It's been a few years since KHo has been this hurting for snow in the alpine; I wouldn't want to compete in these conditions. Even the untouched is still like sugar with rocks not far beneath.

On...

It probably slows everyone down too much.

I love the Morans shovelling snow piles thinking that they will block the vehicles in. A for effort.

Here it is unfolding:...

Some light reading on the Morans in the Coutts ordeal:

There's a history with this group being a jackass in public. There are probably more examples, but I can remember in Edmonton there were Canada Day riots one year, Stanley Cup riots another,...

Invermere/pano is the second home to many Albertans with similar thoughts on freedom and misunderstandings regarding the Charter. How can you not be tainted by being immersed in that?

You're right, it is written at a grade 6 reading level which counts many of these "freedom fighters" out, as they can't read it let alone understand it. Think of how smart the average person is. Now...

It's not bad if you check the grooming report. There is limited beginner terrain up top, but what is there is doable by even the most beginner skier. Most really enjoy the view. I used to send my...

Oh and if you're in Golden for a big gulp, you would have to get that at the 7-11. It's in town, away from the highway service area and truck stops. It's right by the bookstore, post-office, bakery,...

Just got back from watching the Freeride World Tour live, I couldn't see it from the truck stop, so I headed up for a lap of okay skiing in the sun. I even said hello to some local logging truck...

Not to pump his tires too much, but he used to be a snowboard instructor in Whistler. He spent one Christmas vacation at Kicking Horse. I saw him, can confirm, he can rip.

There's a reason he made...

You can see the groomers working below there right now.

Here's a list of people not to do business with: https://convoytraitors.ca

The chutes you see are all fun to ski from a powder day perspective. The cornice on top is often the trickiest part. Some have mandatory airs but I won't tell you which ones:smile:

People are supporting them by bringing big containers of ketchup and mustard to the occupation site. Some say they are jerry cans of fuel, but I doubt it. There's enough there for everyone to get...

Their country won't have a flag, you'll just need to have a mullet, be a white person, wear hi-vis and know how to spell freedom (many just learned this last week). No cars, only trucks. I believe...

They are now clogging Ottawa 911 lines with non-emergency calls.

Has anyone spotted a Trudeau is a Moran sign?

The problem with this redneck rally hillbilly hoedown is they are not just anti-vax, they're anti-government. I think that they have a tough time comprehending that it takes laws to create freedom....

John Parry is still there!

-20 at KHo. Nobody there and other than being a bit slow, the snow was nice.

why isn't this parked up on the curb?

TGR has upwards of 30 trackers profiling you.

Ozone?

The Albertans are already busy towing their boats and playing golf down there.

I can't tell you how much shit we've gotten off of flipped semi's around Golden. Crock pots, cedar shakes, McDonalds fries, frozen chickens, TV's. That word travels fast in a small town.

perhaps people need to reevaluate where they live if they feel the need to travel to ski during a pandemic?

To the outdoor rink in skates is a bit easier than to the hill in ski boots. In my old vw, the clutch gets used sometimes. The gears are easy to find without it.

With rights come responsibilities; privilege and entitlement fail to recognize this.

Hopefully the latest round of COVID cash from the government doesn't cause British Columbians to flood Alburda ski hills, er I mean shopping malls.

This is the key. I noticed an influx of Man, Sask and Ab plates over the past few days in Golden. The holidays are here......

KHo got abused quickly. However, no surprise, as only the top half is decent. Many tourists seemed to stay away and locals were pretty much split on whether to go up or not. With the uncertainty of...

Great read thanks!

Rain, snow, rain, snow, rain in Golden right now.

Confirmed for Thursday opening at the Horse just watch out for this local idiot that owns Kicking Horse Interiors....

Is there anything...

Although this snow is falling upon an interesting surface. Sun crust up top on the south’s, thick hoar in the middle elevations all aspects and little snow down low in Golden. Sounds like a usual...

This incoming snow next week is going to make for some interesting conditions out there. Play safe everyone!

As far as I know, people are still allowed to wear their tinfoil hats. The new hats...

Revelstoke is a mess right now, largest outbreak outside the lower mainland. I hope this isn’t a sign of what’s to happen to the small communities in the koots once ski hills open.

car wax works

How did Revy opening go?

I agree completely, but Interior Health does not want to release that info for privacy concerns. They are also shy about listing the number of people in Golden who currently have it due to privacy...

We appreciate your vigilance. Every case Golden has experienced thus far has come from Alberta. The snow here is okay for early season, nothing epic. Trailheads be bumpin’ with red plates though....

I just sold my 2003 vw golf with 500 000km, just broken in and still getting 60mpg. A little small for the vehicle you're looking for but the 2003 ALH vw Diesel engine is one of the best out there!

Valhalla Pure Outfitters may be able to help, free shipping on orders over $49.

Prepare for some serious slack/backcountry jongage. Be leery of who lies above you this upcoming season more than ever. Time to head farther and deeper in to the abyss for solitude and bliss.

They do it once in the winter and once in the summer, this was the first time they allowed you a whole week to choose when to use the pass and included mountain biking. In the past, it was only one...

Locals week at KHo. Free pass for everything, including biking up until Friday. You just need a license with a Golden or Area A address on it.

You will be able to ride COVID free on top of the gondy cars for a 2% price discount or perhaps a 2% price increase.

as useless as 22 tits on 11 nuns.

Only 4 plants allowed per household and they must be out of public sight! Oh you mean tomatoes....
