Winter Riding on Vancouver Island

Well the snow is likely going to stay around now for the upper sections of Forbidden and Cumberland. Current snow level in the valley is down to sea level (for those of you out of towners)

Will check on snow elevations this week as the next few weather systems pass through. 

For those of you interested, some elevations to play with - Snow usually persists above 400m through the winter, so the lower cumberland trails, potentially the downhill course and new allen lake project stay clear. Bucket of Blood and Grub 'n Stub are typically snow covered for most of the winter. On the Forbidden Plateau trails, anything above Two Pond Pass is in the snow through March, leaving Tomato Creek, Rudy's, Arbutus and the lower trails of Bics, Black Diamond, Busted Nut, Easy Rider and Transmission for winter rides. 

To provide some change through the winter season why not try the following xc trails. Most can be found on our various Vancouver Island Trail Map pages.
