Well, everything’s turning to crap really (based on current forecasts). Looks like we’ve got a real pineapple coming through. Unless freezing levels drop by another 1000m at least, we’ll be swimming Monday/Tuesday.

I think I’ll be coming up on Saturday at least. Maybe Friday but I’m waiting to see what the weather does. Who knows about the alpine… the amount of rain they’ve been getting… I’m not counting on it.

I was told the other day that Crystal, Glacier, Harmony and Peak were scheduled to open Saturday but this rain must be having a pretty devastating effect up there

Avi risk then??

They’ll bomb it, and only open it if it’s deemed stable though?????

Whistler are pretty onto that side of things aren’t they?????

Oh yeah they are!

I was meaning that even if they have enough snow they might not open due to the risk!

David McColm: The Night Watchman

David McColm is not your ordinary Whistler photographer. His masterpiece time lapse images forego the familiar hero shots of big mountain athletes and picture-perfect ski models for a more artistic rendition of winter’s playground. Inspired by centrifugal skylines and mountainscapes, McColm’s quest to get the shot captures the microcosmic synergy that thrives in Whistler.
