If we don't get some snow soon I might need to actually sharpen my edges for the first time since leaving Ontario.

I would say yes based on my experience Sunday afternoon, although looks like freezing levels are rising, so maybe we'll be okay! hahah

what I don't get is who thinks it's smart to run hordes of ski school classes when there's 3 runs open, holy f'ing gong show! WRD indeed….

I hear you. But I suppose those folks need to work though.

Debate? Bikes are made for riding not pushing.

Is Alta Lake frozen yet?
I'm looking forward to some pond hockey after a day on the hills.

Conditions aren't bad if you're willing to work for it!

Was up skiing Whistler today.

~100m below the Roundhouse and higher was pretty decent snow, relatively soft and dry. Boney and shallow in places, yet good in others. Visibility was on and off today.

Red Chair was my lower limit for the day. At the tunnel snow really changed, and had its usual fog there.

End of the day I skied out to the village, what an abortion that is/was

Why slag free swag?:rolleyes:

ummm, as your doctor i recommend against riding with a scaphoid fracture.
