Snow Days
Today, as it was valentines day I decided to spend the day with my true love.... the mountain. She started off a little shy but soon opened up and become more beautiful as the day went on.
Another quick update unfortunately, busy days... I promise to bring more details reports and photos soon.
I woke up this morning to the sun lighting up the mountains, and thought it would be a great day to hit the slopes, due to the 70cm+ in the last 24 hours, the bluebird day and the fact that the alpine didnt open yesterday...
A nice and healthy looking snow report for this morning from Whistler Blackcomb, Its great to see the freezing level drop to valley bottom and to have some fresh snow after a week of rain. With more snow due overnight, it should be an awesome weekend ahead. Last Updated: 1/15/2010 7:06:43 AM

Apologies for the late update. I was almost tempted to take a day off Tuesday as recently I seem to be drowning in milk with not enough time for cereal, or something (this great blog post will explain this analogy for those who are scratching their head at this point).
I was heading up solo but called a riding buddy to meet up and see if he was up for a Flute hike, some other tomfoolery, shenanigans and hijinx on the hill. Fortunately, the day lived up to our expectations for the most part.
I really enjoyed riding Blackcomb today, I've neglected it a little this season as I now live in Bayshores (an area near Creekside) and its easier for me to get to the Creekside gondola for Whistler Mountain but I'm glad to say I'm really enjoying riding Blackcomb recently and today was no exception.
