    I experienced the wind in town yesterday afternoon. Insane.

    Had a little rain late last night, bottom half Mile 1 elevation affected, but everyone crowding Summit today.

    First run didn’t cross tracks in frontside summit trees. Did another lap then some Zone down to Champagne chair. It was deserted, but big line at Summit again. Did a lap in Taynton which was thigh deep blower and few tracks all the way down.


    Finishing lunch and heading back out in 5.

    Was a good day but holy f, I have never seen lines like that at louise. When I left at 2 there was traffic on both sides of the road 500m below the skoki turn. Punters galore and 50 cm makes for some Warren Miller like moments when paradise opened. Was a great show from the lift.

    I'm heading to Golden tonight so I can spend the weekend in gondola lines.

    Maybe everyone will stay at Louise?

    Although things aren't deep everywhere at Castle (are they ever before Feb ? , it was a very good day with no crowds. Winds should reset things for tomorrow.

    Yep, that was just ridiculous. Never seen that much fall in 24 hours in the Rockies before.

    Great shots. That about sums up some of my day. I will add to those with fomo is that it was heavy and would stop you dead in your tracks unless steep. Thanks for the pictures, didn't have it in me to stop and take any.

    your wish seemed to come true, looking at the web cams at 9:20 there were 10 times as many people in line at each lift than at KH. At KH the coral as not even 1/2 full.

    Awesome shots guys, thanks. Reminds me of that storm in late April 2008 that dropped 100cm in 36h at Sunshine... although there were extreme winds if I recall.

    It wasn't busy at all. Walk on to the Gondola yesterday. There was still a bit of untracked at the end of yesterday in the less obvious lines.

    Great weekend!

    Skier dies at Kicking Horse Mountain resort

    30-year-old man found unresponsive on a ski run at the mountain resort

    Golden-Field RCMP said in a statement police were informed of the "sudden death" of a 30-year-old man from Golden.

    Const. Spencer Lainchbury said the man had been reported overdue by a friend after missing a scheduled meet.

    Police said resort staff made a sweep of the hill and found the man on one of the runs at approximately 7 p.m.
    Police say he was transported by B.C. Ambulance, but attempts to revive him were unsuccessful.

    Golden-Field RCMP say they are continuing to assist the B.C. Coroners Services with its investigation into the man's death.
    Awaiting more details of the bad news. Feeling a bit nervous here.

    Brutal-my guess is North end trees from the news but haven’t spoke to anyone in Golden since heading back to Yyc on Sunday. Thoughts are with the family

    Just back from Icefall lodge. 140 cm over 2 days last week. No to mention the 60 that fell the day before we arrived. Not to mention this;

    Wait, in taking this you clearly dropped out of formation.

    Dropping out of formation has it's advantages I guess.

    Icefall is a really cool place. It was my first guided and catered trip. I would recommend that approach to anyone. Not all the time, but it definitely has it's place. It really makes for a true vacation. The take care of everything and all you're left with is skiing and chilling. We got massive amounts of skiing in. Food was awesome. Respect to our guide Andrew Wrench. Not so much for his mountain skills (which were impeccable but I expect that from an ACMG guide) but more for the fact that he was a really good dude and fun to hang out with. My previous guided experiences (cat skiing) had left me a bit trepidatious of guides for douchebaggery related reasons but Andrew was humble and chill. Jeff was a great cook and we had a strong crew. All in all, a fantastic time and although $2500 is a steep outlaw of cash, it is really a good deal considering what you get. I plan on checking out Larry's other cabin next year (Snowfall) next year.
