Merry Christmas Indeed

A Merry Christmas indeed. We went for a wee stroll in Vancouver today to burn off some Christmas grub, and wham, it started snowing bigtime. Green when we went out the door, and about 4cm by the time we got back an hour later. Not to shabby for a white Christmas in Vancouver, and a reminder to get our butts up to Whistler tomorrow for more shredding.

Got a chuckle out of this one... obviously it's time to put the surf board away and get the ski gear out again...

Snow in Whistler... on Sep 19... the countdown has begun. Bring it on, we're ready for it. Well, the Mountain Bike Park is still open and going strong for a couple weeks, but it's pretty exciting to see snow on the mountains. And we know there's plenty more where that came from, coming in October & November. Opening day is just over 8 weeks away - November 22. Where will you be?

Season Passes are now on sale. Get yours before the Early Bird deadline October 8, 2007 for mad savings. See y'all November 22.

Just when winter finally kicked in, I received a pretty stoking news link about next winter.

READ THE TIMES ONLINE STORY>>>

Let's just say they're callin' for a La Nina year, and atleast somebody thinks it's going to be an epic winter next year. Could it possibly be as good or better than this past winter? Time will tell... but get ready.

Park update - SO MUCH SNOW

Whistler Blackcomb — Mon, 8 Jan 2007 12:33:04 -0500

Whistler is having on of the best seasons ever! Endless fresh snow keeps falling (27+ feet and still counting) and we are well over a 3 meter base now.

Yep, that's a rail.

The fresh pow makes for epic riding but is actually slowing down the Parks expansion as we have to continuously dig out the rails, features & rebuild the park almost weekly! The park staff do their best to clear off snow on the rails & hits so our park riders can still hit the features each day. At night, our park groomers are plowing the snow off, rebuilding table tops and rail platforms.

Huge thanx to the day & night Parks team for making the effort each day to offer you the best park riding experience. Fences buried to the top & waist to chest deep drifts around the rails is giving the Parks team a work out almost every day.

Maybe the on line contest www.ifullrwasagirl.com is causing Ullr to be vengeful with the all the snow this season!?

So if you’re up here and in the park, enjoy it, and props to the team for keeping it in shape. If you’re up here and out of the park, well, you know how good it is, we don’t need to remind you. And if you're not here, well, you know what to do...

Huge Snowfall at Whistler Blackcomb

Yep, if you like snow and don't live in a cave, you probably know that it just dumped 50+ cm's on Whistler Blackcomb. But it gets better... the alpine didn't open today, making for some epic anticipation of this weekend. Add that to the Grand Opening of the new Symphony Express lift, and it almost gets silly.

We'll see you up here this weekend.

Enjoy...

Oh, and if for some unfathomable reason you aren't able to make it up this weekend, will let you in on the forecast... there's more coming.

"One of these kids is not like the other..."

Ridiculous snow

This is just rediculous. What a start to the winter. Whistler has been epic. I missed today's action but the peak is sched to open for tomorrow and it's going to be silly. Meanwhile, I read skerboy's post about Fernie going mental, and then to boot, at work I get sent a link... http://www.mtbaker.us/snowreport/index.htm - to Mt Baker's snow conditions... "Our STORM TOTAL for the past 4 days is now 75 inches. WE NOW HAVE THE DEEPEST SNOWBASE OF ANY SKI AREA IN NORTH AMERICA! The series of cold fronts that have been coming to us from Alaska are keeping the forecasts looking great with significant amounts of snowfall expected on into the weekend and freezing levels possibly as low as 500 feet! With our base at 94 inches, there is a good chance we will reach the 100 inch mark this weekend!"
