west carven · March 3, 2010

howdy all

it was a high overcast day so good visibility and it helped the snow

stay cool. the frontside was ice sheets all day and the backside was

still holding up well. so make a few runs on the backside then go to

the frontside to see if it softend up, but it stayed firm all day. might

be good tomorrow if the ice sheets get ground up by the groomers.

hope the temps stay cool overnight. rode all day to work on my vert

and get my last licks in. more warm temps in the forcast and rain/snow

for the week. rode my rsfp167 from 9:30 till 3pm...

howdy all

took the day off to ride the spring slush... in was good carving snow

on the backside in the early morning. made some pencil thin carves

on silvertip, but the backside is the backside, mellow blues more like

green runs, still, it held a good carve. at this point you find what

you can. it was high overcast till 12pm then the sun came out and

all hell broke loose, spring slush, if this keeps up it will end soon.

i'm putting my boards away and will ride my rock board with softies

from here on out. it's done and theres one more month left. spring

slush has a surfy feel and is kinda fun in a pathetic kinda way.

rode my rsfp167 from 9:30am till 1pm...

forcast is rain/snow highs 46 lows 25s the next few days.

hi allee when are you coming, i will buy you a beer to drown your

sorrows...

The way things are shaping up here, I might have to bust the mountain bike out this weekend. I hear the trails around Canmore are already clear and riding well. In the first week of March.:( There's been no significant snow here since before I left for Vancouver.

Kinda finding it hard to motivate myself to drive six hours to ride on crap.

Let's see what the next couple of weeks brings. I could always be talked into coming down for closing weekend, pond skimming and some beers in the sun...

Not unless you get out before 10 am and run studs.

The only snow left is ON the trails.

You might try Prospector in Exshaw, otherwise, we're still a few weeks out, but we'll get a big dump before then...

Hiuh. The guys from work did Benchlands last night, and said it was stellar. Snow on the trails still, but hardpacked and grippy enough to ride without studs.

Might haul the beast out anyway ... most of Fish Creek is thawed. Might still be muddy in the trees, but mud washes off...

Big Mountain Photo was on the prowl again in Ptarmigan bowl Friday, March 5th.

For someone who eschews soft boot carving as an oxymoron, these photos show I keep an open mind. F2 Eliminator 164 Wide, Flow Pro FR bindings, +33/+15.

Late afternoon spring conditions. We need some fresh snow. Conditions go straight from ice to corn. Lots of sun though. :biggthump

howdy all

rode the spring slush and had a blast! it was a hot bluebird day as was

yesterday. took it easy in the morning cause its hard ice sheets, but it

did not take long for it to soften up. it was pretty busy today, i think

everyone is getting their last licks in before its over, dont know how long

this will keep up. there was a brewfest in the village with some local

flavors, all to support the snowbus. it was an easy investment as i am

a rider on the bus. there was a couple of good bands and a good turn out.

standing in the sun it felt like 60 degrees, felt great, but i'm sad that

the season is ending so soon. rode my amp5 with softies from 9:30am

till 2:30pm then brewfest till 5:20pm... what a fun day...

Looks like the Whitefish Carvers have been busy!

Johnasmo is still recovering missed vertical from his SES trip.

The leader of the WMR Big Vert Challenge is Fred Frost, who is currently at 3,150,472 feet. Being retired and skiing nearly everyday must be nice!

howdy all

thought it was going to be concrete ice sheets, but it was pretty good.

made a few runs on chair 2 then headed to the backside which is holding

up well. i rode my fp157 thinking i was just going to putt around and wait

for the slush. the sun was out for a little while then the clouds came over

and kept things cool, looks like it was snowing here and there and we had

a very very light sprinkle of tiny snow over the big. the snow on the

backside was very carvable and had a blast on the fp157 doing the

cross-under on the easy pitch, had a great workout. rode my fp157 from

10am till 3pm...

west carven · March 10, 2010

howdy all

woke up to an inch of white stuff here in town. the big had almost three

inches of new. brought the wrong board but still had some fun. it was

snowing teeny tiny snow/ice all day. the frontside got groomed first and

was icey groom under the new snow and got bumped up pretty quick.

the backside had some of the fresh groomed down with a little new snow

on top so did not get bumped up to much. i will take the day off tomorrow

should be some soft groomers. hope it doesnt snow too much over night.

forcast is snow/showers till thursday night then 50 plus on friday and more

warm weather. the days are numbered and have to get what you can.

rode my rsfp167 from 9:30 till 1pm...

big canuck · March 10, 2010

Its weird to see you on a non alpine board guy!!!

