Patrol told me every year the Blackcomb patrollers and the Whistler Patrollers go to war on April fools day. They said they once they greased up 5 pigs and set them loose in the round house. On the pigs they wrote a number for each pig - 1, 2, 3, 4, 6. So even after they caught them all, they were still looking for number 5 for hours until they figured it out. Awesome prank :D

It’s been so nice up there lately. How good was yesterday? Shaner scored for his birthday as did Dan for his last day of riding. So stoked with the riding up at Peak yesterday, hit some awesome runs with Shaner. Stoked I was able to catch up with Dan, Andy, and finney for a few runs in the afternoon too.

Have you guys checked out Whistler Blackcomb’s new phone app? Check it here: http://www.whistlerblackcomb.com/mobile/index.htm

It’s so sad leaving Whistler behind, but it was a fantastic day to bring the season to a close. I know I’ll be back for more another time…

Thanks to all the awesome people I got to shred with during the season cool smile I had such a fun time, and it wouldn’t have been the same without you guys.

You guys should have seen how hard Dan was charging yesterday. I was so stoked to see how much he has progressed over a relatively short time. Absolutely killing it! cool grin

You would have loved it. The jump was super steep and poppy, pretty much designed to make you go inverted. I know how you love being upside down… wink

Such an awesome day up there today. Pretty much spent the whole day lapping Peak with a combination of Shane, Chantelle, and Finney. 23cm overnight, snow was deep and just an epic day all up. I’m completely exhausted, such a satisfying feeling! I hope you all had a good day.  grin

Yep.. legendary day up there again. This season just keeps on delivering, couldn’t be happier after todays riding off peak chair. Thankfully they were able to keep red chair running after some mechanical issues as without it operating it wouldn’t have been anywhere near as amazing as it was.

Highlights included pretty much every run, even the last one down to the village on the hacked up groomers was still great fun despite the fact that my legs were just giving up by that stage haha.

Bring on tomorrow!!!

Today was sick. Hit up 7th cuz I got there pretty late at around 10.30ish (friend woke up late). No lift lines, laps of untouched pow so good =). The trees of Solar Coaster and Crystal was pretty good too. Kinda wished I hit up Peak Chair, I figured, because I got late, it’ll already be tracked out. But whatever, still a really good day ^^
