Lynn Kennen and I showed up at Kicking Horse ski resort in British Columbia, Canada at around 8:45am yesterday and ended up on the 4th gondola with our new friends Brad and Meagan.

Brad and Meagan showed us 2 great runs to start the day – one off CPR ridge and one into Feuz Bowl were wind buffed, powdery, and steep.

Back up the gondola and we saw the Terminator 1 hike was open.  Lynn and I charged up there, clicked, in and raced down the south side of the peak in 18-inches of perfect powder crossing no tracks.  It was a dream…

The lower zones were powdery and fun as well.  It’s a 4,000-vertical-foot powder run right back to the base of the gondy.

Back up Terminator 1.  Another killer powder run.

Back up Terminator 1 a third time.  A few more tracks, but still good.

Back up and over to Whitewall this time.  Whitewall was steep and a bit chewed up by the time we got there but still damn fun.

The weather was sunny-ish, but not full on sun.  Great visibility in the morning, then the light got a bit flatter in the afternoon.

Apres skiing we headed to the River House in Golden, B.C. and got a good taste of the best dive bar in town via the Halifax Aurevoir pita wrap thingy and it was good.

Today, they opened the north side of Terminator 2 and the north side of Terminator 1 and both were completely fresh.

The forecast is looking GOOD this week.
