    Banff vs Lake Louise for beginners?

    I went to Banff when i was an advanced beginner / low intermediate skier. I enjoyed Sunshine village (SSV) more than lake Louise (LL). For SSV, i feel I can ski more places without feeling overwhelmed/overterrained. I did their free mountain tour, they have groups for light blue (advanced...

    Heavenly March 12-19

    Heavenly is very heavenly. Back to Heavenly today. Met up with @santacruz skier around mid-day, we had lunch at Tamarack lodge and spent the remaining day skied some trees and bumps. I would not venture out these tree runs if just me and my nephew. We are too cautious and not familiar with...

    Multi-resort passes for 2022-23: Ikon, Epic, Indy etc.

    Not likely to go w/ Epic pass next year. Reason, I don't use enough days at my local Epic pass locations in PA (Liberty, Whitetail, Roundtop) to justify the purchase. Local Epic mtns are very crowded in weekends, I ski defensively and lost my forms when it is crowded. It is just not fun and...

    Heavenly March 12-19

    Views from Heavenly is truly stunning. There are several spots in different parts of the mountain offer this impressive view. For comparison, it has better scenery than Banff (SSV and LL) in my opinion. It is neat that I can ski across state lines between Nevada and California. I skied 3...

    Sun Valley

    Cat tracks are actually wider than most cat tracks I've skied. They are also not moguly at the end of the day. I am satisfied. Plus I need to take it easy because I think I sprained my right knee in SLC. I still have 2 more trips to go this season....

    What to do in Montreal?

    24 hours if driving? Last time I checked (after Thanksgiving), it is 24 hours if flying, 72 hours if driving. Perhaps the rules are changed again due to Omicron. That's why we decided to cancel our WB trip coming season, too many variables and uncertainties. We decided to go to Tahoe...

    Help Needed: Lodging recommendation: Lake Tahoe Epic resorts

    Tree skiing - if it is like tree skiing off Southern Comfort chair (Congo run) at Big Sky, then I don't mind checking out. If tree skiing is like the ones at Taos, then I will say no..... Truckee is only 15-20 mins. drive to N*, I just google mapped it. It is super close. I don't think I...
