I'll also be in black and the last to wear a hat, typically a head band, and candy stripe boots. Waxing skis tonight.
Wishing I was skiing the 11-12" at Turner today have to hike slackcountry at Silver instead.
On a bright note as long as it snows Tue, Wed, Thur Silver plans on opening the bottom of chair 4 next weekend, TNFG still closed but rope duckers were raving about great skiing yesterday.
13/1 Rain at the resorts. Hit Lookout and it was rather good, given it rained at base, 1"+ at the the top looking forward to Silver tomorrow, should be another 1-2".

Thinking Schweitzer this weekend if snow looking good, and def Silver on 29-31, as coming up with our local Desert Ski Club. Skied Mission Ridge on Sunday, it got 3 inches of new overnight and about 2pm it started dumping. Base is good, so it would've been a fine day there today ...

Lookout and 49N both reporting 3" yesterday Silver should have gotten it too but not reporting fresh snow, Schweitzer 1", Red and Whitefish no new. Lookout was fun with 3" in under 2.5 hr.
Wed the skiing at Lookout was still very nice. Silver reopened Thur. with the 2-3" still very nice skiing and no one showed up, very nice bluebird and fresh snow.
Collegiate races this weekend.

Massive storm hitting Cascades this weekend. We nearly headed up Silver way, but opted for Bachelor - some 20+ inches forecast for Friday and more Saturday. And it's cold.
Gotta love El Nino springs in the Cascades

Due to an incredible day of skiing and all the riders who showed up for skiing on the 10th Silver will be open the 17th and again the 24th for the annual Leadman triathalon. The fresh powder skiing in the morning was fantastic but with no clouds it got warm in the afternoon. Still should be quite good next Sat.
Fernie is having a two day party called Fernival with live bands next weekend.

Well it started to rain after an hour and a half and cleared off around 2 pm fortunately they opened at 8:30 am and will do so again this coming Sat, Silver will run lift # 2 till 1:30 pm.
Good luck to the Leadman competitors without which the Mtn would not be open this coming Sat.
After that it's drive to Sunshine or ???? Sunshine Village open till 24 of May.

Good call on 49N may need to keep going north with this warm storm. Great skiing Wed over 8" by midday and that is what Silver is reporting this A.M. May have to go cross the border this weekend. Castle is calling.

Blew it, stayed home to save the fun tickets for later.
This morning Castle is reporting 43cm mid mt and 27cm fresh snow at base, temp is -21C. I really should have gone this weekend, more expected for Sat.
Silver was very nice for the first 2 hours yesterday then the snow started to set up and I heard from a rider at Schweitzer it was the same. 2" new at Lookout, Silver is not reporting any new. both above freezing at base.

Fresh snow lots of fresh snow Gortonator you better rally. 23" for the Wed opening at Lookout, Silver will have 15" for thursdays opening. 49N and Schweitzer received significantly less snow 3-4" at base and 7-9" on top.

Skiing was great with the 23" at Lookout should be just as good at Silver today.
