March 18, 2016 – Golden BC Snowmobile Conditions and Conditions Report
More sad news out of the snowmobiling world as an icon was lost a few days ago. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the friends and family of Dan Davidoff who many knew as “The Krazy Canadian”. His positive energy was infectious and left an impression on everyone he met everywhere he went.
A great mix of warm spring weather can be expected for this weekend with sun on Friday, Saturday, and snow on Sunday, Monday. The powder is staying preserved up high and reports of epic, best of the year, deep pow days keep rolling in.

Grooming and Fee Schedule
Thanks to Jeremy Guy and Black Lung Welding, the new and custom handmade in Golden BBQ is done and up and running at the Quartz creek cabin so bring something to grill up for lunch; propane is supplied by SledGolden and hauled up in 20 pounders so please remember to shut it off when you’re done.
Grooming and fee collection is still in full swing but the snow is a little thin down low on some of the trails. Fast Cat grooming is doing some great work farming the snow off the sides and keeping it smooth. Staging for Gorman is still at the lower lot for now, but when the snow becomes too thin on the trail to groom, we will open the road and stage from the upper parking lot at 14 km.
The grooming and fee collection schedule for the next week is as follows:
Quartz Creek
Grooms scheduled: Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday (evenings).
Fees: Everyday ($25/rider)
Coming very soon to the Quartz cabin is a new BBQ just in time for the sunny spring days hanging out in the sun on the deck; stay tuned and we will let you know when it is up and running.
