And:South Coast Region WEATHER: Well, if you have any doubt that the weather is mixed up right now, let’s start with the obvious. It snowed hard in Vancouver. The reason for this begins with a very cold airmass that roared through BC from the north, bringing temperatures down to a chilly -20 in the alpine. A series of weak Pacific disturbances have taken a run at the coast, but have been force to ride up and over the cold, dense air. This has led to intense snowfall in some areas, with the Coquihalla getting an incredible 156 cm since Friday. The weather forecast calls for the cold air to finally retreat, leaving a brief clear period Monday morning then opening the door for a very powerful low heading our way from Hawaii. Expect rapidly rising temperatures, a wind switch to strong out of the SW and heavy snow turning to rain even in the alpine beginning late Monday. SNOWPACK: Things are quite variable right now. The Whistler area has seen less snow than inland areas but still has a wind slab now buried under a further 30cm of low density fluff. The interface under the wind slab is still weak, with weak surface hoar crystals found here in many areas, accompanied by a poorly bonded crust down 60cm on some southerly aspects. AVALANCHES: By Sunday, only small powder and soft slab releases were being seen, failing on specific terrain features. As the rapid warming occurs, expect a slab to quickly form at the surface and a widespread avalanche cycle to develop early in the week. FORECAST OF AVALANCHE DANGER UP TO MONDAY EVENING (March 10th) ALPINE – Considerable, increasing to High with warming TREELINE - High BELOW TREELINE - Considerable TRAVEL ADVISORY: The main problem for Monday will be wind transported snow as the system moves inland. Expect a further and now rapid rise in danger as temperatures begin to rise Monday afternoon.

Must disagee Dru. The Europeans invaded by everyone, respected by noone are the French. But I must digress, we've already had a few threads covering that topic. if the french were the poles vichy govt would have lasted till 1992.

even though the poles are the scots of europe, invaded and conquered by everyone, respected by no one i think it would be pushing it to call glassgowkiss aka polish bob, a scot.

you cant dehydrate alcohol, as there is no water in the alcohol part..altho if i remember correctly high school chem, alcohol+acid=ester+water so maybe there is some chem lab way of turning esters and water back into alcohol, you would then have to get the acid out somehow. the best you could do would be take 100% ethanol and mix it with powdered flavours and water but why bother trying to recreate the taste of beer when you can just put the ethanol shots in your gatorade or cytomax or hot cocoa or whatever.

the Alpine_Tom vs. AlpenTom brawl is scheduled for afters if you make it through the smokescreen with AlpineK. maybe we can get AlpineDave and any other posers who had to put Alpine or Mountain in their name so we know they are climbers to step up and have a steel cage match for exclusive rights to the title

Spray contamination detected. Sterilization procedures commence immediately. If you have sprayed on this thread prepare for immediate sterilization. Our decontam procedure has only a 50% mortality rate when tested on so your chances of biting it are no worse than bc skiing right now or going on a date with Polish Bob.

yes i believe many of Freds accomplishments have been laid back, or back-to-back he hasn't yet written a book on that though i suspect it would be a bit like "Women" by Bukowski.

Do food threads go in Body Results? This stuff looks like the ultimate alpine food. Milk, sugar, dried fruit, rice, salt. Except it is supposed to take 3 hours to bake and we are currently on hour 4.... There's something to be said for buying the tub of KozyShack.
