    4 Diamond bowls and 1 Bushrat with 35k total vert for the day. Not a bad Saturday at all! Thank God for blackout dates. Yeehaw!

    Does anyone know of any good breakfast places? My go-to used to be Wild Wood in Crystal, but they've shut down. Many of the other places don't open till 8:00, which seems awfully late to me when lifts open at 8:30. Other than coffee shops about the only place I've found that opens earlier is the restaurant in Nita Lake Lodge.

    Whistler Blackcomb staff respond to petition comments


    I have a tendency to think that these 'you're wrong, we're right' videos that get put out in reply to public protests are basically just excuses.

    The Pique article on the reply is here:

    Oh yeah, that's not a bad call. I've eaten there before.

    Sit down breakfast before 8am is tough in Whistler. Most offerings before 8am are counter style or "coffee shops"
    Creekside - Southside Dinner 7am, Dustys Backside 7am.
    Upper Village - Portobello 7am, Wizard Grill 7am
    Village - Gone Bakery 7am, Blacks Pub 7am, Grill and Vine (in the Westin) 7am, Cinimon Bear (in the Hilton) 7am, BG Urban Cafe 7am.
    7:15 Fresh Tracks breakfast on the mountain....

    Just out of the village, alpine café is great and riverside café is pretty good (I'd give the edge to alpine). Both open pretty early I think.

    Thanks. Looks like Alpine opens at 6:30, so that would be a good choice.

    Fuckin brutal
    Was meeting a friend for a Spearhead Traverse and we didn’t get skinning till 1015 cause he got stuck at the bottom. Nothing like knowing ya have to chase daylight and your friend is on the FUCKIN MAGIC CHAIR!
    Did get to that fancy new hut for 430 but as we weren’t vegans we ate in the vestibule before heading down.

    Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.

    Up the Duffey last few days to avoid the insanity. Beautiful cold and sunny days. North faces skiing very well.

    Lots of peeps this weekend skiing some zones I’ve never seen tracked. Like fully exposed hanging snow fields. Looks like they all lived. Anyway nice to have some sun and alpine access. Click image for larger version.

    I opted for poor mans sled today, aka heli drop. I won’t release aka doom this line as I want this beauty to remain as my virgin.

    Nice little trip up north in the resort all things considered. Met some crowds, no new, but damn the snow held up all week and was just starting to melt freeze today.

    I was able to tick off a bunch of the steep inbounds stuff I’ve been shut out of on trips past and my oldest flossed the Saudan cooly before the age I did. Still have one more day to clear two lines lookers left of the saddle. Yeeew!

    That was a great high pressure. stayed cold, light winds, first time i've seen low/low/low all year. Fingers crossed for a snow cycle then repeat in the near future!

    Nice to see Portland peeps getting after it.
    I was there the last week of January and Sudan was in much better conditions then ;-)
    I am going to be at W/B again the first week of March ...hoping for some repeat bluebird days.

    Still haven't been up there, but if you have a line on a day trip when it's high pressure/good weather and stable seems like a no brainer to me!
