snowing in town again. both days of summer where nice this year.

10 more at the lake for closing day.

I really want to ride my bike, and be warm,

7cm overnight at the lake. I assume all of 7 people on the whole mnt.

steep season is just starting (moraine lake road doesn't open until end of may)

all ayou talked about re in good shape.

tell all your friends that Ikon ruined it. Too busy and rude locals






your welcome

Rode "no respect", Johnson, and Klusifier yesterday. Felt good to be warm.

if anyone is skiing in banff, I have some buddy passes avail from my skibig3 pass. Gets you a SSV or LL day ticket for $90 (rather then $125?)

just had a nice sunday at LL (winter mode on N facing, ER6/7, and WH2) and a fun day with jetski and skibee (mrs mntlion) in marmot. Fun to get into some new terrain with tres, still a fun...

second hand reports are that the noise was muffled, but not removed.

spring snow squalls all day today in town, hoping that someone got 10+cm to give us a reset to winter

PM jetski . he's local

yes, KH is limited for kids
stay in banff, and a $99 lift and shuttle to KH for a day trip

free bus to LL and SSV daily.

yes, you are in the ROCKY mountains.

North facing backside (ER6,7 and skier right of all WH2 gullies) will be fine. Just follow the sun as it warms Same at SSV, dive will be winter.

post up if any dirt is showing?

skied LL yesterday and SSV today (no dive, but SSC and the rest of it)

LL = MUCH BETTER right now. backside is chauk and windbuff and lovely

LL skied VERY well today, WH2 opened, and looks like it was not open yesterday? or sure had NO traffic in it. This is "G" first tracks. high quality

odds are banff will have less lines then castle, reve, KH, I think. Just due to more lifts and less bottlenecks.

Kimberly (casuse fun town adn terrain) and rossland (6 hours from anywhere,...

20+ cm at both LL and SSV, = improved skiing. (but lots of people)

had a fun morning skiing 9-11, home for lunch

Post on WTF and facebook banff buy/sell?

SC looks VERY filled in.

also cool to see the hayes hill area

odds are never to be opened again. I got 2 laps in when it was "open" with patrol. We took the easiest route in/out (far lookers left) it was kinda spooky, and the other "options" where...

Its a SSV closeuse, so once SSV closes for the season, and ropes/signs etc are pulled its not closed anymore.

also by that time its usually slide to ground (june1)

if you ask at the front desk, or check in at the base of the goldola, there is usually a 1*day bus that goes from LL to SSV, so it MIGHT go directly back to LL as well? Overall not super easy, but...

Good time. Will still be winter and usually now spring here. Snow pack will be still increasing.
