The First REAL Storm of the Ski Season

After top to bottom rain and countless freeze thaw cycles, the storm the entire West Coast has been waiting for is finally here. An atmospheric river combined with dropping temperatures is dousing Whistler Blackcomb with snow, and this is just the beginning. It’s cold, angry and moving fast. Every day is about to get better. Stay tuned as I rip every ounce of snow this storm delivers.

It’s mid-December but warm temps and an atmospheric river continue to hammer the PNW. Is Whistler Blackcomb getting storm snow… or getting super soaked. You don’t know if you don’t go. It’s time to investigate what’s going down on the Wet Coast.
