Volunteers have done an amazing job of roller packing many of the trails in preparation of the season.
Actually, I have never been to WBC before, but for today it was an excellent choice. It is a long way from Banff (where I live), but Jess and Shauni pointed out to me, it was a safer drive than they had to put up coming out of Calgary, and the signage at every junction is excellent.
Yes, all the snow and the initial grooming was very welcome. Carl and Rosie reminded me that these up slope winds did their traditional job at this time of year. Banff and Lake Louise did not get much snow.
With temperatures ranging from -8 to -3, I used a little bit of VR40 kick wax, which worked admirably.
I skied Mountain Road, Mountain View West, Moose Loop and the Moose Connector (this last one is actually not packed yet).
