I will be living in Revy for the winter so it's a short drive. Got a pass to both mountains though. Seattle to Revy is about 7 hours and Seattle to Stevens Pass is about 1 1/2 hours incase your wondering.

I knew this would happen. Decide to work one more week before I head up and Revy decides to open the week I would of been there. 

Revelstoke opens for the 28th and 29th for a peep show.

Then opens for the season of Dec 4th.

Cheers to Winter

so, Red is still saying december 18th or whatever ridiculous date they put on their website, but my roommate just got called into work today to start getting the lodge set up... nothing official, but they are working on getting it open for what we believe to be the 4th or 5th.

sanp!  the Star does open on Friday. !!!!!

ya, I really hate all this secret opening day garbage. some hills are worse than others. But
I have come to expect it. Silver Star always opens a few days early, and its always a big secret5 when the back side lift will spin ... then they tell you a day ... and you book it off work .. and they open it the day before.

snow is sick, a little wind blown in spots ... and a touch crusty for the last 1/5 of the run. I heard they are blasting snow off the head walls. its a shame,  they are super deep.

again with the change up. On the weekend the plan was for the 5th. So much for my plans of skiing on Sat, it will be bombed out.

Its good for locals, but I am not paying to ski there this weekend anymore. Hello snowmobile.
