Kicking Horse Pass
Just returned from a trip to Kicking Horse Pass in BC interior and was quite
impressed with the skiing terrain. Anyone with similar experience? -- Remove 'NOSPAM' for email |

I've been to Panorama last week and was thinking about going to Kicking Horse for a day (a trip from Panorama, including lift pass for a day, was CND$69.00), but someone told me that KH needed new snow and that the runs were rather bumpy and not so soft (and powdery!) as one expects there so I decided not to go. Is that true, or was someone just talking BS to me? Bye, Dragan -- Dragan Cvetkovic, To be or not to be is true. G. Boole No it isn't. L. E. J. Brouwer !!! Sender/From address is bogus.

Is that true, or was someone just talking BS to me? I find Kicking Horse one serious ski hill and loved it. It did not receive any new snow for 1 week and yet the snow remained reasonably soft. Very little scratchy spots. Thanks Don. So, I should have gone to KH. Damn. Next time I will. [snip] Whistler/Blackcomb all the time). One local skier who happened to be in our gondola referred Panarama as Icerama...Is there any truth? Don't know. We got some 25cm of fresh snow on the day of our arrival and it was snowing before as well so we were pretty happy. No ice spots, at least none for us eastern-type-skiers who happen to live in Toronto. Bye, Dragan -- Dragan Cvetkovic, To be or not to be is true. G. Boole No it isn't. L. E. J. Brouwer !!!

Is that true, or was someone just talking BS to me? I was in Kicking Horse last Wednesday and there was plenty of snow. It hadn't snowed since the previous Saturday so the powder was fairly tracked out but the low temperatures (-10 to -20 degrees centigrade) ensured the conditions remained superb. - Jason |

As Dragon already wrote, start with the resort link. I am sure you can
Google search for more interesting links. If you are going soon, I can show you how to get to some interesting runs one local showed me...not over the cliff stuff. -- Don (remove 'NOSPAM' for email address) "Gogh of Lôrien" wrote in message ...
