2020 Has Started!

I am excited to have a wonderful riding season soon upon us. The forecast is for a positive la Nina year! I am so excited about the possibility of a lot of snow. I am hopeful all the storms will hit us here in the North Central Cascades. It's been a busy year so far getting three Huts ready and it looks like our New Snopark at Silverstar Creek on Highway 20 is going to be finished and ready for use. Special Thank you to Don Fitzpatrick for his work on the project. 

We are following the lead of other non-profit organizations in the area for this Season. As of right now many of them are not having General Membership meetings due to the pandemic that we are going through. At the State level of Snowmobiling, everyone is very supportive of having planned rides. Yes, we will have weekly rides! I have provided the ride schedule on this blog. We have to be smart and be respectful of all current Covid-19 guidelines that are in place. Rides are a go, but there will not be lunch provided. So, pack a lunch and let's ride! 

The Sweetgrass hut had to be relocated this season due to really early snow and then the snow never went away on the north side of the road to get to Sweetgrass. This year the hut will be at Banker Pass. Banker Pass is on Forest Service Road 52, which can be accessed from Goat Creek Sno-Park and Eightmile Sno-Park. 

All Huts will be open, let's be respectful to those who are using the Huts when you ride up and your group wants to join other groups.
