    Early Winter Blues

    This is the worst time of year for many of us out there, myself included. The winter of the year past is a distant memory, the dog days of the summer and the old winter stoke are long gone, the beauty of fall and the excitement of the winter to come has faded. All that is left is cold, rainy weather. Snow now seems like a hoax, and winter like a dieing star giving off its last light somewhere out in the cosmos. We have yet to get a day on snow, yet to see the first flakes fall. I have given up hope that snow will ever return, it is too painful to hope, and to watch you all with your stories of snowy mountain fun. Lies, all of you LIES!!

    I went to Blackcomb for the weekend. We ducked ropes and skied patchy spots between snowguns and shrubs. Couloir extreme looked to have enough snow to be doable.

    Fret not, the forecast calls for snow...

    Speaking of Whistler - have you noticed the big advertising campaign they've got going this year? Seems like lately every other ad on TV is for Whistler/Blackcomb - they run them back to back. Kinda curious.
