    Anyone heard any detail on this? 3 hours and counting..

    EDIT for "Pending further structural assessment of the bridge, the next update will be at 9:00 am".

    The ski out from West Bowl is totally good to go. They should open Peak this weekend for sure.

    SAR now offers a free water delivery service from what I've heard, so you should be good to go. Plus you'll get to bad mouth the RCMP for being insensitive meanies afterwards.

    The concern pow 11 has re cc numbers is very valid. I was able to read my card with my phone (actual true story) and was surprised by the amount of info on there. It's really scary given the...

    I think it's awesome people are getting out there and skiing familiar stuff sans crowds, even if it is still quite boney. Wish we could go back to the days when Peak, Harmony, Showcase, et all...

    A plus to the RFID stuff is it might make it easier for legit BC ticket users to get those tickets. The real payback for WB will be the new alpine zone lift access surcharge.
