This group sucks, nobody here. Any ideas on where all the bc skier's
are? (other than skiing)

Try telemarktips.com, web sites have sucked a lot of the content out
of newsgroups.
This group wakes up from time to time but it does seem particularly
dead this season. If you post a question on conditions someplace or
gear issues you will probably get some replies.


Little to no snow in many places does hurt a ski group's traffic.

Or you could just post that alpine touring is superior to telemarking,
that's always good for entertainment.

Here in Northern BC (and the rest of BC from what I've heard), we've
been having our best season of the last several years. Our snow depth is
easily a couple of feet.

I haven't been up to ski yet this year but we've got good snowpack in
California, we didn't before this last set of storms. The Pacific
Northwest seems to be having a banner year, Mt Hood has 7 to 8 feet,
Bachelor in the same range. So the West is looking good right now, as
far as I can see. The Rockies got dumped on over the past couple of
weeks.

Googling around I see the Alps has no - or marginal - skiing yet. I
hope they get snow sometime soon.

Because the lines over here are long enough already.
