The club has posted our COVID protocols here
Please advise yourself and abide by all provincial public health advisories. Sled Golden has a strong contingent of local members and participants and we are focusing on serving them during this time.
Avalanche
There’s been some sketchy avalanche activity in our zones this week. Please check https://www.avalanche.ca/ for all updated avalanche forecasts and check out the MIN reports for our areas.
Are you new to the backcountry?
Check out Avy Savvy, a newly launched program designed to be a precursor to the Avalanche Canada Training program.
Grooming
Warm temps typically mean the trails get whooped quicker. We will be working in all our areas in the next week to flatten the trails as best we can.
Insurance and Registration
Just a heads up, the Conservation Officers have been quite active this year checking for both insurance and registration on sleds, as well as for DOT approved helmets (head’s up sled skier/boarders).
