How much longer is grouse open? I was driving today and could still see what looked like a lot of snow left. I tried navigating the site, but couldn't find a calendar or anything.

I'm going up with a buddy Saturday, Tegz. Do you wanna join us? Also, if you change your mind and want to come up Saturday instead, let me know too, Raybot. It wouldn't hurt to ride with some more Grouse junkies next year.

I'm advanced and my buddy is better than me. The thing is, I just recently started playing with tricks and trying the park out, so I'm just up there to have fun. Let me know! I'll be there at around noon.

I think I'll be wearing my Canucks jersey that day. I'll have white Electric Eg2's and riding a Rome garage rocker. What time are you going to be up there? My friend wants to be up there at around 11:30 now.

haha good idea wearing the jersey! watch out though, from my experience, groomed snow tends to turn white into yellow and i learned the hard way with an expensive white bomber

i'm planning to get the first run in around 10am. i'll most likely be doing the cut all day with the newbs so i'll keep an eye out for ya!

How much of the mountain is open? Are those dirt/rock patches all over the Cut?

Only the cut and the park were opened. Most parts that had patches were blocked off, and if it wasn't, it was easy to spot. I was there both days and had a blast! Btw, I was trying to look for you tegz, but had no luck. Gonna try to hit Grouse atleast once more this coming Saturday morning. Anyone else going? Let me know!! I wanna test out my new Skate banana setup!!!
