just checking in with another quick report...
winter came around and decided to hang out. a series of cold storm systems have been passing through and have left whistler with fantastic conditions. coverage above 1200m (1/3 of the way up) is great - best it's been all season. the alpine areas have stayed very cool (-8C or lower) so the snow has remained very soft packed, with lots of powder still easy to find. crowds have been non-existent.
we're due for another big dump this weekend with temps staying cold. hoping for yet another big powder day. all you folks who cancelled your trips out here should re-book. things are going to be great right through april and may.
one other note - this is the last week for blackcomb! hard to watch it shut down with such good conditions
