Awesome deal - I heard that it might be a one-day only, so grab it while you can.

I just bought one because I figure it'll pay for itself based on 2 days at each of SSV, LL and Revy but the 50% off thing seems like a bit of a rip off based on what the Skibig3 one day lift ticket rate apparently is. Are they really trying to charge people 176 bucks a day?

Like... #### right off with that. I thought 125 was bad.

Maybe we need to move the conditions discussion to the climate change thread....

Just FYI in case anyone ordered their Louise Plus cards online like I did - there was a check box to get them mailed to your home address. If you checked out as a guest like I did apparently this was not actually connected to anything so nothing gets mailed out and they don't notify you. So I finally called today and was told I can come pick them up anytime or they can mail them today and it could still be up to two weeks to arrive.

Year after year I continue to be disappointed with how far behind the local resorts are with respect to technology and services compared to the bigger US resorts. Oh well, minor inconvenience but still FYI for those who didn't know like I did.

Looks like it could be a historically bad year for snow.

Great opening weekend in fernie.

Now it’s a monsoon raining almost all the way to the top of Bear chair.

If it cools down bring the ice skates. Make sure they’re sharpened.

Oh it's probably going to be a terrible year. But I would say this week is the first time it's reasonable to have a minor complaint that it sucks. And then you get one more for the remainder of 2023. After that you can complain as much as you'd like

Terrible is looking like it might be an understatement, like historically bad with terrain possibly not opening. marmot looks like a wasteland up top. The long range forecast is not great either. I’m booked for sunshine village just after new years, hoping for two big dumps before then to get stuff open.

Yeah Sunshine is having a terrible year.

Louise isn't doing so bad though after the recent storm. They're at 90% of average right now and only 10mm equivalent (10 cms of snow) away from being right at their normal mid point.

It looks like Sunshine is getting dumped on now.

22cm in the past 24 hours. I’ve just had a look at the webcam and it is puking down at the Goats Eye chair.

I’ll keep doing the snow dance from here.

Bought some new (used) touring skis yesterday, so glad someone is getting snow somewhere!

Louise this weekend was super fun. Ptarmigan trees were great and lower meadow lark was closed, but you could dip the fence and get fresh tracks. Hopefully we get another dump soon and can get into west bowl.

Another great day at Louise. Also fun trying my new board: 173cm Libtech. Longest board I've ever had by far. Feels like I strapped a supercharger onto my board. Got a warning to slow down on my very first run. Oops.
