Damn that’s brutal… I’d be skinning with that line
Looks like a great trip! Nice bluebird days.
Our trip was a complete washout, literally. Rained at Whistler the entire week. Such a bummer. Too warm a storm at too low an elevation resort. Doubt we will ever chance it again after this experience. Sticking to higher elevation North American resorts from now on.
Rain from base to peak a couple days. And if it was snowing, it was very wet n heavy. Oh well. Second trip to BC and neither have been stellar. Simply too unpredictable at that low of elevation. A couple degrees and it would have been feet of snow judging by the rainfall totals over the week.
F that nonsense! I almost prefer skiing in the rain.

When were you there? That’s kind of shitty. Haven’t been that way in years (done Big White a couple times, Whitewater, and looking forward to Baker, Sun Peaks, & Silverstar all at some point) but my brother was up for a day trip yesterday, and said it was some of the best snow he’s seen in a while. Granted, that’s not saying ALL that much with the recent snow here, but no rain. Bunch of friends gone on a day trip today, too.
Of course the snow was “great” once we left. Lol! We were there all last week. Left Friday. Everyone there was miserable.
I totally get its a crap shoot, but we just won’t take the risk on the low altitude. It really is a degree or two from boom or bust. No alpine areas were open, they actually closed expressway run to the base on Thursday because it had running water washing away the run.
Really poor timing and luck, but not willing to risk it again in the future. Maybe Revelstoke?
Finally got a day in at Sugarbush. Been travelling a bunch recently so was delayed. Went straight to the trees for hours, feel like I was in a car crash now.

Seriously. Biggest initial reason I chose Telluride was the lack of crowds. I go on vacation to get away from people. That just looks miserable.

Here is what happens in CO when the media hypes up a weekend snowstorm. Gondola No. 1 at Vail yesterday.

Bought some skis on Saturday ;D. Picking up on Friday. I’m hooked.
Wow I have never seen a lift line that long. What the hell.

Broke in the new sticks last night. Felt really good.
