I was on the Mustang website yesterday and saw that our usual two-day Dec. 22-23 trip still had space and was only $600! Then I realized it was $600 a day, not the $300 or $350/day we used to get.Quote:

Oh, someone mentioned in the B.C. Interior thread that Revy will open Nov. 26, so fire up those engines, gents.
Interesting to see how this pans out. Scott Niedermayer speaks in gov't today.http://www.winnipegfreepress.com/spo...133905048.html
Jumbo seems to be in the news a lot lately. Is it really that close to being approved /rejected?Quote:

Yes, but unconfirmed at this point. I'll let you know as soon as they make a decision.Quote:

I received an email from Sunshine saying they were opening on the 17th (a believe that's a day earlier then their original date). I was kind of excited, until I saw they will only have Strawberry, Jackrabbit, Wawa, and Wolverine running. I might head up, or I might just stick to Nakiska as skiing is free with my Fernie pass. Anyone else planning to go?
Isn't it actually nearly a week later than the original date?Quote:

I usually push the 1 or 2 week courses but it's too easy for people to make excuses to not take them. There's really no excuse to have no first aid knowledge other than being either ignorant or selfish or a combination of both.
shit, are we talking the horse ???
don't tell me of a bonus weekend,
Good thing I haven't booked flights eh?
I'm SOOooooo over work, I'm begging to get fired.
any excuse will do as I'm just killing time.

I smell Rogers Pass pics.....noice!
Man, conditions at COP look off the hook! Thanks for the heads up Mex, I'm going this weekend.... Crap
So not nearly as good as it appears to be at "COP", but not too bad today at the Lake for the opening of TOW and the Platter. Pretty much only Outer Limits open, but didn't hit a thing on 5 laps of it along the rope line. Very supportive along a big wind lip. Much less supportive under TOW, but still got in a couple of laps only hitting some shrubs. With the weekend crowd packing things down, and more snow in the forecast for next week, I'd say off to a pretty good start. Certainly more supportive snowpack than this time last year.
Pretty sure the Gondola opening tomorrow will just be some easy groomers. I wouldn't say anything worth the expected -22 tomorrow morning.
good to hear the lake is shaping up. might head there with the wife next weekend
got me first chair on wawa today. It did not suck , decent turns all morning , not very supportive hit a few rocks/ shrubs also kind of on the flat side. oh and we cooked bacon in the line for some gnar points i thank you.
heres a quicky

Thinking of going to the Lake on Sunday. Stuff seems to be open. Worth the trip right now?
Well...you can always NOT go skiing and do whatever else it is you do, or you can just go...turns are gauranteed.Quote:
