Hey, I'm from out East. Just found out someone is taking me to Whistler next Friday, the 9th, but then going cross country skiing. Could anyone recommend me some runs with interesting terrain, and not the park. Any nice bowls, tree skiing, pillow stuffs...

I don't really know what I want but I feel like it's a big hill and any tips could help.

Thanks!!

Or... if someone wants to meet up to shred, that'd be rad.

fraggle rock off of crystal chair is pretty good there ar some smallish cliffs in an open area and then it drops off into slightly tighter trees. to get to it just take rock and roll and then hike for like two seconds next to a metal pole you should see some tracks but if you dont all the better.

Hey, that day... it happened. I was fairly rad, though like plus 8 so not a whole ton of pow. Hiked over and did the lakside bowl twice and the sun bowl a bunch. That was pretty much the highlights, it was more cool just for the experience of being in the mountains. It was also my first day on snow this year and I am wiped, goodnight.
