ya shitty seasons in the PNW...
I would go to Kicking Horse. Same terrain as whistler with absolutely no people. and all the backcountry leads you back to the gondola. Ski pow under the lift until noon, anyone?

Sounds like you need to come to Whistler. Everything is sick, and you still haave a park. It's kinda expensive, but it's worth it, trust me.
Or, you could head to Utah. They've got some sick pow, and there's always Park City.

I think whistler pretty much blows away the other mtns. Plus their season pass is only 500 dollars for a youth. Whistler it is!!!! Think 900 dollars per month income is enough for food/rent?

And last year was sick by the way! 5degrees with champange powder... Cold but sick. I would hardly say shitty. Rant over.

basically.
we have a poor excuse for a park, it consists of 3 boxes, and 2 small jumps. but you can find better natural stuff

working at a mill sucks. Good wage, but time crawls by so slowly.
What about jackson hole? Ive heard good things about that place.

If you pass up on Whistler it will be the biggest mistake in your life. Especially if you are being paid for doing nothing.
Decide quick, property goes fasst in Whistler. If you want something cheaper than usual there.
Utah is good, but only iff you can drive. If you get like passes to like 3 resorts, that's awesome but you gotta drive.

i would say count out summit county if you're serious about BC, the storms are few and far between, though it's the place to be for park...if i were you i'd do squaw/alpine.
