Anyone see this recent one

Takes a bit to get going, but then it's worth it.

I think I would go close to hanging up my boots after a run like that because I think it would be a long time before you got another one like it!

It's been like that here twice this year, first time we got 75+ cms

then last week we got 70 cms.

Unfortunately I had to work so missed it

Talking to friends today on the chair, People were getting stuck all over the mountain and the black runs weren't steep enough if you turned.

I haven't had a day like that for a few years.

When people say they needed a snorkel they aren't kidding!

You're out East Sammer?

There are a few good vids from Jay Peak recently:

Nope.

As far east in British Columbia as you can get though

Vids look familiar.

Here's what I missed last week.

Legendary Powder!

He gets a face shot in his car at the start of the video!

I was in Fernie 2004-05 - worst season in living memory I think and didn't manage to get any days like that

Work also does indeed suck.
