Didn’t quit make it to Revy. We had another 5. Boot deep freshies in south, Montana was nice . Wonder how far south down the highway that 30+ will be? Nakusp maybe?

What's the road from Kelowna to Rev like these days? Can I get away with 2wd and some careful driving for a rental car next week?

Well I did it. Quit my job. Taking now until mid may off . So far so good. Would be nice to see the alpine again though.

Certainly a shift in the storm track that’s been skunking Revy hard compared to anything west or south. All time conditions at Red, Silver Star, Big White and Mount Baldy that have seen more snow in 1 day then the last 2 weeks at Revy. They are already exceeding the average max alpine snowbase this season which are numbers that we hit by late March on the best years.

Sweet! How much does something like that cost?
Good one. 20 years from now you wouldn’t remember the work but you’ll remember the touring . guaranteed
I’m sure it’ll happen for us. Not if but when/fingers crossed. Skied pretty good today, not 40cm good but everything was open

I know some folks with a cabin up at Baldy. Based on their reports, I'm inclined to believe the numbers. Apparently it's been relentless the past few days.

Apparently the mountain verified the snow reports. Not too hard to believe given that the same storm that gave 50-60 cm to the okanagan - boundary resorts was pretty much parked on top of Baldy.
On a side note conditions at Revelstoke vastly improved on the upper half of the mountain... Forecasting "trace" amounts of snow last night and today became 26cm over 24 hours and little wind in the alpine. High winds and smaller accumulation on the lower mountain as the storm seemed to be tracking NE to SW, which is pretty unusual.

We have been having the same thing too with storm stracks out here in Whistler
I think it has to do with a dominant arctic high that is only just letting the incoming lows thru, but still heavily influencing the general area. Lots of very light snow / cold temps (for the coast anyway). We have had a few W / NW storms this year, especially in the past two weeks, that as soon as the snow stopped we were right back to north winds.

The snowpack has tightened up a bit, but still pretty fun. From this morning:

Skied Red today, it was phenomenal even with not much new snow overnight. Still plenty of stashes there so going to ski Red again tomorrow. Heading east to Whitewater afterwards and will be there until Friday if anyone wants to link up.

Knee deep blow face day of exploring and hitting trees with the sleds on Sunday. Stability was excellent with about 40-60cm of good snow on a supportive base. Good travelling conditions in the southern monashees.

Same in the corridor here. A little thinner on the solar aspects, but east and northern were over the hood fantastic this weekend.
