You got that right Wade, a lot of snow!!! We just got back from there and there's no way we're running either trail next weekend, unless you got 35's and lockers Brandon has a couple pics from today he'll put up later So now what.... We can either keep these trails and postpone the run for like a month ;D Or we can change the trails We were thinking Kemptown and Greenfield We ran Kemptown last weekend and it's passable Not 100% stock friendly but can be stock doable with a tug here and there The only real tough spots for stock rigs would be a couple spots with deep ruts, but if you ride on the tops or dog track and giver it might be ok That and the little hill in the video which is really not a hard hill, just a lot of snow drifted in I just posted a short video of Kemptown in the pics section As for Greenfield, we'd have to check it out Anyone up for a quick run tomorrow to check the trail? Greenfield can be fun There's some good obstacles, and bypasses for most There's also a big pit and the end of Greenfield, if we run Kemptown first, where we could have the BBQ Let me know what you think

I was up to Moncton 2 weekends ago and there was heavy snow then. That last storm we had, we have friends that LIVE at Folley Lake and they where plowed out 3 times in 1 day. There will be snow there until late May. We used to do a run from Bass River to Springhill each spring(late April early May) and we would be into snow 3-5 ft deep then fall into mud 10 ft away, then back into snow again. The mountain is complete different world this time of year. Maybe I'll have bigger tires by then.

We did brakeline last year at this time with no snow at all up there but it was also 15-20 degrees out.

Are those pictures taken going in from the bottom?
The snow must have been pretty snotty eh?
Bummer about the runs next week, I would love to join the gang but I just can't afford to go any further than Wentworth, I have a bent up tie rod and I cringe driving on pavement any distance.
