Looks like snow the next few nights, but not likely enough to make turns, except on a glacier.
Seasons pass at Kimberley for me this season, since I am moving there in a few weeks. But also the usual cards for KH and Whistler. Might even get to Fernie a bunch. Also looking forward to exploring new backcountry areas after so many years of doing Banff/K Country and the Parkway.
Any Kimberley maggots? I thought there were a few who posted now and again.

Lord knows its cold enough , siting at 9 C here canmore ( at least outside my window)
White caped peaks even for a few hours will please me
a couple of years in a row (2005-2006) the season started with the bestest snow for september long. Eldo posted a couple of "season openers" from highwood pass that were superb. then you have t2c's october freshies...
not all is lost :)
The best pre season turns I have had were last year on September 9th and September 22nd. Didn't even hit any fricken rocks. I have time my work shift to be home on the same latter September weekend...or I might just say fuck it and wait for the larches instead then come home.Quote:

Alright il admit this question is probably best for newschewlers and at the risk of being completely shunned from tgr.....any one know if theres a rail jam at freshtival? ....don;t hurt me
^^^^Crickets:wink:
They had a rail jam a few years ago. I recall Tanner doing some slides and flippy, spinny stuff on the hillside near SAIT.
^lol....
