Whistler is having amazing weather this Spring. Once again we had a light dusting of new snow overnight, and it is still ‘winter’ snow - light and fluffy. The runs are in great shape, all over the mountain. The only ‘average’ place would be the lower mountain, which is starting to experience the Spring ‘thaw - freeze’ cycle, which can result in some ugly, bumpy, frozen chunks of snow. Still, keep to mid-mountain and above, and the snow is as good as it gets. The groomers are in great shape, and off-piste is generally fantastic. A few places have developed bigger moguls than the average person likes (including me) but overall, its fun, fun, FUN!

The snow base is down to 263cm, still a respectable base, and the coverage is great. In fact, I found a spot on the traverse to the lower Poop Chutes, which has been a rock band most of season, has finally been covered over. It was pointed out to me today, that our total snowfall for the season is currently 971cm, which is actually lower than our seasonal average of 1022cm. In spite of that, I still think this is the best season I have seen, as the quality of the snow has been un-believable, and hopefully it means we still have another dump or two to come
