Does anyone know where to find Whistler's snow base? The main WB webpage doesn't seem to report it.

Just curious - how are they checking vax status? Do you need to go to guest services or are they checking QR codes in the gondola lines?

It's that time of the year to watch AEX :D

Has anyone been to Sunshine lately? How are the conditions? I am thinking of heading out later this week!

How are the conditions at SSV? Are the Goat's Eye chutes still in good shape or icy?

What are your favorite areas to lap at Sunshine? Goat's Eye?

The lines were nuts all day Sat and Sunday at LL... Paradise was brutal too. Gondola line was ~ 45 min @ 1:30 pm on Sunday (had to take it back up coming out of West Bowl). I've never seen lift lines...

The lift lines were insane this weekend at Louise... is SSV any better?

I'm really interested in their Cat skiing (I've never been to Castle). How is Castle cat skiing on weeks with no snow fall? I'm thinking of heading down there for a day of cat skiing, but there isn't...

Any intel on how Castle Mountain is looking this year?

Sounds like BC is hell bent on closing their provincial borders, I'm betting they will demand 14 day quarantines for all out of province guests (like Manitoba just did).

The new peak chair is awesome, and it barely has lineups (even on weekends). I ventured into west bowl about a month ago and the traverse felt like base grind.... so hopefully it's better now...

Maybe they should since they're so rare :party:

I never skied in West Bowl.. I thought maybe it was special :party:

Did I miss something? My question was regarding snow quality and exposed rocks in West Bowl... did I make a faux pas or something?

How was the snow? Any shark fins lurking?

Underrated comment :)

Was at Marmot yesterday, snow was great (they had a big dump last week). Eagle East had lots of coverage, wasn't super crowded but it was cold out (-15C).

Sorry for the n00b question but... why is that?

Is there a Director's cut available? I heard when they filmed the movie it was expected to be totally different, but they cut it down to the version we have all seen. I think Paul Gross was the one...

Snow Blades are a blast at any age! They rock in the glades ;)

Why can't you use the lodges to warm up? You're allowed to be inside, you just need to mask up and keep your distance.

How did Eagle East look? Good snow coverage?

Was at the Lake this weekend, the front side was scary icy! Larch was icy too. The back bowls were powdery awesome, especially the gullies! I didn't make it out to Boundary Bowl - next time!

I hope by spring I can make it to at least one BC resort!

This is going to be the new trend...

Thanks for the link and advice. I wanted this thread to talk about bump skiing technique, whereas that thread appeared to me as an homage to bump skiing and the good 'ol days.

I did not see it... can you link? An inch lower down (when I just checked) is "Hellllloooooooo" and the Tahoe thread.

Lot's of people look down that steep pitch, peppered with moguls in fear and run away:

What is your strategy for skiing bumps? Do you take it slow and make your turn...

It was +10C on the weekend :FIREdevil

Do people that ski Louise ever put their rock skis away?
:D

Any big changes in Banff, or access to LL/SSV due to Banff's state of emergency declaration?

I always thought having metal in skis was 'harder' on the legs. But after skiing on my new Nordica 104 Enforcers (two metal layers) I bought last year, I have found the exact opposite. My old skis,...

Anyone heading to LL this weekend? Can we finally put the rock skis to rest?

I always thought Eastern BC was Alberta friendly... especially since they are on 'Alberta' time lol!

Elevator Shaft (156) is still on Big 3's Lake Louise trail maps: https://www.skibig3.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/skibig3-lake-louise-ski-resort-trail-map.pdf

How's Larch looking? Still rocky or good to go?

Has anyone tried logging into the website on their phone? It won't let me login with my phone, but I have no problem logging in with my desktop.

This doesn't make sense to me either, plus it's November... what's it going to look like once winter gets rolling? Also, don't you need to buy lift tickets online? Is this a result of a poor online...

I was at Marmot this weekend, ticket lines were crazy long all the way into the parking lots (not sure how long people had to wait). People were good with wearing masks in the lift lines, and the...

Has anyone ordered their lift tickets? Any idea on how long they take to arrive? I hope I get mine before the season is over...

Thanks for the reminder, just ordered it (Blu-Ray is cheaper than VHS or DVD lol)

Any word on Marmot? Have they opened the alpine? How’re the conditions?

Thanks brother, you rock!

Bahahaha I can't wait! Thanks! Could you at least give me your top 3 runs, this can help me and others looking to venture out to RED this winter. And yes, I'll shoot you a DM when I know what date I...

Hey guys - I'm hoping to finally make it to RED Mountain this winter. I've been looking at the trail maps it looks overwhelming - can anyone give me some tips on their favorite runs, gnar runs,...

Did you go bushwhacking in Pika tress?

I signed up for the first time with Mountain Collective this year. I uploaded my picture and set up my account. When I finished setting up my account I accidentally clicked on "Pre-Arrival" passes...

Thanks! I can't wait to get out. Lake Louise already has 40cm base, hopefully La Nina brings us lot's of snow!
