Allaire Conditions

[Kevinb]

Monday was great, only the parking lot was slick at 10am and trails were running great, fresh powder and we were on non-fatties. Started to soften/warm up by noon, so might be crunchy now where not bare ground.

I'm about 20mins from allaire, we got about 8-10" so its gonna be a bit before its packed in.

Did a quick snowshoe in Allaire today. Some alpine touring skiiers in there as well- followed some of those wonderfully thick tracks- thanks guys! There’s a thick crust over about 8-10”. The crust cracked with each step so it was slow going. Would be tough to fatbike in until more tracks are made. It would be like pedaling an icebreaker.

What was the problem? Your picture looks like that would totally be rideable. I'm assuming wherever it wasn't packed down with snowshoes or something like that would be impossible. Pretty much like all the parks right now. 😐

Don’t suppose we could someone get out there with a snowmobile?

Not ridable. I know someone that tried Brisbane with a fatbike today.

I would think Allaire is similar to the Pine Barrons right now as I passed Allaire a few times over the last two weeks. Allaire was far worse snow and ice wise vs. my local hike.

Here are pictures of yesterday’s hike. The snow is essentially ice and takes some work to move through it. Intermittent slipper ice is still occasionally showing up. I had been choosing to save my hip from a fall and hike when I can!

If you are on the receiving end of rain tonight, that will clear a lot of the ice/snow.

Tried to ride classic allaire today. Surprisingly very few trails even blazed by hikers. What was was pure zone 4 slush the entire way.

I was just there and yeah like Jon said and Utah said no go pretty much. I was there Sat also got 3 miles in with hike and bike and had more fun on the side of the road on dirt and little snow.
Lewmo was ok yesterday and and fell 5 times going downhill catching ruts off the snowmobile tracks. But it was awesome!
I’ll be gearing up for dirt road / urban / beach adventures galore with the Fatastic fattie.
