It's DUMPING in Whistler!
So I'm at work in Creekside and have to make sure the front steps are kept clear. At 4PM, I didn't need to clear anything, and could see pavement.

Now at 8:20, I just finished a second round of shovelling, and there must be at least a foot of fresh in the places I wasn't shovelling.

I can't imagine what it's like on the hill!

Have fun tomorrow, I bet the highway will be a mess though!

I'm running a temperature of 51cm, and the cure is fresh pow.

Hopefully I start feeling "better" on the drive to Whistler this morning.

51cm/20inches. Ridiculous!

Apparently the gondy line went all the way to just before Citta.

I expect those in the line to post pictures of the snow you got, or at least stories. Days like this don't come along very often!

uuuhhhhh...snow. :barf: Although when I think of it - a lot of snow would be nice if I had the chance to have it in my backyard. But no. Just slush. But I can ride all year round.

This makes me feel a little better about not getting out.
