BC Hut Trip Report – Day 6 – Bubble Bath Powder Skiing in the Sunshine Off The Backside Report from January 10, 2023 Yesterday was a special day. 3,600-vertical-feet 7-miles 6.5-hours RHC talked us into going up and over the ridgeline and dropping into the backside zone. There’s some great tree skiing out there and it’s a completely different type of zone compared to what we have here around the hut. I was game. The only issue was […] Conditions Report Miles Clark | January 11, 2024 0 Comments
BC Hut Trip Report – Day 5 – One Dry Billowy Powder Run After 6″ of New Snow Report from January 9, 2023 Yesterday I woke up in a foggy snowstorm feeling pretty darned tired.

BC Hut Trip Report – Day 3 – Pillow Powder Day With a Nasty Darkside Sun-Kiss Report from January 7, 2023 Today was a pillow powder day. We got out early and headed straight for the pillows.

Kicking Horse, BC Report: 4,000-Vertical-Feet of “Hell Yeah” & The Endemic “Pee Here” Sign Report from January 4, 2023 Yesterday I got up and out at Kicking Horse, BC with Lee. I’d forgotten how much I love this place… I spent 2 months here living in Mary’s Motel in Golden, BC back in 2018 and it was pure bliss.
