Jim Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 I'll say. Timing is everything. It's whiteout or 40 degrees. Still haven't been to Bachelor when the summit chair is open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhamaker Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Baker was skiable Sun a.m. 3/9. Just point the skis down hill in the fresh snow and hold, and hold, and hold. Grab other's tracks in the flats and off you go to the next steep! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b-rock Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Slight drizzle... So now two out of the three times I've been to Bachy it's been in the rain. The glades on the NW side rock though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternalX Posted March 11, 2003 Author Share Posted March 11, 2003 Whistler is suppose to get dumped on all weekend. Thinking about bagging sun peaks and going there instead. As icing, they are offering WA residents 52 CDN lift tickets all march long. woohoo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silaswild Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 eternalx: How does one get ticket for that price? Show WA driver license at the counter? Or buy at 7-11, or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allison Posted March 12, 2003 Share Posted March 12, 2003 and what is the name of that cheap kind of bunkhouse hostel place north of the Village? Thinking of running up there next week for a few turns if I can find lodging without compromising myself. Alternately, anyone have a condo or anything they would like to lend me for a night or two? Be happy to leave you a couple of drawings or something nice as a payment. This has worked well lately...I have a laptop and some new dental work I got this way.

eternalX Posted March 12, 2003 Author Share Posted March 12, 2003 I got an email...then i signed up on the web site, but can't find it now. they assign you a code and then you need your WA driver's license (which I still need to get). Here's the number from the bottom of the confirmation email.. let me know what they tell you: If you have any questions regarding this offer, please contact the Whistler Blackcomb Reservation Centre at 1-800-766-0449.
