May 9,2009 Blackcomb

For those of you who still want to get 20,000+ vertical feet of skiing per day, I would recommend a trip up to Blackcomb this weekend. I have been there twice recently and enjoyed great conditions that I didn't have to share with very many people. This link will take you to trip reports with lots of photos to prove my point. telemarktalk.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=56959 Nick BC, Hamish, Chris and myself found very skiable snow on  Blackcomb Glacier (photos 1 and 2), in the Gem Bowls (photo 3), Horstman Glacier and variety of chutes last Saturday. The 18th is the last day at Blackcomb before the skiing shifts back to Whistler. W/B is still offering an end of the year deal for Washington residents buying an Edge Card for next year.
