Another epic deep powder day. You gotta see this - a close call with some big trees that jumped out of nowhere!

It's snow/raining in Elkford right now. It didn't appear to rain at all up the claims. In town the snow was unbelievably heavy/wet. Up the claims it was light/fluffy and DEEP. I couldn't tell you how Fernie made out, sorry. I would highly recommend finding some meadow/tree riding and avoiding the slopes where at all possible. We had a blast yesterday.
