Haven't been there , but elsewhere, snow conditions are very sketchy, not even good snow shoeing.

There's not much snow out west at all. Quad with tracks might be the best choice for a west county "sled". Lots of grass and bare ground.

Yea the snow conditions out that way are not awesome. I went for a drive on Thursday, lots of wind blown /grass showing. Hard and crusty where there is pockets of snow.

Pretty unfortunate. Been a rough few years for snow pack lately. Would be nice to go for a ride though some hills without having to load up and drive through to golden/revelstoke occasionally

I have found that area to get the best dumps of snow in the spring.

Yea for sure. I’m headed to McBride on the 17th, have to go FIND the snow haha. Golden was awesome two weeks ago but I heard they got rain recently.

Hopefully still some fresh there for you. I planned to go to revy next weekend too but ended up having to replace my well pump a couple days ago. So much for that spending money.
