About time! :mrgreen: (Joke!)

That sounds good! Where's our destination?

This means having to wait until I get home to see Doctor Who 50th anniversary special. :blob:

Ok, time to commit!

The run on Saturday will be out to the Secret Lake Loop, (can't tell you where ... because its secret!). We will be following some great little trails that we haven't done as a club for quite some years. Good possibility that we will run into snow in a couple of spots, but we are hoping that it will only be a couple of inches and still passable. Bring snow chains if you have them (just in case), if you dont have them, no worries. Dress warm, bring your lunch, sunglasses and camera!
Meeting at the Sasquatch Inn carpark, (highway #7), Agasiz on Saturday morning between 9.00am and 9.30am. Please make sure you are fueled up, have lunch in your truck and are ready to depart at 09:30am sharp.

Post up if your coming along ...

Cheers,
Andy

Unfortunately I can not do Sunday this weekend so Saturday it will have to be ... I will make sure the December run is on a Sunday as that seems to be the more popular choice!

The weather is looking good and a smaller group will still be fine .... see you tomorrow morning,

Cheers,
Andy

Thanks to all for making it another fun trip. :D

Special thanks to Pete for the winching lesson and Andy for the VERY long loan of the strap & shackle.

Yes a small but enthusiasic group headed up to find the long lost "Secret Lake"....
We had to saw our way through dead-fall, crawl through deep wash-outs, squeeze past land slides and winch our selves back onto snow covered trails .....but we made it!
Great day of sunshine, fresh air and good company,
Cheers,
Andy
