Spring in Whistler

We just got back from 3 days R&R up at Whistler Blackcomb. With the late season snowfall in the last couple of weeks we thought we'd seize the opportunity to get in some late season boarding.  The weather forecast did not look great, but the sun god smiled down on us and we were treated to some awesome views.

Here's me taking a break up on Whistler's Harmony Ridge run where I could just hang out all day if it weren't so chilly.

The weirdest thing was there was NOBODY there!  Not only did we have stunning weather and good snow, but wide open runs with hardly any traffic.  Absolute bliss. 

Here's Susannah hanging out (we did a lot of that).

The Whiskey Jack's (Grey Jay's) were quite cheeky and took food right out of my hand.  So cute.

Although it was a really short break, once more we had a fabulous time on the mountain.  It really is one of my favourite places to go.  See you next year Whistler!

Loving the Mountains!

Those who know me well know that I hate winter. I don't handle cold very well - I'm a beach bum at heart really......

BUT, and this is a HUGE but, I LOVE snowboarding. More specifically, I LOVE Whistler!

Yesterday was a fantastic day on the mountain. With some fresh snow over the last few days and beautiful springlike weather, the views were stunning. Here's a glimpse of our day....

Me, on top of the world :)


The last run of the day. Where was everyone else?


AWESOME!
