sweet! though, I shudder to think how long the lines will be and the parking hard to find... I don't know about this thursday idea either... I have friday off, but I work thursday :( damn, so close too!

don't even worry about parking at grouse, it's one bus from the seabus and that is soo much easier than trying to find parking.

ya, but that's if you live in Vancouver... which I don't... come to think of it, I don't think I have ever *been* to grouse... I usually go to manning, whistler, or hemlock...

Thinking I might go up Seymour tomorrow. Grouse for free sounds good!

[mushmellow]

i went up th blackcomb on saturday. the conditions wernt all that great but for the opening weekend (or second?) which is early november it was awesome! i cant wait for whistler to open! it was soooo much fun and refreshing to see snow....how i love snow! I waited all year long for a good snowboarding season and here it comes!!

[shorerider]

skiers never get any love around here. humph.

[Sue Bitch]

very excited for this year!!
and i am even teaching my bro which is a bonus since he does not seem to suck

[liquidblue]

I heard blackcomb was good a few days ago. Give them another week and Im sure they will get a dump of snow. It looks like Its gunna be a good season this year.

Cant wait to hit up whistler/blackcomb. less than a month and Im moving up there, woot.

[galaxie]

It's OK Derek I'm a skiier!

And I can't wait to hit that sweet sweet powder!

[stringbeans]

did anyone go up today? how were the conditions?

ps fuck you guys for ruining my back yard

[tmh]

went to cypress yesterday. was fkn tite. nice n foggy on the lower end of the mountain, and really sunny up top.

skychair wuz closed, which wuz tite cuz we hiked it all the way to the top of skychair (made it in 40 minutes.. so tired) and rode down the hoards untouched snow, which made it totally worth the trip up.

it should be warm these next few days, so it'll get a lil icey layer ontop of the snow, but the groomin should fix that up.