Keep it up!

its weird though.... :biggthump

west carven · March 11, 2010

howdy all

took the day off and it was worth it! nice groomers with a little fresh

on top. the new snow was light and dry in the morning, but got wet

by 11am. started on chair 2 and stayed there cause it was so good.

met up with notarealname and rick and had a great day riding with them.

the sun was trying to peak thru, but it was mostly cloudy, visibility was

good. forcast is 50 degrees on friday but the radar looks like some cool

stuff is moving in. theres still 3 more weeks, lets hope for more snow.

Plans are afoot for me to head down for pond skimming and beer on closing weekend (April 3/4). I'm going to try and bring Two Ravens with me, to up the female carver quotient.:)

Hope some of you make it to the end of the season, looking forward to turns and bevvies with y'all.

notarealname · March 12, 2010

Since Wes was not on the mountain today, I thought I would fill in. Spent the day on Chair 2 from 9:30 till about 2:00pm. From early on the snow was really nice and there was no problem carving deep trenches from top to bottom. Add to that the minimal numbers or skiers or other traffic and it was a most stellar day. It warmed up and the sun came out around 11 but that only made it better. Rick joined me for a slew of runs and we were both carving it up in the sun. Had to resort to some race wax as we were getting seriously slowed down by the warm slush, but that was good for me as I was finally able to get some traction on my heelside turns which was a huge relief. Conditions kept holding up and I only stopped cause my muscles were totally worn out. Rick took off to the top, but didn't hear from him how the conditions were. Rode my new to me Nidecker Tornado 173 all day. Very happy with it. One of the lifties is going to start carving next week, hope the snow holds up for him. Going up again early tomorrow, as I think it is going to be another awesome day.

Wow Allee.... thought I might try to make it too.... maybe we could even out number the boys!!! hahahahah.... but I can't .... :( Got a commitment with the daughter on Saturday and work on Sunday.... bummer

Geez.... I haven't been on my board even since I was up there since the end of January. WHY DOES LIFE HAVE TO BE SO DARN COMPLICATED SOMETIMES????

Allee · March 13, 2010

Well that bites. We would have loved to have seen you! We'll have a beer in your honour instead.

howdy all

huge puffy clouds that passed thru all day, one minute sunshine next

minute light sprinkle of snow. cloud cover was higher than the big so

visibility was good all day. snow condition on most of the mountain

was polished ice, great for sliding around and pretty hard to dig in a

solid carve. it did not get too warm today and that is a good thing,

kept the snow firm. about 2pm the lower part near the village got a

little slushy. so sliding around most of the day was not hard on the legs

so i stayed all day. rode my fp157 from 9:30am till 4pm...

Ohob · March 16, 2010

I scored 3 passes for the Big, so it looks like I get to join you guys up there tomorrow, the 16'th! I'll probably be starting the day over on chair 2.

You can't miss me... Bright yellow and black North Face Jacket, black hat, and black pants riding the old Nitro Asym or my Palmer Crown (depending on how soft it gets).

howdy all

started sunny than high overcast than sunny. icey in the morning

than slush in the afternoon. riding chair 2, toni matt, the backside,

just go and find where the snow is carveable. got pretty warm by

the afternoon. so from the summit i go up to chair 5 and get about

3 or 4 turns of untracked groom on the front. i did four runs from

there and on my last run of the day i clipped a skier. as i was turning

toeside this skier was traversing across the top and he was coming

straight towards me so i dive toeside into the hill and ran over the

right side of his boots, was not going fast, but he fell over and popped

out of both his ski's. he and i was not hurt, but still a little shaken.

he took off and skied away and he looked fine so everything ok.

rode my fp157 from 10:30 till 4pm...

west carven · March 17, 2010

howdy all

didnt expect to much today, just figure i putt around. headed for the

backside in the morning and it was fun, still carveable conditions.

waiting for the frontside to warm up, it was sunny in the morning then

slowly high overcast builds then clouds in the late afternoon. it was

very warm today, got up to 50 drgrees in the village. there were some

spots in the runs that were a few inches till dirt, i dont think it will make

it till the end of the season. had a great day and pushed it here and

there when the snow softened up just right. rode my fp157 from 9:30

till 3pm...

west carven · March 21, 2010

howdy all

sunny all day, but alittle cooler, things got warmed up about 1pm. again,

hit the backside in the morning then hit the frontside in the afternoon.

having fun on my fp157, great board for variable conditions, carve alittle,

slide alittle, small turn, big turn, whatever! had a blast today! didnt think

i could have so much fun with the crappy conditions. made some nice

turns and felt really good. stayed off chair 2 just so i could watch the

telemarkers race under chair 1, it was fun to see um wreck on the kicker.

rode my fp157 from 9:30am till 3pm...

howdy all

deep powder! 3 plus on top and an inch on the bottom. first run on

toni matt was so quiet, none of that scraping noise, so smooth!

hardly anybody on the hill today, so stayed good longer, but got

bumped up and got wet later in the afternoon, another fun day!

rode my fp157 from 9:30am till 1pm...
