The honest word on mountain conditions
Village
Summit
MAR 16
Snow falling during the wee hours has begun accumulating through 6AM. Enjoy early groom this morning with corduroy on well packed pistes. Central left Sun Bowl features along with all your daily regulars. Lower mountain should be pretty soft into the PM with warming temperatures. Nice conditions on a groomed Stumbock's yesterday should still ride well today, with forays into adjacent terrain finding good tracked powder skiing. Conditions will evolve through the week, so take advantage of top drawer skiing today!
Taynton Bowl has been riding really well after the recent big snowfall; as good as we've seen all season, rivaling wicked December days! Good snow consistency has been soft yet supportive. Big recent snowfall has continued to give superb turns! Great lines all weekend in the broad Monster terrain. Excellent turns yesterday afternoon in both untracked among trees and skied powder in Ktunaxa and Stinger. Rip it up back there today while the going's good!!
Nordic trails are back to prime new years form, skiing very well in general. Get it while it's cold! Multi-use trails were all groomed over the weekend giving good fat biking and snowshoeing conditions. Check the website or in person for more information and to purchase passes.

Eyes to the skies, head in the clouds, but feet on the planks! The Wandering Wordsmith is back on the scene for season 14! Meet your Snow Reporter:
His office is expansive, the heating bills are low
The floors are far from level, but the feng shui has good flow
All around, the views abound, but not through a window
Out and about on our fair mount, sliding on the snow!
Analytical tools aplenty, intel from the brainstrust, the knowledge and wisdom of the Panorama Avalanche Office, reports from the grooming crew, and the processing power possessed by the Countess of Accumulation, all combine to resource and inform your snow report.
In conversation with a weather station; providing explanation of the information; finding inspiration in precipitation; it's an interpretation with imagination! Not languid with his language, he knows his semaphore from his metaphor and his airhead's from his oxymoron's. Leading you to the rough diamonds and well groomed alike, it's all about explain and infotain for a net gain in our terrain!
