From the weeks leading up to the event, to the hype surrounding the 5th anniversary of the Orage Masters and its move to Whistler; there remains only one thing left to say...

Congratulations to the K2 Spread Eagles... They came, they saw, they kicked some ass... and broke beer mugs over their heads along the way. Doglotion.com was too busy burning our faces skiing slackcountry slush to cover the event in detail, but here's the word on the street from Orage, and some vids from our other fine furry web mag friends.

What does girls who rip, Whistler Blackcomb, and $25,000 cash all have in common? If you're answer is "The 3 things i dream about most", you're close, but didn't quite nail it. Back again this year, Whistler's If Ullr Was a Girl contest has another $25,000 prize purse for female rippers to grab, but girls have to enter in the next 2 weeks!

At last, Gaper Day 2007, a mockumentary by Paul Cotton, has been released for the public world to enjoy. After a packed audience ate it up at My Millennium Place on the weekend, it's now live on the web for all to enjoy.

Words cannot describe the display of sillyness, ferocity, passion, fashion innovation, and blasphemy that made up Gaper Day 2007 - a day for all gapers to be proud of. It was in the cards, the most epic winter season in memory could only be followed by an even more epic season ender bender. The slushy snow conditions were prime, the temps - a smoking 30 degrees celsius, and the stars were aligned. We think.

Whistler Blackcomb, a mountain resort already renowned for daring innovation, has announced its boldest move yet with the construction of the Peak to Peak Gondola, for completion December 2008. The two mountains will be united by a gondola that will set world records for length and height while providing an unmatched experience for winter and summer resort guests.

Whistler Blackcomb has kicked off Phase Two of the “If Ullr Was a Girl” contest. Ten invited professional skiers and snowboarders will join the top open athletes from ifullrwasagirl.com to battle it out for an unprecedented $25,000 prize purse. 

Following the most recent snowstorm that dropped 22 centimetres or 8 inches in 24hrs, snowfall accumulation totals at Whistler Blackcomb have reached record highs. 877 centimetres or 345 inches of snow has fallen in Whistler so far this season, which is the most the resort has seen by this time in January based on 27 years of snow data analysis. The previous record saw 827 centimetres or 325 inches fall by January 31 of the 1991/1992 season. The current base sits at an incredible 305 centimetres or 120 inches as measured at mid-mountain.

November 2006 will go down in history books in Whistler as the snowiest November ever. Were you here? With 416 centimetres or 13 feet 6 inches of snowfall recorded during the month, the prior November record of 272 centimetres or 107 inches was crushed, setting a new high for early season snowfall. This month’s snowfall has created phenomenal conditions for an excellent winter season.

If the 12 feet of snow wasn't enough, winter in Whistler has now officially been ushered in. Kicking off on Thursday with Whistler Blackcomb's official opening day, Blackcomb opened with insanely good coverage, and eager anticipation of what was to come in the alpine.
