The honest word on mountain conditions
Village
Summit
FEB 25
A few light flurries for trace amounts overnight. Great turns yesterday in double black terrain, with tracked and fresh powder riding in Heli High, Cauldron and Heli Face, as well as across Ktunaxa to C-Spine and Stinger. Landing Strip widening to skiers right has bedded in across the creek (I've been awaiting this all season!) and is my new favorite, playful alternative! Zone 2 is riding well on the milder pitch, and best of the day was the coffee cliffs of Mocha, Latte and Cafe! Cautious entries resolved into sweet, untracked, windloaded powder riding on wide open faces!!
Anything below 1500m is skiing very spring cycle in the current mild weather, so we are talking roughly Mile One and below. Lower off piste is not recommended currently, so stick to the groomers for daily revived slopes, that generally ski decently in the AM, and soften to a light spring layer for the PM, especially on low angle terrain and sunnier aspects.
Taynton tales for late February (more or less 'regular' Taynton now):
Taynton to Never Never Land is generally skiing quite nicely with a good base and powder turns, especially in the top half. The lower half is skiing well overall after semi regular February falls. Have an eye for open creek sections through the ski outs. Funnel is the toughest of the exits, with narrower channels. Cauldron is wider with soft packed bumps, and the far meadow drainage has some good turns down to Landing Strip, which now skis at least double the width after summer expansion. Selected openings of Monster terrain since mid month. There are hidden hazards, and it is recommended for advanced/expert broadboarders of both disciplines. MONSTER X cats run Thurs - Sun. Purchase tickets in advance at Guest Services.
Nordic and multi-use trails out of Greywolf are enjoying a highly rated season overall. Despite recent warm weather, the mostly shaded trails continue to ski better than expected! Some mixed conditions as sun changes things during the day. Please check our Nordic webpage, or direct at the Nordic Centre for more detailed information.

Triskaidekaphobic's beware!! It's a baker's dozen. Lucky for some, unlucky for others. Snow reporting primetime – the Wandering Wordsmith is on the scene for season 13! Meet your Snow Reporter:
His office is expansive, the heating bills are low
The floors are far from level, but the feng shui has good flow
All around, the views abound, but not through a window
Out and about on our fair mount, sliding on the snow!
Analytical tools aplenty, intel from the brainstrust, the knowledge and wisdom of the Panorama Avalanche Office, reports from the grooming crew, and the processing power possessed by the Countess of Accumulation, all combine to resource and inform your snow report.
In conversation with a weather station; providing explanation of the information; finding inspiration in precipitation; it's an interpretation with imagination! Not languid with his language, he knows his semaphore from his metaphor and his airhead's from his oxymoron's. Leading you to the rough diamonds and well groomed alike, it's all about explain and infotain for a net gain in our terrain!
