 Poster: A snowHead

What are conditions typically like at kicking horse at the end of december? I've never been there, and am an intermediate skier...they've still got more availability than other resorts which makes me slightly suspicious.

Based on some of the Instagram feeds from Kicking horse and Revelstoke and other places in BC it looks like they have loads of snow already.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

From all accounts current conditions are above average for this time of year. No reason to think late December shouldn't be fine (it usually is even in a "normal" year). I'm not sure I'd recommend kicking horse for an intermediate skier though, might be a bit limited.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I was there mid December 2019, amazing conditions but would echo @boarder2020, not a huge amount of terrain that isn't gnarly

If its this year I would think conditions would be above average for December. Generally December an be a bit mixed with some 'early season ' conditions.
Skied Louise last weekend and it was the best early season conditions I remember

@Mrmojo, it's really not "intermediate" terrain, if my memory serves ...

Maybe the "more availability than other resorts" is due to the fact it's not an intermediate friendly resort, therefore not have a wide appeal?

Have skied and boarded there. Lovely place, but,,.. it isn't really an intermediate ski place. Yes, you can get down the mountain., But it is, still, to essentially a heli ski mountain with a couple of lifts. Tolerable as an intermediate boarder, but imho tough on skis.
