Me and my wife bought a place on the north shore. This is our first few months on this side of the bridge, and its been fucking WET. I've got some high hopes. Just hoping I can find a way to prevent work from ruining my life for yet another season. 10 days or less just isn't gonna fucking cut it.

This rain is throwing a wrench into what basically was the perfect early-season.
All the pow above 1600m yesterday will be gone by the end of the day today.  | |

Cypress tickets page is updated to show the Niteowl rate. I would've been pretty irked if that went away. Considering the Silver Pass this year seeing as how I managed to go to about 15 times last year, mix of afternoons and nights.
Few of my buddies and I are planning to hit up Sun Peaks or Big White in December for a couple night, excited for that!

Fingers crossed this will be a good season, I've got my Big White pass already and plans to do a weekend at Fernie, possibly one at Red and one at Revy.

Looking forward to this season. Probably head up to whistler on the weekend for a day, and then several times over the season.
Hoping Cypress/local mountains gets some soon so I can put that pass to use.

I'd usually agree, but taking a sick day isnt on option this for me at this moment.

Does anybody have experience with the WB edge card 'direct to lift' charging? I just linked my credit card to my edge card, want to make sure 100% that it actually works. Should be going up Sunday for first season run on Monday

Ok. My friends loaded their edge cards up, but I'm not willing to drop so much moolah up front. So I have no problem doing one day passes. Worst nightmare though is waiting all that line with my friends to just have the edge card not read or something and have to go stand in the huuuuge lift ticket line, then back into the lift line

New to the Vancouver area, how do the Grouse/Cypress etc compare among each other for a quick evening? Cost, terrain, snow etc. When do they start getting enough snow to be decent/worthwhile?
I realize it won't compare to Whistler/Revelstoke/big mountains, but they're nice and close.
cheers

Depending on where you are coming from, grouse is likely the easiest. A bus takes you right to the gondola.
