Fantastic Saturday in Whistler two weeks ago. Mountains had been dumped by an incredible 104 cm of powder the previous day which made for the deepest powder we have ever experienced in Whistler.

Knowing that it will be busy, we arrived in Creekside already at 7am. Even this early there were few people before us and by 8am the line-up had grown to be 300-400 people. Better arrive early on powder days!



Conditions up on the mountain were amazing with powder anywhere. It was hard to remember that the season started off pretty bad in November.







Some people waited for an hour for Harmony Express to open after avalanche control wrapped up after 11am.



The entire Harmony Bowl was ungroomed and snow was really a meter deep. It was powder heaven and actually really hard to ski.









It was a busy day in Whistler but with such condition certainly worth it. They have had a great season so far and this might have been one of the best day ever.
