uhmm i dunno i might hit up seymour havnt been there in 8years
but for now i hoping there will be a snowfall in march

TRDood 01-19-2010 07:42 PM

i think sunpeaks and bigwhite would be the best ski places in BC right now.

unless you want a quick fix, i guess grouse is okay too (i have never been) but Seymour suck major asssssssssssssssss. you can fall asleep waiting to go up the lift and it only takes 1 minute to ski the whole thing down.

+Kardboard+ 01-19-2010 07:50 PM

I don't mind the quick fix. :D

Big White would be boss, but that's not always feasible. :(

jmvdesign 01-19-2010 07:55 PM

anybody been up to mt. baker recently?

K-Dub 01-19-2010 09:30 PM

Went on Sunday. It was drizzling/icy flakes in the morning, foggy at times. Cleared up after lunch, still cloudy but the sun was putting up a fight.

Conditions, the runs were decent, the sides were wet and sticky though, so even though they lookd like fresh pow, it was stiiiicky. Alright if you were on a blue/black as they were steeper, but at times they were near flats and so it sucked to suddenly slow down.

I had a lot of fun on their black runs, as there were cliffs & drops galore.

nismosx 01-23-2010 11:20 PM

man i miss snowboarding
found a funny clip of some idiot jumping off a chairlift on mt seymour lol
