hey hogwild, Chetwynd is a pretty good spot. closer for us northern AB guys to hit, you are about the same distance from there as you are from Valemount. we usually try to hit it during the week and have the whole place to ourselves, kinda weird sledding and not seeing anybody else all day! we were there on Dec 5th and 6th, the first day it was all ours and not a track anywhere, bright sunny day and the first ride on the new sled. that was about as close to heaven as I'll ever get.... biggrin.gif

we went back just before xmas on the 22nd and 23rd, it was some of the deepest powder I have ever rode in but the visibility sucked. we hung out in the meadows and trees 'docking all day, again never saw another sled where we were.

later in the year closer to spring you can go for miles back into the bowls, some great long climbs and nice scenery. hope to drag you along with us one day.... right_on.gif

lol....too much, I'm going monday or tuesday to pick up a new 24' Triton from Martin's in the city, ordered it in October.

Im not 100% sure yet what kind Im getting,still doing some tire kicking.One thing I have been told is to get a hard wall if you are going to be doing any off road camping with them in the summer.The aluminum side trailers scratch up very easily where the hard walls dont. As well as you want to make sure that there are no wheelwells inside the trailer because they are a pain when loading sleds.I have heard that Triton is a nice trailer.

Hey Guys . Get off work march 21st morning, that day is kind of screwed, but could drive where ever and find a place to stay and sled till the afternoon of the 24th, have to be back @ work 26th. I am not a extreme sledder or a professional hill climber, but like to play in the powder, only been to mountains once and that was this year, but willing to travel 6 to 8 hrs.Chetwyne [spelling ?] area should still be good then ?
Let me know, heading to my property north of nipawin sask from the 10th to the 16th, they still have 4 ft of snow there,so it should be a blast.
