Day 42 | Snuffalofaguess

The snow has been falling for a few days now and today was the first good pow day we've had in a long time.  I was looking forward to shredding some gnar with my WESP kids.  By 9am, only four out of the seven showed up so we hit the Blackcomb gondi and headed up to the top of Excelerator Chair.  Once we were there, it was blue runs to Solar Coaster.

The kids had a bit of a tough time on the powdery blue runs but they made it safely to Solar where we were able to ride down Easy Out.  There was a lot of snow on the ground and it was super soft.  It was fun.  I was hitting fresh tracks on the sides of the runs.  We also cut in and out of some trees.  Winds were whipping up top so I decided we wouldn't take another chair ride.

I was smart enough to get us to lunch early in order to ride Whistler for the afternoon.  I wanted to hit Marmot Trees since trees weren't restricted today.  The powder in Marmot Trees was deep.  In fact, the usual lines weren't cut out and the lines that were cut out dumped us into the trees below the tower.  No matter, the kids still had fun (even though they had a tougher time with it).

We were a bit chilly so we ran down to the CLC and grabbed a hot chocolate.  After the break, we rode down the green to the village riding all the side hits.  We had enough time to take one last run from the top of the Excalibur gondola before signing out with Mom and Dad.  The day was super fun and the conditions were amazing.  And I didn't even get to ride the "good stuff" ......
