Was out at Waiparous today. Really nice out, but got chilly when the sun went down. Will be out there again next Monday to officially cut a Christmas tree.

What is the road like to get out to the Transalta trail during the winter? Pretty dusty/loose gravel or wet/mucky? Thinking of making a quick day trip out today with the fam as long as its decent to get out and hike around a bit in a couple spots...

You probably found out already, but on the off chance you didn't, it's mostly gravel and dusty, with some patches of snow/slick in spots that don't get much sun during the day. Once I got to the river bed last week, it was mostly rock. Didn't run into any muck/mud at all. Let me know how it is, I'm thinking I'll be going out tomorrow.

Hi all,
Picked up my JLU in July and have been lurking ever since. I figured maybe it's time I register. Here's me towing my little teardrop during some late season camping in Sept.

Transalta trail was pretty fun yesterday - a bit dusty and busy - but what do you expect for a Dec 6 run when it's +11 outside

No - just went out with my wife and two daughters. I said hi to a few of them who were at the falls - and I think I know who you mean by Jeff with the toyota 4runner on 37's - is it a burgundy color? There was a pack of 4runners and I noticed there was one with 37's on beadlocks - was like "damn that looks cool!"
Here's a pic - his was buried behind but you can just see the top of his roof...
