Apparently snowing at the roundhouse today. Let us know what conditions are cause a friend lost a pair of skis somewhere off Phalanx he's planning to go look for.

you forgot zig zag pond, it's skimmin time. Saw a telemarker who face planted in it, soaked head to toe!

According to my conversation with some senior patrollers in Horstman hut last week, this is NOT the case. They all pointed out that PC is PERMANENTLY closed, no exceptions. If it's on the tenure,...

Nice running into you and Max, was bound to happen once I got my butt over to Blackcomb.
Sweet shots.

I actually forgot a little how good riding powder is, till this morning, damn that was good, and it's May ffs!

Got rocked by a size 1.5/2? bottom of Luan's Leap (sp?), that straight shot looker's...

^^ off the Spearhead SE shoulder, lots of fun lines. That one is not quite that steep as shown in the photo ;-)
Still can't believe how good the powder was today.

It's the winter that keeps on giving! Untouched lines all morning down M$/Khyber. Barely a line up anywhere. Saw those bombholes on Demanskis, sick stuff.

Empty chairs on the peak most of the day, awesome pow and good skiing to the valley on both sides of the mountain. The snowpack in some gullies at lower elevation have collapsed and huge holes have...

Yep, just ski up and sit down on the peak chair lap after lap, nice pockets of pow all over the place, hardly anyone up there.

Wicked edit taylorm0! I miss falling asleep with some of those images running through my head, what a great season.

I heard the RCMP was clamping down on the poor man's chairlift (hiking to midstation) and confiscating your gear until you buy a lift ticket. There goes some cab business to Brio.

Todd, were you following me? Cause you just described my day :-)
Just add in some Garbo/Seppo's laps with a powder sandwich on every roll!

Not very high, it turned to wet snow by midstation.

wet dreams /gun barrels was just retardedly deep, had to wipe the snow off my chest heading back to the chair, just caked!

Double fail! ;-)

Yes it was sweet free refills this morning, great valley bottom laps until the freezing level rose quickly, but didn't mind the heavy snot. My personal gondolas were full on...

Dude, you made that look so easy. :yourock:

This morning Cirque/Couloir off peak were nicely filled in, after walking outside just now I think there will be some new icing on the cake for tomorrow.
Filthy, that looks like where we've been...

Some crazy winds up there with awesome whiteouts. I'd stand there getting pummeled by snow and laugh.
Was fun while it lasted.

If you're looking for the alpine to be open, Thursday's your best bet.

Thanks for the Jager shots a couple of weeks ago :yourock:

Cakehole was really good up top but you could see the wind starting to affect the surface, didn't affect skiing really, stilll blower up top. But then maybe below 1800m the snow got sun affected...

Best ski week EVER! Met up with some friends, one lives in Pemby, does his weekly Duffy thing with his touring setup, has an edge card, comes out for his 5 days a year W/B. Today he borrowed some...

I don't often bro-brah-blog but damn, absolutely epic laps on the peak. Pick any classic line and shred it in the deepest blower. Over and over again, with zero line up. You had to know your...

Anyone else see the 3 in a row off Air Jordan?
Skier #2 dropped the second cliff diagonally after checking his speed and minimized his vert so much no body parts touched the snow, crowd went wild. ...

This. My favorite zone when freezing levels are low. Pure bliss top to bottom.
Had 2 big waits on Garbo and Olympic midstation, other than that, banging lap after lap. Thank you fresh tracks.

Ullr is apparently back, well rested and ready to rock! That young intern replacing him looked good with her blue skies but she was weak in the snow department. That snowpack is gonna be a...

Nice shots Lee!
Looks like you guys had a blast :fmicon:

Same conclusion here. The stupids off Horseman were good for a few turns. The glacier was good up top and the cat track was damn fast, sure beats noisy scraping down groomers. Hopefully things...

"Flu Shot". There it is :biggrin:

Finally got out for a tour up on Phalanx.
Thanks for the crew who put in the boot pack in with us. With 3 guys ahead of me, I was still crawling on my poles to keep me from sinking past my knees. ...

Excess Backcountry/Whistler Village sports, same owner, stores face each other, close to mountain base.

Escape Route, at the other end of the stroll in Marketplace.

I agree that today was awesome, plain and simple. Charging all morning with no line-ups to slow down the rhythm. It was like eating really good food really fast.

I'm not one to complain about tourists much, but man today was scary. Lots of high speed traffic, and many not looking in control. My mom got knocked to the ground on 7th Heaven by some guy, she...

now that you point it out, yeah.

Vibes to his family and everyone involved in this tragedy.
What a shitty...

Wow, une chance tu t'en ai bien sorti! (glad you made it out fine)
Thanks for the reminder, I've had something similar happen on top of Whistler bowl but the cornice crack stopped under my front...

We were on Flute this morning and it seemed to be controlled pretty well.
Heliskiing laps, touring only as the road isn't groomed and symphony chair's closed. Except these two guys who were slowly...

word.

Thanks for the tracks dude, suuuper snotty!

Had the usual runs off of green and red chair this morning, definitely some nice snow early on, then trying to get creative we headed up to do McConkey's trees with early exit, but got stopped by the...

I'll be going up Whistler and usually head up Creekside.
I won't hold my breath on alpine opening before I go to work at noon but you never know. Meeting a buddy at lightboard 9am. Anyone else...

Right on! I'm breakin' out my new Super 7s tomorrow also.
I'm in black pants, black jacket, black helmet, black backpack, black FKS 140, the brightest thing will be that big red R on the one ski...

Dear Ullr, thank you for laying upon the peak of Whistler some of the finest powder over the last couple of weeks. It's been a torrid affair between me and that sultry peak, getting intimate with...

looks like a well timed dump could be on its way
