Me and my buds are heading out on a little early season trip this week and i was wondering if Sunshine or Lake Louiseis is in better early season shape.  I've looked at their sites but i wouldn't mind the the opinion of someone in the area. Thanks

Both hills are super legit right now considering it's NOVEMBER. I was at the Lake on Saturday and the Shine errrrryday since then and I think the Shine is a bit better. Coverage is good and the park is a ton of fun.

Soup and I are heading to the lake tomorrow like he said, we might shoot some photos to give you an idea of what's crackin.

Shine's better right now and will continue to be.  Wait 'til about mid-DEC and the Lake with take over....because once it gets good, it is better than Sunshine.  Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of sunshine too though.

imo, they both have lots of snow, shine with more but louise just has a huge terrain advantage over shine so that's where id be headed.

After shredding today, I have to say, the Shine is much, much better than the Lake at the moment. Rocks ahoy at the Lake.

other than the park being pretty fucking legit at the lake (flat down box into two flat bars, into down rail, into a JUMP) the shine is much much better. quite a bit more base and the park is still pretty sick.
