Dakota Ridge still great skiing Current Conditions Friday, April 03, 2009
Don't let the SCRD website scare you from going up to Dakota Ridge. Some of the best skiing is now. Spring skiing is great. Have fun and don't forget the sun screen.

Hike and Ski season. Current Conditions Friday, April 03, 2009
Today the road to the Quonset hut was blocked off at parking lot B. So bring your hiking boots as well as your ski gear. My friends and I had a great day(except the view was missing) at Dakota Ridge but the snow was pretty heavy by afternoon down near lot B. We skied down under the trees, not far from the road, and also along the top of the snowbank at the edge of the road to get back to lot B.

Dakota Ridge road closed at Lot B Current Conditions Sunday, April 05, 2009
Seems Dakota Ridge is closed and Road is blocked so you can no longer drive past Lot B. No snow on road so you can not ski up and down or take skidoo up or down. So expect to have to walk up the 2.5 kms. The Tet road has been plowed to the parking lot and still lots of good snow up there.

Soft pack upper and slushy lower Current Conditions Tuesday, April 14, 2009
Access to the upper parking lot is covered in snow. Ample parking in lower lot. Partly covered roads leading to lower lot, good winter tires will do. Soft packed conditions about a hundred metres above Bachelor.

Dakota Ridge Current Conditions Tuesday, April 21, 2009
The road up to Lot B is excellent and doesn't require 4wd. Beyond the bridge you can quickly walk up the road (20 mins) to access the east or west cutblocks. Views, sunshine, and nice spring touring conditions. Nobody else around, and the snow is firm enough for the hounds.
