Out skiing.
If you don't like the content, make some.

Any ideas on where all the bc skier's are? (other than skiing)


Out skiing. Only here briefly. Prepping for the weekend again and then
a trip to Xxxxx.

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


r.s.a. more people post when there is less snow.

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

Ah Basic Trolling 101.

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.

Just getting started.
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.


Say what?
First it was thin. It rained and drizzled my first day skiing (I didn't
bother venturing off the packed track: new skis) so I went in, took a
friend to late lunch went to see a film in Reno. Resorts weren't much
better on coverage (off piste was rock ski territory).
Slide-Rose was closed (1/2 of Rose wasn't worth the ticket).
KT was a joke. Alpine was windy (a lot of the new fallen snow just got
blown off). We'll see about the next storm.

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.


They have still glaciers they can ski on.

DCraig.
Because the lines over here are long enough already.


Send them to Vail.
