What's going on in Pemberton at the moment? Is anything rideable? I am staying up there this weekend and the plan was to ski, but the mountain is nothing to write home about right now.

NIMBY is ridable to Back Pains - Access is best from the top of Waco.

Still lots of snow in the valley, and lower Happy is still covered, but if you're jonesing and don't have the time to drive to Squamish, there is (dirt) riding to be had!

Thanks. Me and my gf rented some fat bikes from you on Saturday and had a great time. We rode Sea to Sky Trail out to Nairn Falls campground then hit Pickle Surprise on the way back. The snow makes things a bit sketchier and more drifty but quite predictable, and the grip is surprisingly good with the huge tires. That was a good time.

Anyone want to guess whether della creek would be snow free? I saw some photos of lillooet looking pretty brown with no snow.

The rain over the last few days has put the hurt on the local snowpack - people starting to venture out and report back:

NIMBY to Back Pains
Radio Tower
MooseJah
Bob Gnarly

all clear of snow. Waiting to hear about Happy Trail, but I'd expect some snow at the lower elevations.

Edit: and there are three new DriveBC webcams so you can check out the weather:

Yep, Nimby and Let it Go clear. No snow on road to Overnight either. Middle Earth could be clear too by the looks of it
