So my friends are looking to go to Whistler Bc in mid march. Is that a good time to go? Looks like its super warm out then. Powder? How is it? Never been there

I think Whistler got over 16 feet of snow last March.

2 years ago in mid march the top third of the mountain couldn't be opened for five days, too much snow to blast out avalanche risks.

Day 6 was mind blowing. I'm going back in 2 weeks.

British Columbia is known for March - Crazy snowfall totals.

March is by far the best month for snow in all of the west actually.

Agreed, March tends to be good out here.

I'll be there 3/1 - 3/3. Here's the forecast
