Anyone been up to Seymour lately? Both chairs still have snow? Or is it looking bare and brown like the Grouse?

I was up in big white last weekend and the conditions were great. If you wanna board or ski you need to leave the lower mainland.

Mystery Lake was closed though due to bare patches, so i never got the check that out.

Whistler's condition still very good. But it's packed way more then usual, With all local mountains being garbage or worst right now.
Highly recommend it

You can see the parking lot closures and stuff. You can also tab over to transportation and it will give you details about access to whistler

i just got back from Seymour, not a lot of people there and a lot of fresh snow
the only thing that sucks is for night riding there's only one chair open
definitely worth going up tho 4PM to 10PM is $36, or you can get a rest of the season pass for $100

But apparently they close at 7pm?!!! major thumbs down from me since they already had to shut down the mountain for 2-3 weeks early in January.

i was in whistler last weekend and the conditions were great. Their should be adequate parking now since the olympics are gone. The only thing too watch out for is the creekside condola. During the olympics they closed it off so if you start the day there or end up on that section of the mountain your screwed. You have to bus it back to the village. I dont know if they are reopening it during the paraolympics but i doubt it.

I was at silverstar and the conditions were pretty good, some fog here and there but pretty much empty and having the whole mountain to ourselves!
Someone tell me if Cypress is worth it...I heard its expensive, and they have lots of runs closed and they close early + its packed... doesnt seem worth it IMO
