Powder Day at Big White
I don’t even have words for yesterday. What a mind blowing day! On my second lap I bumped into Sean who was on his last lap. But he sure as hell set the tempo for the rest of my runs! The powder was unreal, but so were the lineups. After my 4th Black Forest lap I didn’t feel like lining up yet again for 30min so I jumped in my truck and drove over to Gem Lake. When I pulled into the parking lot, there were maybe 10 cars in total. I suited up and walked up to the lift with a line up not even coming out of the barriers. The lift had been shut down all morning and so the entire side had fresh untouched pow from the night before. At first I tried to take my regular route but I kept getting stuck because it wasn’t steep enough, the pow was no joke. It’s like white cold quicksand. Quite infuriating at times. But man, once I found the steep sections . The sun also joined me for a big part of the day. Definitely my best day at the mountain to date!!
