Neil Gendzwill Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Not sure I could make it this year, I'm out of town the last 2 weeks of January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted December 12, 2019 Report Share Posted December 12, 2019 Pretty sure Rice has plans to go to MCC again this year, so I"m thinking he might not organize anything at Nakiska this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I promise next year I'll get it going again. Come to MCC at Turner in February! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted January 10, 2020 Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 Too busy being a grandpa again I think! Have fun at Turner. I’m going to be at Big White last week of January with Donnagail and a bunch of old friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll be interested to hear what the resort is like. I’m headed there for the first time in early March for a BX race, and am getting excited about being there for a week! It’ll be my first taste of Canadian snow too! Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted January 10, 2020 Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 Big White is a great hill! It is the 2nd largest resort in BC, after Whistler/Blackcomb. It is not as pretty/rugged as other Canadian resorts, for the real Canadian experience I highly recommend you visit Banff sometime. There is a wide variety of terrain, from easy cruising up to a few hairy double blacks. You should give "The Cliff" a shot if conditions are good. There's good glades if trees are your thing. They get a lot of snow, and because of that visibility is often not great. The nickname is "Big Whiteout". Bring some good low-light goggles. It's a great family hill due to all the on-mountain accommodation. You can rent a nice ski-in/ski-out condo for reasonable money, and they have an excellent ski school/daycare combo. Most people stock up on groceries and booze in Kelowna, but if you run short there's shops in the village. They have a number of good restaurants and bars. You should check out Snowshoe Sam's, a great ski bar that's been around forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
