No photos, but the snow at Rogers Pass was phenomenal today - some of the lightest, deepest powder I've ever skied. I love December pow.

Beautiful! Was going to see if you were interested in heading up the creek this trip, Lee, but Jan/February is usually best. Keep it in mind...

I just moved to Nelson for the season and I'm looking for partners if anyone needs an extra. I am currently waiting at the resort boundaries asking to join groups (with surprising success!) Comfortable with long hikes and steep terrain but I'm up for anything. Glad to see everyone killing it at Rodgers.

Everything gets more expensive. the only thing that ever goes down is working class wages... probably for the better, you don't need a bunch a blue collar yahoos bringing down the high class resort vibe.

I don't blame them, have you seen the lift lines there for the gondi? Reason (lines) I stopped going a long time ago. If the people will pay then why not?
I am suprised Revy is not developing anything else at the base (maybe they are I am not paying attention) because I have seen the prices sky rocket, its nuts.
This just got listed today at $470k. 780 sq ft. https://matrix.interiorbc.ca/DE.asp?ID=2185853275www.skevikskis.com Check em out!

Good point. Can't remember the last time I saw someone skiing in jeans. Those guys are priced out
Powder days are a bit of a hassle there...starting to sounds like an oldtimer here. Lines tend to fizzle out after a couple hours though. Looks like the potential for more R/E development (40 hectares or so eventually) as per the updated master plan:

They plan a 158 bed hotel and conference centre and 90 units of worker housing. Be interesting how the conference business goes given the access difficulties. https://revelstokemountaineer.com/ne...reliminary-ok/
Skiing there today did not suck

RMR seems unwilling to put their stock of condos on the real estate market. They must be lucrative as hotel rooms, because I'm not sure why else they wouldn't given the real estate climate in town.
As mentioned, the new hotel and conference centre is in the works, and staff housing is supposed to be built simultaneously.

This has to be one of the more bizarre starts to the season in terms of how skewed snowfalls have been in BC... Revelstoke had an all time week with 120+ cm since Monday. And prior to that another meter since the start of Dec. A good chunk of that accumulation has fallen at the base of the mountain. Yesterday I was hitting waist deep pockets in the trees and alpine.
Silver Star is doing far better then Big White for accumulation which is unusual as well. BW didn't see much snow from this river, since it was funnel prolly 15km north of Biggy most of the last 3 days.
The coast is just now starting to get snow but a lot more is needed.
As for Red Mountain ;( Was suppose to open Friday after a week delay... only to be delayed again until Monday. There is very little snow in the Red Alpine and unfortunately the AR gave them rain at the base of the mountain. That's worse for Red then the start of the 2014/2015 season of doom.
Whitewater webcam ain't looking encouraging either with green trees at the lodge which would suggest freezing levels above 1600m there.

Pillow trackers of the Monashee / Pinnicles and Purcells all have been above median, and greater volume of total precip than past years, and the early stuff really pushed down the alders, resultign is some prety decent covergae this year over last.
the drought periods have been super unfortunate, creating some persistent weak layers ... Personalty (and I am just a hack not an expert), I would think some heavy snow wont be that bad all in all. we need something to help clear out or heal up these weak layers.

We were at a hut start of week near New Denver- pulled out early as it snowed 60cm and started pouring rain by mid day at tree line yesterday. Avy’s rumbling everywhere around us through the fog . Didn’t need much convincing for us to leave.
Drove 150km which took 4-5hrs on nasty roads to the north. Got better as it changed to snow.
Skied hill today-well worth it- headed to coast for Xmas. Have fun!
