I'm hoping the freezing level stays low enough here in the E. Kootenays for the snow to keep falling.
That was not something that was much of an issue when my main skiing was at LL/SSV. :rolleyes:

Thats all for now folks. Layoff begins friday!!
Very cool Monty! Where is are those September shots?
Freezing level at Revy is forecast as high as 1200m the next few days, so rain down low is likely, but snow up high is also likely. If anyone is interested in carpooling from Calgary or somewhere on the way, I'm leaning towards making the drive.
HAH...I was hoping you'd post up some fucking pics. Nice early start to the season for you.
Dumping in Golden! Also a heavy snowfall warning for today! Another 10-15 today on the 10-15 yesterday. The only problem is that this is falling onto a nice, thick and juicy layer of hoar.
It'll pour rain in Revy today, that can stay there!
Freezing level going a bit high tomorrow in Golden. What's the elevation at the hill?

top, 2448, snow plot 2060, bottom 1189m , so the bottom will get some rainQuote:

Dumping in Jasper. Warm heavy flakes which is very rare here early winter and its exactly what we need. (get fucked surface hoar!) I would imagine upper mountain will open within 2 days. Bring it...
Today was very good. Some video stoke may appear later.
Opening Paradise tomorrow apparently. I'm flying solo tomorrow. Anybody going and want to meet up?
Hitting louise on Friday. Tall, tele, green poc helmet, moment Garbones (new fatter ones).
Holla.
Rainfall warning issued for Fernie. Not good for the preview weekend.
It poured in Golden today although by the looks of it from across the valley, the ski hill base trees are white. Still under a heavy snowfall warning followed by more rain tomorrow. Looks as though they got 26cm at the Stairway weather plot today.
Were you at Sunshine?Quote:

Fuck yeah...looks pretty good for fun-ness. Is Standish open yet?
Big dump in Golden (20 +cm's at my house) but now it's pouring rain again. The hill is up to 46.4cm for this storm. Not sure how high the freezing level is now.
Maybe 10cm or so in Canmore this morning and still coming down, roads are probably going to be _interesting_ with the thaw/freeze underneath...
standish MIGHT open for thus/friday. see how wind hammered it is today when I go boot packing
Snow of the past few days has now changed to light drizzle at the base of Kimberley. But looks to still be snowing not too far up the mountain.
Some major dumpage has been going on, so heading out now to have a closer look.

I'll bet that it's announcement of bonus weekend.Quote:
Move pictures and a big update to come shortly!!
Good morning at the Lake. Snow had enough density to be supportive. Good times for sure. Not sure if they did get Paradise open or not. Definitely not running before noon. Tomorrow should be good too with up to 3 new chairs opening.
