We used to sit in our front room watching them coming down Grouse. Not to mention the sight of the Lions appearing all white as the clouds disappeared. Good times, enjoy.

I need to get my board waxed as well. I usually get a quick wax done at the top of whistler, but it's not the same as the full service.

More disturbingly, I don't have any mountains nearby but I think I might need to put the plow on the quad tonight.....

Nakiska (Alberta) is opening up one ski hill this weekend I have heard - the earliest they have ever opened up, ever.

Mind you, it's all man-made. :sneaky:

Anyway - La la la, still not listening. ;)

Edit: Ha - AC beat me to it.

In Halifax right now and, could be wrong, but thought I just saw a snowflake flutter down from the sky. Feels cold enough to snow ...
Oh shit.

It is indeed. The golden ears are snow-capped and actually look quite nice today. Though it will be rainy and miserable tomorrow probably which will wash it all off.

Yep, seeing the snow on the mountains on the way over the bridge this morning put a smile on my face! :D
