For those of you that did not hear or see
The North Shore's best ski resort received close to 2 feet yesterday, and thats in the parking lot. Good news for us here in the city---bummer whist only got 4 cm, but not really a surprise.
By the looks of it Seymour will be good to go in the very near future.

No way! I didn't hear, that's dope news. Funny that grouse only got a little bit.
Do you think it'll be worth hiking this weekend, or would whistler backcountry be better?

2 feet is a bit of a stretch.. but there is enough to set up any rail or jib.

I wish dude, I have exams still-- 1 today, 1 monday, 1 Wednesday all hard with lots of reading.  On the plus side, all three North Shore Mountains open tomorrow, with grouse devirginizing their new greenway chair.  I am considering Baker on sunday.  They are predicting an opening on Sunday, and are supposed to get 40-60cm today/tomorrow, which would be pretty epic for sunday, considering its going to be -20c.  If anyone is down for Baker on sunday, hit me up.

Yo! everyone:
today was the first day of mushroom park
and in good ole seymour fashion its the sickest park on the north shore right now. expect it to exceed whistler within the next 24 hours so thatll save you the drive and the carbon footprint!

heres whats up:
street style square bar down bar
flat corrogated pipe
olly bar with hippy hop option
flat bar rail (mellow)
flat box (mellow)
kicker for daddy backflips

be forewarned that freemour is a foreign myth and we will be checking tickets, but its really cheap right now so shouldnt be a problem

the snow is really sick right now, super soft, and were in the park keepin it tight all day. feel free to roll up and give input on what youd like to see done, or if you want a feature patched up

also we'll be addin features all day tommorow so come shred!
Peace

The BC was killer yesterday. So deep and so light. Really unusually good for local hills.

    1 round bar 25 foot down rail

Middle:
    Corrogated pipe on downslope (to be completed tommorow)

    Pole Jam rail (basically a rail that shoots you up -super fun)

    and something else

Ill have pictures up in the next 2 days! Peace
