Man...we are dry as a nun's poon in CO right now.
Usually Parks and Pipes aren't ready till late December. Maybe earlier if the snow has been good and they have the manpower...

Looks like bluebird this morning, The clouds were settled mid mountain for that cool effect coming up the lift.

Here's a vid from the Blackcomb and whistler parks. I tend to keep the board for powder and use twin tips in the park nowadays. The parks are brilliant:

buddy.. don't travel all the way up here to ride the pipe... big terrain is why you come to BC, you should be preying for fresh powpow.

nah thats not why im goin horton. mainly for a xmas holiday with friends, so ill be riding terrain with them all day for most of the week. They wont be hitting any parks or pipes so i just want one day to myself where i will hike the pipe alone. Never had a whole day of halfpipe and im keen to get as good as possible on it.
