hey guys thanks for the offers! but i don’t actually have a phone as of yet, i brought an unlocked aussie phone but apparently since its not a smart phone i cant get any pre paid sims with it :(

inside the roundhouse and rendezvous there are free telus phones that you can use to call local numbers so you can use those when on the hill trying to catch up with any of us.

I’ll be riding on Sunday for my birthday so feel free to give us a call during the day and we’ll organise a time to meet up as I should be with a few people.

Rider’s Blog: Day 25

Had a really fun day cruising around Whistler Mountain for Finney’s birthday. Rhys and Alysha just got into town and it was their first day riding today. We had a solid group including Finney, Blake, Chantelle, Rhys, and Alysha.

The snow is in good condition and the base is looking good in most areas. The bottom half of the mountain isn’t doing as great, mainly due to the warm temps and wet snow / rain we’ve received lately. Still, it’s pretty fun out there!

Looking forward to heading to Crystal Lounge for Finney’s birthday later.

Rider’s Blog: Day 26

Considering the rain down the bottom overnight, it was a cracking day of riding. A big crew again to start the day as everyone backed up from Finney’s birthday drinks last night. There was 6cm of new snow overnight but I think we found significantly deeper up the top.

We did a coupe of fun hit run laps while the alpine was still being bombed. Then we got super lucky; just as we got of Red Chair, Peak Chair opened and we got straight on. We did a really nice run down the main face, most of us coming through Key West (Marc and Finney hit a wind lip and ate it haha). Even Whistler Bowl was super fresh and we had a sick run getting to the main face.

Got straight back on Peak Chair and went over to VD Trees. We had a really nice run through there. I found a really nice line which hadn’t been touched; in fact, we all found lines like that. No one had been through there.

Next run we headed over to Bagel Bowl and had another super fresh run all down Bagel Bowl and through the trees to Highway 86. We had a nice train going down the cat track - good fun! We decided to go up and repeat what we just did, so we hit Bagel Bowl to Highway 86 again. Lots of fun and a very satisfying day on Whistler Mountain.

Had a great past few days riding with everyone. Can’t get enough of hit run at the moment, tonnes of fun and it’s got a great flow to it. Took today off from riding to give the body a bit of a break. Had a decent fall yesterday digging the nose in when riding switch which had my shoulder and elbow hurting a bit but it’s feeling good now so will be back up the hill tomorrow.
