Day 67 - Over 20 cm of heavy POW today ... down Ashleigh McIver (2x), Crazy Raven (3x), Benny's/Shoreline (1x), Secret Cat Track (1x) and Super Secret Olympic Run (3x).

All the Cypress regulars were present. Tons of trash talk with Brian C and LeopardSkin.

Day 69 - Magically "69". Finally a dry session. Fun in the sun with Doug and LeopardSkin. Most runs were chunky and/or firm ... except Crazy Raven which was soften by the sun and grippy for plenty of sweet turns.

Day 70 - A great day of sight seeing with Mike and LeopardSkin. Soft grippy snow everywhere for some fantastic turns. Repeated runs down Crazy Raven and the bumps of Ashleigh McIver.

Day 71 - Took a chance on a wet day (only drizzle) and it paid off :D :D :D

Run #1 - Second tracks on Humpty Dumpty with 20 cm of heavy fresh and fanastic hits on the side ... then merged onto Horizon where I came to grinding halts in some super sticky patches and took a few tumbles

Runs # 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 - Scored third chair on Sky and enjoyed awesome untracked 25-30 cm of pow in the trees.

Run #7 - Ended the day riding down the Super Secret Olympic Run ... cushy but only 10-15 cm of disappointment

Day 72 - Dry , uncrowded, hero corduroy with excellent visibility everywhere from Sky, Humpty Dumpty, Fork, Lower Jasey Jay, Panorama, Wind Jammer and Crazy Raven.

Marked my territory by laying down euro-carve trenches on every run.

Hey just wondering what’s the least expensive lift ticket on a hill within say 3hrs of driving from the lower mainland? Don’t care about the quality of snow or terrain, just the price of the day pass…cheap cheaper cheapest.

Need a groomed run, no hiking/skinning for turns on this day. All assisted by the grid/fossil fuels please.
