Jan 20/14 - Photos from the trees in Limestone then Jerome's Bowl areas

Thought I would get you guys some photos posted. This is from Saturday. Hope everyone has checked out the avy bulletin and is searching out the snow in the trees and staying off the faces as avalanches are big and heavy right now. Flathead trail is in really good shape and our trail is holding up really well too even though temps have been warmish and we have had lots of traffic on it. Watch for moose on the trail - I had two pop out on me and the guys said that down the pipeline (where its getting pretty roughish) they had one pop out there too - eyes up gang. Nine Mile up Alexander was super reactive on the weekend per reports from sledders up there and from Zacs Tracs video on the South Rockies Forcaster's blog so keep an eye out if you are headed that direction and stick to low angled slopes. Castle was supposed to be pretty good but has seen a bunch of riders as of late. I believe last year we went almost a month with no new snow and a bunch of areas were getting ridden out - might be in for a touch of that - the close stuff will see the most action but if you hunt I don't think you have to go far to find decent snow. Adjust your expectations though - not much big pow to be found just yet - it is likely in "secret places" far off the beaten path. We have a lot of work this week so I may not have a bunch of info for ya on my blog. I will try to update it if weather or riding conditions info comes in. Til then....ride safely and "know before you go". Cheers - V
