It’s official - we’re planning to open May 30! Operations will be a little different this year. We’ll keep you posted on what skiing during the COVID era looks like at the Basin. Stay positive!

While we're not getting into the mountains, we're enjoying using our time to learn more, ready for next season. The Rescue at Cherry Bowl is an incredible story of a rescue against the odds and a stark reminder about why keeping our skills honed matters.

@katy_merrifield Grossly uninformed opinions based on purposely skewed and manipulated evidence. Solid reasoning! 1992 welcomes Alberta with open arms!

Clear & unambiguous evidence from @avalancheca & Mother Nature kept us mostly in bounds yesterday... mostly 😎.

A little slow out of the gate, but the snowpack and season at @grousemountain are ramping up now!

.@VanFireRescue has partnered with @sensorup to prove out whether new technologies can provide a new level of FF safety. We will be able to answer: What chemicals are FF’s being exposed to during incidents?and for how long? and where FF’s are within a building? @FireChiefReid

Hey @WhstlrBlckcmb I know we had a fight last week. Lifts were closed, information was withheld, things were said, we both over reacted. I’m sorry, and I accept today’s conditions as your apology.

@KatFaceTravel @WhistlerBlckcmb @VailResorts Info to help make go-nogo choice is what would have helped. Expecting alpine to open after 45cm overnight is silly, but a sense of what is potentially going to open below Roundhouse would help decide if $180 is worth it. Delay was not AC as per WB staff briefing lineup 0815hrs 🤷♂️

@Ride_YVR @WhistlerBlckcmb @VailResorts FULLY agree that maintenance is an issue and there's been no customer compensation (from what I've heard); and the day prices are ridiculous. But AC was needed above mid-WVG, so that IS why Creekside was delayed.

#WBOps The Creekside gondola is now open. Thank you for your patience.
English

@KatFaceTravel @WhistlerBlckcmb @VailResorts 100% & why the alpine/bowls are still closed. Creekside delay wasn’t avy related & part of what seems like gondola delays every 2nd day this yr. WB staff are awesome, but since Vail took over cust’ srvc has steadily declined. They love your $180/day or $2k after which it’s lol 🖕
English

@Ride_YVR @WhistlerBlckcmb @VailResorts Better soaked kids than dead kids. They delayed opening because avalanche control has to make the mountain safe.

The line for #grousemountain @grousemountain is well over an hour now. If you’re not in it, might be a good time to reconsider your plans. #skiing #ski #crowded

Arrived at 8am, top parking lots full and MASSIVE line (yes, for pass holders too) at #grousemountain @grousemountain. Line exits tram, curls along parking and now down to gravel lot.

So much #love & #respect for this family!
Remember 14 y/o Brooklyn, part of our @VanFireRescue family who had life-saving surgery @BCChildrensHosp? She continues to #inspire!
This week she put out fires & cut up cars at #TakeYourKidToWorkDay with her #FireFighter dad!

Hey @askcanpar my shipment’s tracking has shown “out for delivery- by end of day” for THREE DAYS. What gives??

Two hour “adult pace” ride on #fromme (so good to find riding partners with similar fitness and skills!), home, fresh chamois, back to Fromme with #groms for another 2hrs. Best day ever!! #bikelife #steedcycles #gotitatsteed #mtb #mountainbiking #santacruzbicycles

We often (never) get asked “hey Ride YVR, what do you do when you’re not riding?”
🧐well, we maintain bikes, practice manuals with our manual-machine, drool over steedcycles.com, and read @pinkbike #steedcycles #pinkbike #mountainbike #freeride #bike
