Happy Friday!

Despite some warmer temperatures mid-mountain last night, today's break in precipitation before the oncoming storm should be a good day to enjoy some social laps (40 trails open across WB)and keep building up those muscles! It's a long season though: despite yesterday's great early season coverage, be cautious out there ;)

OPENING DAY!!!!

How good was it to hear the Avi bombs yesterday?

Keeners/campers were spotted yesterday and even some 6am-ers at Blackcomb base before the Corral could even curl it's way towards HandleBar! Here's expecting the base lift times to be a fraction of last year - what was the longest time you waited? So have yourselves a terrific opening day shredding 6cm (26cm+ in the last 7 days) before the temperatures and winds rise this afternoon through tomorrow and especially the weekend. See ya up there!

Just two more sleeps until opening day!

With a rain warning again in effect for the coming days, expect Thursday to be soggy: get your clothing re-DWR'd ;)

With a ski-out to the bottom looking very doubtful too, we'll be enjoying giving our spent legs a rest by downloading!

Where will you be aprésing on opening day? Stinky's on the Stroll will be going off and Coast Mountain Brewing have a launch party for their new Tantalized Golden Ale with Foxy Moron on the decks from 3-5pm ^_^

Today we're joined by phenomenal human Chad Sayers in the Local Lounge! Chad shares more about his journey as a pro-skier and travel photographer; his wonderful and very personal new book Overexposure; soul skiing; industry changes; journaling; and how hockey is a great pre-season warm up ;)

YOU can win a 4-pack of Coast Mountain Brewing's super tasty Double IPA: The Alpinist - just by listening and answering the question I ask, first, by email @ [email protected]

Good luck!!

WOAH!!! How you doin'? Stayed dry and safe? I hope so! Remember to check out the WCSS's Whistler Navigator: it's a great resource for local amenities and resources, especially in times of trouble!!

There is tonnes of info and a plethora of local events in today's episode! Once opening day arrives and the Podcast returns to 5 episodes a week, episodes will be a lot shorter ^_^ Teehee

Morning!!

Apologies for the super late upload :/ Tech difficulties this morning! Sigh.

We have more snow to fall in the alpine but it's followed on Sunday by warmer conditions at elevation and rain!

Got any Local events to share on the Podcast? Holla at [email protected] ^_^

The Whistler Pulse is back after a 3 week hiatus! Whoop whoop! Thanks for continuing to listen ^_^ Please get in touch with feedback on what you'd like to hear more of on this podcast at: [email protected]

What a week: the valley's first snowfall; tornado warnings south of Whistler; Cornucopia is on; Ski and Snowboard movie premieres are well underway; and all this snow and rain means it's a great opportunity to enjoy local restaurant deals and our Arts and Culture scene!

I can hear the clock ticking until opening day :D

Happy Tuesday!

Happy belated Thanksgiving!

I hope your last day in the bike park was absolutely terrific and that you were able to spend time with friends and family. It's a time of reflection and can be a very lonely time of year. If you are feeling overwhelmed in any way, please reach out. There are so many resources in our community to help: the WCSS; Howe Sound Women's Society; Drop-in outreach at the Library, etc <3

I'm sorry to report that the Podcast will be taking a short break so that I can visit my Family <3 It will be back in November and with Winter looming, I would love your feedback and input!!! Have some ideas? Want to sponsor the 'Be vocal about a Local' initiative? Please get in touch: [email protected]

Take it easy and enjoy the Foraging for me ;)

THANK YOU!

Hopin' you get to enjoy today's sunshine: cooler temps and showers will dominate the weekend unfortunately.

Got any weekend plans? There are lots of events to keep you entertained ;)

Happy Friday!

This Tuesday episode is stacked with info!!!

Including the latest winner of the 'Be vocal about a Local' initiative!! <3

Hang tight with the rain today and tomorrow: take a look at the snowy alpine to remember if it's snowing in the valley, it'll be dumping in the alpine soon enough ;)

Lotsa like x
