Sitting in a cafe in Revelstoke waiting for the highway west to open again. Some accident has it closed. Can't see it being road conditions that way, highway is just wet in town. Probably some yahoo trying to make up lost time from crawling thru Rogers pass at 60km

I went for a long drive up north today to a logging that is supposed to be plowed this winter. Unfortunately, they didn't plow it this weekend, so the road wasn't drivable. Instead, we went for a long walk up a logging road, then into some nicely spaced trees. Snow pack was 120cm deep at 1,800m on a SW aspect. There was about 50cm of new snow on top of a crust. We didn't get any higher because of early season legs. We got a few good turns in, but for the most part the snow was a little too heavy and the terrain a little too flat to really enjoy it.
Still, it was good to get back on snow.

Nice Alex, they had the logging road plowed across the Mica Dam bridge last year. I wonder if this logging road is of similar quality, I hope so!

Knee to thigh deep with no base in the Rossland area. Just ski-able if you know what's underneath.

Over 1m at Silver Star since Friday. Looks like rain up to 1600m-1800m tomorrow for opening day. Going to be a lot of disappointed skiers tomorrow with all the hype I am seeing this morning. Hopefully it doesn't rain but I never understand why people can't look at a forecast properly. Crossing my fingers it holds just cold enough for the gorge this weekend.
EDIT: looks like the latest forecast isn't calling for the warm until late Thursday. Might be pretty good tomorrow at SS.
Lee, doesn't look like this dump tracked north enough for the gorge, mustang only got 8cm and revy a dusting. It is just hitting there now.Last edited by el hefe; 11-26-2014 at 01:06 PM.

I'm on mancation with wife/kids in Ottawa for the week and looking to scratch that itch and get out for some winter fun... the coast is ok up high, but still really early conditions down low and sub-alpine is acting like a barrier to the alpine for sled/touring access. Walking up to Whistler peak from the lifts the last couple of days has lost its luster. Wondering if it's anymore game on out your way with all that new snow?

Some of my buddies have been out sledding a few times (5+Ft) and Monashee pow was pretty decent last weekend I hear. I would say this weekend should be good up high, should cool big time and clear for the weekend.

Currently nukking in the valley here is revy has been all week . Calling for another 80 or so by the weekend ! The pass should be skiing really well. Base was pretty good down low where it wasn't a boulder field
