Thanks for the tip. I've got the map and will check this out. No guide planned, sounds like I need to touch base with PR1 thou.

Just booked a trip to the Black Hills starting Feb 15. Only thing on the schedule so far.

LOVE the Black Hills. Been there several times. Usually "snow and go" which wasn't going to work with my group. Banking on IP being a bit more consistent (fingers crossed). Went a few years back right around the time of your dates (left on 2/21) and got a huge dump, hopefully history repeats for you this season.

Yes, thank you, will be riding IP in March. It is an easy area to learn. This will be my 7th trip there.

You going with Mom's or ??? Might have to get some info from you on the area if you don't mind sharing.

Making the trip up to Grizzly Lodge in BC at the end of January and Idaho sometime in early March. The Grizzly trip is a bucket list item for me so that should be a trip of a lifetime!!
