Only a couple of CMs fell overnight despite snowflakes falling early yesterday evening. Today snowfall will be heavy: with 15cm forecast for the valley and wind speeds already upwards of 115kmh in the high alpine!!! Today's alpine (1800m) high of -6 will add to a very wintery experience indeed ;)

Here's hopin' you had a great weekend!

The temperatures really dropped overnight and we have snow in the forecast tonight and through the week, with a freezing level at valley bottom through the week before it rises on the weekend. Let's get after it but be super cautious for out of bounds travel, given the fluctuating temperatures and heavy snow we've had overlying some surface hoar and a melt freeze cycle! ^_^

Happy New Year!!

After a warm week, we have some new snow arriving tonight through the weekend. It will be compiling above a firm melt freeze crust on south facing slopes however: dust on crust - until there is enough to not feel the firm bottom. Let's hope there's enough to reset the firm conditions before next week's cooler temps and fewer forecast accumulations.

Happy NYE!!

Wishing you all a fantastic start to 2026. Life can be an absolute rollercoaster but I hope you're grateful for the wonderful parts of the ride, as well as the lessons from the hard bits - I know I am <3

Thank you for listening.

As forecasted: there's a temperature inversion today with temperatures of above 2 Degrees at 1800m. It's a sunny groomer day ; Crabapple was groomed overnight; and QR credit card fraud occurred in a few Whistler Parking Lots on Dec 27th - check your statements!

Hopin' you had a terrific weekend and stayed warm on Saturday! Brrrr.

You won't need to layer up tomorrow when the freezing level shoots up to above the Peaks though! Sheesh.

13cm?? It looks more like 20cm on the snow ruler this morning and will be deeper in leeward terrain!

Glacier Chair cracked yesterday; the Alpine was wind pressed and catchy yesterday; Blackcomb ski-out to Base 2 is open; and today will be stormy with another 10cm expected throughout the day.

Happy Boxing Day ^_^

Merry Christmas!

Whether you're enjoying the great snow; or working your ass off this holiday period - and/or anything in between - I hope you find time for yourself and others this Festive period! ^_^

I'll hope to see ya on the Hill tomorrow - no Christmas Day episode - but I will be back to chat to ya on Friday Morning.

Crystal Chair was so sweet yesterday! Yes: the line ups are big - so I highly recommend skiing in good company ;)

The ski out isn't officially open yet but some are braving their rock skis, rather than downloading.

Take it easy though! It's a tiring time of year, let alone with all the Pow we're shredding on early season legs. It's okay to miss a day and we should be regularly investing in our bodies with some stretching and naps! Ha.

Hopin' you had a great weekend riding freshies! Yes: it's busy and to be expected with no ski out and alpine lifts closed due to gnarly winds. Expect stormy conditions today too and enjoy the lift line chats! ^_^

Happy Holidays! ;)
