Helen Beaumont, Thanks for posting that.
For those of you who might be coming to Whistler with families, children are welcome in the GLC until 7pm, so do please bring them if you want to.
Look forward to meeting some of you then.

Sounds like fun. Arriving on 20th for 8 days so will be there! Haven't been to Whistler for 10 years so am expecting great things. Sounds like the snow conditions are improving which is good.

WTFH
Have to agree with Robbie on that one - seems a liitle unfair since you've not been here and are just quoting from the rumour mill , but if you want to play it like that....
Your local slope is Milton Keynes, mine is Whistler and Blackcomb. Who's looking smug now?
I have nearly 50 days good skiing under my belt, event in the worst of the rain I've not really had a bad day, and 50 still to do, you have a few days in Colorado - wahoo!!?
I spent quite a while skiing in the US last year and I'd give them all up for a few days in W/B even in a bad snow year.
US apres - WTF is that?

stuarth,
Do keep up updated with the conditions Stuarth. Would be good to get things first hand. Foxy and I are just having a laugh on the other thread.

Robbie, 21 sleeps!!!! Fox, we originally planned to go to Colorado or even Tahoe, so don't make me feel even worse about it. , Too much psne now to change our plans . Still, some you win, some you lose, skiing anywhere's a gamble these days.
However, both our trips across the pond have had disappointing conditions now, so probably won't risk it again.

Helen Beaumont, Thank you.
Am sure it will be ok in 20 sleeps - the power of positive thinking (or maybe just denial!!!)
Seriously, glad it didn't happen a week later. It was so silly, i only got up to make a cup of tea and just stepped badly and my foot turned right over. Made the cat run out of the room and shoot out through her cat flap, i yowled so hard

Well it snowed a bit today, not much just a dusting. Temperatures started off pretty warm but dropped quite a bit throughout the day. Runs down to the red chair were pretty slushy with a sprinkling of rocks!! Snow in the west bowl was pretty good though the entrance (coqolorum) has got a bit tracked out (unless you want to do Mondays which is a little on the scary side!)
Suffering from the month of unheard of sunny weather a bit, it's forecast to snow a bit more over the next few days (and not rain!) hopefully this'll spruce things up.
Robbie, how's your ankle doing?

Robbie,
Purple is good! The sooner the bruising comes out, the faster you'll get better. You should be able to get some heat in there by now (or better still, alternate hot and cold baths: I can remember getting really funny looks at work after tearing my ankle ligaments, and alternately transferring my foot from a bucket of hot water to one full of ice-water. Worked, though).
Combine this with a lot of cycling, with as extensive a pedal action you can manage (stationary bicycle if you don't fancy risking traffic with a dicky ankle) to work it out.
See you in the GLC in 3 weeks. You'll be the one on crutches - yeah?

I ordered my snowheads tee shirt so you can all find me easily (even without the crutches - i hope!).
