Thanks for the great vids. Keep them coming. I'm 67 and brings back memories from when I lived in Whistler in the 1980's. (learned to ski there skiing with experts.) Living vicariously through you. DBird
@@rocky6162 I've actually just moved to Ottawa so I'm closer now to some better ski areas. One hour away from Calabogie Peaks resort (800 vertical) and two hours from Mt. Tremblant. Also only five hours to Killington resort where my buddy from Philadelphia has a chalet. ( 3000 vertical, 21 lifts, 74 miles of trails and 1526 acres of skiing over 5 peaks plus Pico resort. #20 on the vertical list for N. America.) At some point I'm coming back.
2 mins ago, I literally couldn't be earlier. YOOT I don't know if it would be too much work, but if you could add an approximate location of where you're at (like the name of the run you're doing) it'd make the videos even better
Hey Josiah thanks for tuning in! I used to add in the run names on some of my videos but found it got repetitive since I ski the same mountain all the time, Most of the spots I ski are all detailed in my guide videos from last year. Exploration on the mountain and in the trees is all part of the fun of getting to know WB!
Sweeet! I'm definitely doing Sun Bowl to Symphony Express this Monday. I noticed a couple of flat sections in the middle. Is it too flat? I'm a snowboarder haha
The interior hills snow is king - who doesn't love Champagne powder! Revi is on my hit list. I've skied all the other mountains you've mentioned quite a bit. Although the snow is drier, the terrain at Whis is way gnarlier than Sun Peaks, Apex, Silver Star & Biggie. No such thing as Whistler Powder.... thats up for debate LOL. Happy turns.
It's like driving in rush hour, you have to avoid certain runs and chairs at certain times, and always stay off the weenie runs (Emerald chair at Whistler, and Jersey Cream at Blackcomb) and you'll see much shorter lines.
@Gone viral, Robert gave a killer description, the lines in the favourite zones can be deadly on powder days, but if you know the mountain a little bit you can work around them. There's often a fair bit of standing around which makes interior mountains way more attractive.
Thank you for your upload and continuity. Spicy Girls is hot sauce local company that you should connect with to see how they got started, production facilities, advice. I will buy the first bottle please let me know.
@@riseandalpine awesome! I’ve skied a lot last season at cypress and a bit at whistler. I am a blue run exclusive. How should I transition to be a black run guy
Powder.. that's a laugh. More like elephant snot. If you want powder try interior mountains. I had a Whistler pass for years and I never sked powder until I went to Sun peaks. Or apex. Or silver star. Or big white. Or the granddaddy of them all Revelstoke. Or any kootenai ski hill. Don't believe me try it. It once snowed 13 in, minus 18° at whistler, by lunch time the snow was already set up. No such thing as Whistler powder.
No such thing as Whistler Powder.... that's up for debate. I've skied it all my dude. The interior snow is most definitely King. Other than Revi, the other mountains you mentioned don't have the gnarly terrain Whistler does.
@@riseandalpine Yes you are right about that for sure. I guess never really took that into account. I've got myself into trouble more than once there. Fun as shit though.

I'm 65, skied Whistler the second year it was open, and still ski there. Already have 4 days there this season.
This is why we ride!
where you at now dbird? come on back!

Except for stamina I'm skiing the best I ever have.
Love your vids and your energy - puts a smile on my face every time - thanks!
My pleasure dude - that's why I do it!
Bro your energy and vibe made me instantly sub the other week, Loving the feel of the vids. That intro was pure bliss :D
Yoo thanks for subbing Trav. Great to have another mountain lover tuning in.
Where are you watching from?
@@riseandalpine Australia :D just went to NZ for first time couple of months ago was amazing but cannot wait to get to Canada T.T
Love to see the 4k upload 👀it looks so much more crisp!
Thanks! I'm super happy you noticed. Longer upload times and way more storage, but I'll keep the 4k coming if everyones enjoying it :)

That's good idea !
thats what lucas catania does, its cool
great idea but then secret's get out and people get mad

Love your line choice. Every time I watch your video, and think that's where I would go, you go there first.😉
Entertaining as always lol
Epic ! I need to find that spot haven't gone up to Whistler yet this season!
We still need some more snow so not a bad idea to hold off. Good luck on your powder hunting!
Sweeet! I'm definitely doing Sun Bowl to Symphony Express this Monday. I noticed a couple of flat sections in the middle. Is it too flat? I'm a snowboarder haha
Unreal! There should be enough of a pitch to be good on a board, unless the spring snow is sticky!
Great edit! Looks like you guys were having a blast.
Thanks! It's always a ball when the snow is deep and the skies are blue :)
When sun bowl is good, iz guuuuud. 😂

Revi is on my hit list.

I saw you today whistler! You caught a lil air on a side hit. Did the classic "yooohooo". Dec 27th
hahaha awesome! Glad you spotted the Whistler yoohooer in the wild.
Lovin the Leroy & Leroy references
There's always something to do!
Whistler growing on you huh? Love to see it.
It's okay I guess.... 😏
Aww yeah.... oh no! whooo hooo
9:08 can confirm that coming off that ridge there would have been fun
Those are my favourite lines on Whistler... always hiding some kick ass snow
Which run its this ? In Whistler Or Blackcomb??
Harmony Chair on Whistler
how long does it take to get good enough to do these comfortably?
Totally depends how much you ski. I know some people who have been able to ski these runs their first year on skis (with a lot of practice of course).
Our US Wired store sells outdoor ski sports equipment with guaranteed quality and ready for first time delivery.
Oh Yeah .. 2 seconds later Ohhh Noo! Nice recovery!
Skiing powder... it's a whirlwind of emotions hahaha
perfect
Going there is pride week, so excited. Awesome vid 💯
Yeeehaw! Have fun Dash.
Pow at 7th heaven today was incredible!
Such a sleeper day!
When everything opens do a best trails to ski on a powder day
That would make for a super cool video! I'd have to film it on a non-powder day though.... No stopping when the snow is deep LOL
Hey man, how long are the lines? Just curious if it’s more standing around then actually skiing

When was this? Today was all rain & shwap
most likely last weekend 8 days ago.
Was about a week or so before the rain came in
1:19 where is this?
he is doing laps in symphony zone off harmony chair.
Exactly what @blackcombgabu said!

Great idea @blackcombgabu I'll give em' a call!
Have you done air Jordan?
nope! It's on the hit list though.
