Another day another dollar...

Its Wednesay here in ol ye Whitsler town and im getting super amped for the weekend.

Kickin off Thursday we have blackcomb opening so Nic and i will be charging up early for some of the remaining untracked pow!.. The ski patrol and various departments involved in getting the mountain ready for opening have already had their pick this week of all the easy access stuff so we will have to hunt around but it should be rockin!

Friday we have Mark (aka Max) showing up from New Zealand for almost 2 months of Whistler action.

Saturday were gonna do the switch with Mark and show him around.. Start off close to home and head up the Creekside gondola on Whistler rip around a bit and then head over to Blackcomb for a mission. Then head back in the arvo to Whistler.. Saturday night is Whole Lotta Led at Dustys.. a great combo of a killer ski bar and legendary Led Zep cover band..

Stoked!

The mission ahead will be difficult but were going to shuffle to New Zealand and focus 100% on our web software Litmos.com...

We will miss all the friends and community in Whistler, not to mention the outdoors, snow, bikes etc.. but all going well we will be back before toooooo long..

66cm Overnight and its still going

Big storms ahoy!.. we got 66cms overnight mid mountain and its crusty as hell weather down here in the valley..

No snow in the valley yet but it was pretty slushy this morning.. its been raining hard all day which means snow up top! and when the freezing level drops in the valley tonight we should take a good hit down here too!

Bring on the snow!

Rainy Sundays

Another rainy day here in Whistler.. a little snow overnight but it still hasnt quite made it down to the valley in a big way yet..

So with a small amount of hangover still lingering after an 'Ok' night last night at the Gnarcore flick im about to get stuck into some bug fixing.. sounds pretty excited.. well it is! i can tell ya that for sure.. haha..

Why was the night only 'Ok'... well we had to queue for an hour to get into an event that we had tickets for.. yawn.. they hit capacity in the bar due to doing door sales on an already sold out event.. duh!..

anyway.. happy sunday!

The Power Normal

The new Gnarcore snowboard film "The Power Normal" premieres tonight at Dusty's Saloon in Whistler Creekside.

Its a formal affair so we can expect a bunch of snowboarder punks dressed up in suits, consuming many beverages and going nuts in true whistler style..

Movie kicks off at 10pm... drinks before that at Dusty's (havent been there since last winter and its our local!!).... rockin venue! and we're stoked to see our buddy Dave's part up on the big screen.

Girls on Tour

Last weekend Christina, Jenna and I hit up the sleepy fishing town of Ucluelet on Vancouver island for a few nights of R&R...and lots of wine... just what the doctor ordered :o) We didn't do much else other than have hot tubs, cook, eat, do a coastal walk & visit an old growth forest. Thats a seal swimming in the harbour in the first photo!! Taken from our balcony where the hot tub was. They were always cruising by just checking out the catch of the day..
