Snow Report: More Corbin Shots

Check the depth of snow against the tires on the truck. NB: the sled did not leave the flatdeck. This is above the staging area at Corbin at French's cabin - owners of A&E Racing in Brooks. Just hold off guys. Save your sled vacation dollars for mutliple excellent trips after it really snows then put miles on your sled and not on your truck. Check out Elkford north of Sparwood on the SnowandMud.com site - there have been some reports of snow but also broken A-arms there. Worth staying in touch with the locals there though too.

Corbin Snow Report: Dec 11/08

Clayton with Eileen & Archie French with the Corbin Country Club Groomer on Dec 10th. Last year the groomer was out on Dec 6th. This year some locals report 2ft in the bowls with no base. 4-6 inches on the trail. Save your gas and parts budget.

Snow Report Dec 8/08

We only got 3 inches at the Inn last night. We are heading out to Corbin and will post pictures this afternoon. At the Calgary show we spoke to some guys that went out with the motorcycle conversion kits along the pipeline and Rain Gauge before this snow & there was only 18 inches then. Up at Elk Valley mine they received a foot last night.

Coal Leach Rd/Tin Shack/Powerline access


Blurry - sorry but this is the "Tin Shack" on the Corbin hwy that is the access to the power line. No snow. Our "B" road or Tent Mtn Pass comes out to the Corbin Hwy and you ride about 2-2.5km north in the ditch by the hwy & railroad tracks to this point to get to power line.

Bring quad, leave sled at home. Corbin staging area. Actually it would be a fantastic day for a quad ride.
