Blog post February 2009

It’s another perfect day. A good re-freeze, cool air, warm sun, and fabulous skiing off-piste and on.

Well it’s my first blog of the season, so hello from Meribel.  It was an awesome start to the season, the week I arrived out here for training it dumped solid for a week and a half, making it one of the best starts to the season for a decade.  And hey it pretty much hasn’t snowed since, until now wayhey.

It’s taken a while this season for High alpine conditions to be skiable but thankfully things have taken a major turn for the better.The snowpack has stabilized & together with a few good dumps of snow & the Peak ,Harmony & Symphony chairs have been providing some excellent skiing on Whistler.All the bowls are now open offering more challenging terrain & the pistes have been mint.Dave Murray,Tokum & The Saddle being particularly good when groomed.
