on any trails yet.  Might still be sparse in the treed areas but hopefully more snow coming this week.  Logging roads will be good.
Lakes are NOT safe to go on yet.  Still open water on some area lakes.
