BC Interior is good pow, Whistler is sketchy at best; rains a lot mid way up. lived in BC for five years and 3 years in Colorado, and always like CO better. Crested Butte, yup.

sketchy at best. hahaha. I'm an avid hater of whistler and I will even say that you are wrong. It does get rain at times, but it is far better than "sketchy at best".

where exactly did you live in BC?
