SOooooo wondering if there's anything rideable in Valleycliff or up by Crouching in Squamish.

Anybody's been hiking either one of those areas?

Thanks

Haven't even gone close. All of Alice Lake area still has over a foot of frozen snow. I would imagine the trail was ridden when it first snowed and now its icey

Plural is ridable right now.

Some snow on the road on the way up debecks (from gate to 1/2 km up)
Some snow on the trail.

Worth doing but feels like a teaser as it is a quick decent.

finally got out for a ride today, with BRT. felt so good to ride again! CW was pretty much snow-free (after the snow bank on the road!), as is lower ditch pig, but blow out yer candles and angry midget were deep!

Yeah I rode cake walk as well, couldnt believe how good it was. Plural of Nemesis is pretty much snow free, except for the very top and bottom. Credit line is really good too.

Excellent news! Looking forward to getting out.

How are the approaches to the pedals - can I ride up Jacks [HTML_REMOVED] Mike's Loop or more of a snowy/icy slog?

Angry midget? Is this the trail I think it is? I can only think of so many people that would name their trail after the little people. (btw, I think they answer to little people these days. not to go all PC on you, but you know…)

As of today, Cake Walk is in good shape (after a sketchy drop in). Crouching Squirrel is 70[HTML_REMOVED]#37; clear. The push up from Alice Lake is hard work though.
