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.

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. Quote:

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. Posted via RS Mobile | |

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