Banff is pretty good... i suggest hitting up Sunshine over the other resorts there.

I wish I had the cash :P it's all about budget, trying to save most of my quid to hit NY in the summer.

hey chris...
why the move? job related? or.. just tired of whistler..
hang on to your house and rent it out..
in 2010..
(which is kind of a long way away)one of my best friends aunts is the manager of all the shops in whislter village.
she is renting her chalet out for the olympics making a killling...

How does your Aunt manage all the shops? I don't think that's acurate.

problem is I don't own.
I want to own a house but a cheap ass falling apart bran from the 60's sells for like 800k out here.
Like I said before... WHistler looks great on the outside but after 3 years of living here i'm getting tired of it... I want to be able to hit up an art show on moments notice, or hit up the museum.

like.. she oversees all the shops in whislter village...
she manages what shops are going where.. blah blah.. she works for intrawest..
(and shes my buddies aunt)

awww shit... yea i hear that...
i never lived there. i was there for a week this summer, and 2 weeks last summer... loved it.. but i can see how it lacks culture..
or.. the culture is all around the activites on the mountain..
to each his own..
i prefer when bears dont walk into my skateparks...lol happend last summer. we took a pic with a 35mm and the bear freaked and chased us cause we were way too close...

yeah I lived there for a season, thought I was going to die, walking up to staff, blitz out of my tree after work, and ran into a bear, hudge ass was about 20 min...I thought it was my end :)
Yeah, I was onylthere for 8 months, and the whole yo brow attitude sucks...I generally hate most of the people there..

im thinking of moving out there tho... im not liking toronto too much anymore.
it could also be that i am addicted to mountain biking in the summer out there...
ive got some friends at Spicy Sports that give me mad deals with bike rentals... so i rode everyday for the week... my arms were DEAADDD.. lol

fuck i loved it!
fell only 5 times... once i flipped off the front of my bike after breaking too fast with front breaks...(i was going waaayy to fast..)
luckly i had armour on...
i find it so challanging and fun...but man its hard on your body and bike...

ooh, i was worried that i may have some serious Mtn Bike Park withdrawls as i usually log like 20-30 days a summer up there but Cypress is gonna open a park up in 2005.... so that makes the move that much easier.

And then there's the north shore...I mean that's all I ever hear about on ride guid...haha Besides with all that money you save live'n van you can drive up to whistler to ride the park all sumemr long
