Finally, some progress

Posted 11-21-2012 at 11:21 AM by Donutz (This Side Up)

Despite the optimism of my previous post, it has NOT been snowing. Every day the snow-forecast website shows snow starting tomorrow. And every tomorrow, nothing happens. But finally, the Seymour website is showing 18cm of new and still snowing. And the snow-forecast website shows this continuing into the indefinite future with only a small bump up in 2 days.

But this is the 21st of November, and last year they OPENED on the 25th. Granted this doesn't necessarily say anything about...

Some stuff

Posted 11-16-2012 at 12:32 PM by Donutz (This Side Up)

Just some observations and comments, while hopping from foot to foot waiting for the season and the snow.

1. Snow
The snow-forecast predictions are looking good. The predicted snow dump moved from Wednesday to Friday, but it's predicting snow right off the end of the 6-day forecast. There's a period of rain or two, but that keeps fading in and out. This is really going down to the wire though.

2. Last season
So I've been bitching and moaning about the...

Snow maybe?

The situation seems to be improving. It looks like after Wednesday it's going to dump continuously for the next several days. Plus the freezing level is coming down to 1000 or below. If this pans out, this weekend could be the time that the wife and I hike up for some early runs. Sweet!

Openings announced

Posted 11-12-2012 at 11:25 PM by Donutz (This Side Up)

Cypress has announced opening day is Wednesday the 14th. Of course Grouse immediately announced Tuesday the 13th. Seymour as usual is silent.

The snow predictions are looking better over the next week, but it'd better produce some snow damned quick or there's gonna be trouble.

Just some updates

Posted 11-10-2012 at 11:52 AM by Donutz (This Side Up)

First, still nothing in the snow category. The freezing level has been hovering between 1000 & 1500 for the last several days and continues that way for the next week or so. There's occasional snow predicted - a cm here and a cm there - but nothing like the dumps we need. As Beetlejuice says, I'm feeling a little anxious here.

On a slightly more optimistic subject, Seymour has been awarded 3rd best parks in Western Canada. Sounds like faint praise, but when you consider that 1st...
