Excellent road snowplow conditions. Rock star parking.

Scored a quick powder session at Cypress. Fifth chair and first tracks at 8:30am with Clay, Rob and friends. After an hour it started to get carved up and lumpy so I left.

Excellent snowplowed roads were nice and grippy driving up and down with my all-season tires.

Now got to catch my daughter's Xmas concert.

Tony - my snowboard sometimes felt sticky on the flats so I avoided the Panaroma today. Does this mean I need to wax my board?

If no one else had problems, then probably yes.

Thanks Laura. My favourite run today was the Maeller Ricker. Jasey Jay had only a few icy spots. Only complaint was limited visibility with blowing snow (natural + snow guns) - otherwise a sweet sesh.

Looks like I should get the $10 wax job at Cypress.
