Who was on the Sea to Sky?

Yesterday.
Epic day in Whis, as I'm sure anyone who was there could testify.
The ride home: not so much.
It took 9 hours to get home from the village!
That was rediculous.
The highway was shut because a semi blocked the road near horseshoe bay, and there was tons of snow. People were apparently stuck in line all the way to lions bay, because there were hundreds of snowmen on the side of the road. I even saw an octopus made of snow, and a snow figure giving it doggy style to some other snow figure.
Who else had to experience this?

yesterday was so epic. I just spent the night and came back this morning because I heard the highway was terrible.

The snow sucked today. Huge rain crust layer. And the highest you could go was the top of the Wizard. Yesterday was the day.

What!? Like in half? That sucks...
At least there's a bit of time before the snow will be nice again, for you to pick up some new ones...

Dude I hit it too around 3:15, from the cat track down, so unbelievably awesome with faceshots that made me stop because I couldn't see anymore, until I had to cut left of that cliff and there wasn't much snow. looking back up it did look a lot more bony from the bottom, I got away without any damage though.
VD chutes were so unbelievable all day

ya I hit like a 3 stage pillow in the middle and the snow was so deep that I couldnt really see the landing good, and landed pretty flat in like 5 feet of snow and go to ski out and the nose of my ski was snapped. Then I had to ski the bottom gnarly part with the broken ski which sucked, but I managed.
