Biggest Snow Fall on Record

The Whistler-Blackcomb website has just announced that January is offically the snowiest month on record. Almost 5 metres of snow. Crazy. Can't wait to get there, hope it doesn't all melt while I'm lazing around in Europe...

It's going to be a real challenge for me to ski in such deep powder as in the past I tackled the "pow" with a snow board. This time, however, the snow board has been banned by my insurance company (too many broken wrists claimed one would suppose).

I'm also looking forward to catching up with a couple of old work colleagues Erin and Geordan (from the Whistler days) and Mike (from uni and Vision in Adelaide). Erin's been kind enough to let me sleep on his couch for my time there, and with Geordan back in town there will be a few fun nights ahead. I'm hoping Erin recovers quickly from his most recent skiing accident though...

2.5 working days to go...
