Spent the Feb 13-15 weekend at Kicking Horse. It was Alberta Family Day weekend, so it was a zoo, but the skiing was great!
The spectacular early season they had is clearly apparent, with great coverage from the chutes up top to the groomers at the bottom. Some of the lower pitches are less twiggy than I've ever seen them.
We had ~10 cm every morning for our 3 days, and they'd had lots of snow the weekend before, so conditions were soft everywhere. The south/east-facing sides of CPR and Redemption ridge were a bit crusty under the newer snow - evidence of the ridiculous warm weather we've been having the past few weeks. Still good skiing though, I had some great fresh turns on those slopes!
