Rider Reports

3/07/2020 - Decent Spring riding, nothing to brag about, but it's nice to venture off the ordinary paths and see new areas. Yesterday (3/13) we did find 8-12" inches of new snow, but it was hero snow. Enough to play in, but not enough to worry about getting stuck in.


3/07/2020 - Nice weather for exploring, but pretty settled conditions everywhere we went. Still better than a day at the office, but had to work fairly hard to unsettled/untouched snow. Hope you guys get the storm coming next week. We'll be back with the family in two weeks regardless!


2/22/2020 - Best conditions we've ever had in the Snowies! Good powder once you get away from where everyone else goes. Bumper-ish deep everywhere we played on the back side. Front side felt a little sticky with the sun getting to it. And, if you can believe it, visibility for MILES! That was honestly one of the best parts...being able to go anywhere and not worrying about seeing our way home. Thanks Old Corral crew!
