Ok. So Everyone pick your favorite resort, or choose delagates from each resort constituency and post the updates for the Mountain you most frequent. Say if some person goes to Sunshine, then post Sunshines updates. If someone frequents COP then post the snowgun progress.
Of course if you always want, you can go to a website and look for youself rather than getting biased and sometimes silly opinions from Regional Forumers.
I pick to give the current 10-4 on Fernie.
Its goin' RAIN....

man i totaly had that shit under CONTROL!!! last weekend, fisrt off when u buy fries u wait till their not looking and u dump an other plate of fries onto yours cuz they totaly screw you over wiht their half filled fries thingys.. then, u change a double deluxe burger wrapper with a reagular burger wrapper cuz they charge my looking at the color this is teh hardest part cuz its obviouy but when there people beside you, the cooks dont see. then u take a cookie or 2 and place the buger on top hiding it nicely and u finish by drinking ur drink and leaving the cup there so u dont have to pay. if ever ur hungry but u dont wanna pay 18$ try that, the fries and cookies will for sure work but the burger swap requires more stealth tho.

c.o.p actually has a decent beginner park now. its like, setup good and they finally fixed that stupid little flat box. theres the flat box to up-down rail to mini mini kicker (2 foot gap) and then on the right of that is a trashcan jib/down rail to bigger kicker (4 feet to landing maybe but it kicks you up) and a small hip (8 feet to the back maybe). its enjoyable if you have some spare time on your hands. id suggest taking a trip to the mountains instead

Lake Lowsy was fun yesterday. Who had fun on the rails, i had buckets of fun on the rails.
Fernies got snow to the tip top. One more dump and lots of fun will be had. But we open in about like 8 years give or take 429 weeks.

once it gets cold enough to blow snow its going to take a solid two weeks of blowing to build everything in the park...they're only aloud to blow snow at night now (if the wind is blowing east)...some new agreement they signed with whoever the fuck likes ruining peoples fun

also i just checked out the cop live cam and it looks like there is a cat in there moving some stuff or putting new stuff in, hope they are changing things around!

o well...heard what i heard...could care less...all i know is it has to be -5 for a steady amount of time before you guys will start blowing which isn't gonna happen for a while by the looks of things...might have to have my knees operated on anyways :S

I hear the uprail is better than it was before, and the barrel is now at the bottom in a pyramid of snow, sort of like it was last year.

yeah i was there tonight, the up rail isnt as steep or high at the end as it was before, you decide if thats good or bad. The barrel is way more fun now that its at the bottom. And the kink was more fun than the rainbow in my oppinion. An overall improvement id say.

tonight they started moving snow around at the top of the park. and theyre blowing like crazy.
some guy got a sled stuck and another guy had to go help him out. it was funny.
aaand someone should tell the gay liftie that it isn't necessary to STOP the chair until people put their bar down. so annoying!!!
