I am heading to the Northwest to ski next week and finding the prospects of powder looking grim. Baker closed mid January-WTF? Willing to travel to find good turns. Can anyone offer suggestions? Is there any good backcountry skiing to be had?

Define Good????
The forecast looks better for next week ( maybe) .
I would head north of the border. Nelson area.
When you coming specifically?

Coming the 20th and we have 2 weeks. Nelson was on my radar...looks like they are getting some of this warm wet weather as well!
Thanks for the reply...I'll keep doing the snow dance!

Snow levels predicted to be at the surface in the passes and east slopes by Sunday. Freezing rain? Heavy powder? We'll see...

Yup. Kootenays is where I'd be headed.
