So Kicking Horse got 100 cm of new snow...and we're at Revelstoke...who got snow as well...

Posted on 16:54 by Unknown
Not that much but enough for about knee deep. Of course on the very first run I went head over heels in the new snow. All I remember flying through the air was hoping I don't get injured like immediately on the first run of the first day. I also had trouble finding my one ski that popped up. It was basically fun punishment but more work than expected at that altitude. I can't even imagine what a foot of powder would even look like after this. Extreme ski rentals for sure.

This is where we were staying.



As you can see they get a fair bit of snow here. Snow bank at the McDonalds.



May not look like much but its about of a foot of fresh at 9am.



Around noon it started to melt, was around 0 at the base a little colder up top.



Still some powder around though...



Glades were a little choppy after it melted down...



We couldn't have asked for better weather though.



We got some more snow in the afternoon too. Awesome.



Time to relax.



I'm pretty sure we overdid it today. Actually no joke Kevin just got a calf cramp as I'm typing this sitting down on the bed right now. 5 days of this left.
