Whistler 2012 / 2013 - The Community Blog
Bears are still out and about? Damn…
Looks like my living situation is getting interesting. Myself and a few others have pretty much come to the realisation that finding a house for all of us in late November is virtually impossible so we’re all going looking solo for whatever is available.
Time for me to find a place for the whole season. Let me know if anything pops up!
I wouldn’t give up just yet. Sure, look for yourself as well, but keep an eye out in the long term listings.

I know it gets stressful this time of year but I often found the perfect house just when we were losing all hope. Keep looking and you never know what will come your way. Hit up every listing as soon as it comes out.
Good luck, let us know how it goes.
Yeah Fledz, as Jeremy has said don’t get too disheartened.. There are a lot of property owners who ask too much in October and don’t end up getting anyone in and then drop their prices in November to make sure that they actually get tenants for winter. Just keep looking on craigslist and the pique daily and I’m sure you’ll find a place.
Thanks guys, basically doing that now. Going to start shooting off emails next week so there’s only a week before I can actually see the places and the owners in person.
Better start packing 
Fledz: A little unorthodox but maybe try and organise viewings via Skype??? Worth a try maybe….
Could be done easily if needed, yep. I’m there soon anyway, plus I have 14 days at HI Whistler too so should be ok. Not stressed, winging it is part of the reason I’m going to Whistler in the first place. I want to challenge myself a bit, see what happens.
come on snow! getting colder over the next few days so fingers crossed. Been here 3 days now… so sick
I can neither confirm nor deny the rumours that the mountain may be opening early once again this season. A little birdy may have mentioned something to me in the past few weeks and sworn me to secrecy, but going by the end of this video I think you can come to your own conclusions 
Well if the little birdy that told you this info was correct! Then we will need a massive dumping asap… as the mountains are looking rather… bare.
Hope it’s true though!
Even if it’s pretty bare down the bottom they’ll open up Red and Emerald and have people download on the village gondola either from the top or midstation if they’ve made enough snow for the ride down to there. Looking at the alpine forecast on the website the temps are perfect for snowmaking so I’m sure they’ll have all the guns going 24/7 if they can.
Yeah, you can see the guns firin on the cams!!!!!
Also, I reckon the groomers will drag some of the built up areas to where it’s needed!!!!!
Is there a “go to latest post” button on this forum or am I just blind? It’s killing me.
I’m a little worse for wear today. Started my 3 day farewell last night, so it’s going to be a rough Monday 
It’s been confirmed, 17th opening 
Anyone want a wager lol
Booked my flight up to Seattle yesterday! 7th - 13th Jan!!
I reckon we should a have BW gathering on the 7th! Just putting it out there!
Oh and if there is any newbie snowboarders out there (I think someone is?) I will do a day on a board with you! But I think these Mountains need the respect that they deserve which from me is on Ski’s!
It’s been confirmed, 17th opening
Anyone want a wager lol
hope so!
