If you think the lifts at Seymour aren't a cause for concern, tell me that when you go and wait in line for 20-30 minutes to wait for a 10 minute ride up to do a 2 minute run down. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

I've done all the locals, including Hemlock. Honestly, my mindset these days is to get runs in, not wait in line. To that end, I ride Cypress or Hemlock. I've had passes for all the locals except Hemlock, too.

I'm definitely doing at least one Big White trip this year, though! Hopefully I get a good weekend and not a Big Whiteout. :p

is there a way to pick up your whistler edge card before i go?

i know two weeks ago they were activating season passes at UBC

You didn't have an edgecard last year?
You can go pick it up early but it's kind of a hassle to go all that way to pick up the card.

came back from grouse today, got there around 1pm.. it was pretty empty.. it got busy after 5:30pm, i guess thats when students and people are off from school/work..

overall it was pretty good, snow was a little hard tho

just pick it up the first day you go. i got there at opening and it was like a minute or two line up and i was out of there in less than 5 mins.

Anyone been to the real mountains yet? Ie. Whistler/Blackcomb?

TOS'd 12-03-2010 12:07 PM

I went to whistler during opening weekend.

I was on blackcomb last weekend and the conditions were decent. The chairlift lines were super packed. I won't be going to whistler/blackcomb until they open more chair lifts/terrain.

grouse was good but I've outgrown it.
Took me less than a minute to go down the cut
