    Alberta retro day?

    Park at Louise? This post is ultra retro itself. What are you going to spread off, your moms?

    Thank you Revelstoke

    I agree 100% with your thought on development, however, I'd rather have a place that doesn't have 80% of it's swank condos empty every weekend (bought by foreign investors) only to the detriment of the local townfolk. At whistler, ya, you pay an arm and a leg, but you knowwhat, you get a tonne...

    Terrible Ski Racing Crash.

    I saw that on the boob tube a couple of days ago. What a friggin' terrible crash. I almost can't believe that they had to amputate. What's nutz is that that guy was a world class athlete one day on the friggin' AUSTRIAN SKI TEAM (i.e number one) and now he's an amputee. The physical damage...

    Thank you Revelstoke

    $370k buys you a garage at the resort. It just boggles my mind why they make the same mistakes they make at Kicking Horse. There, they have all these swank new condos, etc, and they're effectively empty all the time! Why? bigwigs go and buy them starting at $500K and then show up two...

    Thank you Revelstoke

    Ya, pay WHISTLER NOW prices even though it won't be Whistler for another 30 years, if ever. Pricing is outta whack. RMR will be another Kicking Horse. THey'll have all these grandios plans, but only the 1st couple of lifts will go up cuz they'll figure out that there aren't close to enough...

    Does a sunshine/marmot or RCR pass count? $33 is DAMN cheap.

    Kicking horse Golden Question

    PANO's not really worth it unless it's had a meter of snow in a week. Taynton bowl's the only thing worth the venture there...actually, the on-hill accomodations and massive hottub are a nice touch....but if you're base is in Golden, you won't have access. Just curious, what's the drive from...

    Calgary University

    I'm not raggin' on the U of C, but the facts are that 90% of the people that go to university/college say they their institution...and they made the best choice. This is for two reasons: 1) Would you spend $40K on something and then say it sucks? 2) These people don't get out enough to see...

    How's kicking horse this year?

    I've been in that hostel for Breaky before.....not a bad looking place. Breakfast was marred by having to completely drool over two hot skier chicks, though. What a shame. I drove up to KH yesterday and good friggin' LORD was it worth it. Everything was ill. Even caught some good light in...

    Fernies boundary policy

    Actually, all-in-all, RCR has disappointed me big time this year. Louise has been substandard as well. Its maintenance has been noticably substandard compared to even last year....and I'm not even talking about the fact that we've had less snow this year.

    Fernies boundary policy

    I've actually been pretty disappointed with the avy control unit at Fernie this year. It seems like they spend more time trying to catch stupid poachers than they do trying to open up terrain. I love the mountain, its snow, and I generally like all the crew that I've met, I just get the...

    How's kicking horse this year?

    Any recommendations for cheap places to stay in Golden? My buddy and I drive up there from Calgary all the time and end up coming back same day. It's quite the hike for a single day. Are there any local "2-4s of brew for a couch" exchange programs in Golden?
