Translation:
“Offer: lift to tremblant this Sunday. Leaving from iberville station (that’s in Montreal)”
Totally fine to give two hour car bumps to strangers coming out of a metro station from the epicentre of a pandemic during a pandemic.
The level of dum on the various backcountry in Quebec fb pages is amazing.
First day in the BC today.
Practiced social distancing on the up.

The schmoo that fell last Saturday made the first 300-400 vert tough because all of the Beech bushes were totally intertwined and stuck into the ground. Once we navigated through that it was phenomenal. So much snow from the upslope/lake-enhanced that slatham noted.
Sounds like a midweek banger was had schwaking around Smuggs! Good on you guys. Was said on the lifts today: where is everybody? They’re in the trees man

As a snowboarder, it still warms my cold knuckledragging heart to see both Spatulas and Bros in the last couple pages.
Found a good line while skiing the dog today.

Some folks bring headlamps and don't stick to the lit-up stuff; I don't know what the current level of tolerance for that is. Back in the day, it was heavily dependent on who caught you and how blatant you were being.
I do know that they've posted several times on social media about being sold out of night tickets, so either it's gotten a lot more popular, or they've actually chosen a responsible and conservative ticket-cap number.
Best day of the season so far. More snow than I expected. Explored a new zone at Mt Ellen. Bit twiggy but deep and fluffy. Attachment 359397
I love that spot. I’m glad to hear you all had a good time and got out safely.Quote:

Current winholds at south require hiking/skinning to heavens gate, that I can see spinning, to ride a chair. Or the rock at 9. lol
* Super Bravo, Gate House, Valley House, North Ridge, and Summit are on wind hold. *

Just a guess but it might have something to do with COVID:). Simply glad any of the lifts are spinning, quite frankly.Quote:

Phone battery nearly died after the first
lap, so it stayed in my pocket for the remainder.
Don’t let a crowded parking lot dissuade you. Just go further.
^Great day, G. Thanks again for including me. Got in a little reggae. Thankfully the roots and rocks were buried. Cold but a beauty.
