Only a silly, nutty, crazy ski fanatic would call July 13, with flowers in full bloom, "late in the season". OMG LOL

I should, but I tend to turn into a tub of lard.....
Wrong season and maybe wrong place, but I have a Yakima Skybox 18 I would like to sell, if anyone is interested!

Nice spring outing mr toque. I'm sorry the big prize was not attained due to thin snow but the adventure looks worthwhile.

Good idea for a low hazard solo adventure. I often ski this route when things are busy elsewhere.

Thanks very much for your reply ODA. Your prompted me to make a change...
Now when you click the Home button, you will see a COMPLETE listing of all trip reports AND follow-up comments. I've colored the reports blue and the comments red so they are easy to differentiate. The list is sorted by post date (latest first). Click the trip report title and you will see the full report and associated comments.
I continue to show the "Post Summary" button. This is shorter and summarizes just the trip reports. The number of comments associated with each report is provided.
I think this is much more useful. thanks for your question.

Hi,
Any chance we can see all posts for a given day or week? Or is that available now? Seems like I can only see the comments that I click on.
Thanks for taking this over Roger.

Date: Thursday May 06, 2021
I have had the immense pleasure of meeting Bob on the trails on a number of occasions and most recently while skiing with the Shell and Esso retiree groups. Like some many others who have followed your blog over the years, Bob, you can’t be thanked enough for your tireless dedication in promoting the sport, fostering goodwill amongst those who share the trails and your efforts to encourage all levels to get out and enjoy what winter has to offer. You have been a wonderful ambassador that will be missed

Chuck - I nearly broke an ankle on that little hill last spring when the crust failed suddenly, so I was determined to redeem myself and get some good turns this time.
Roger - The mountains do all the work, I just point my phone at them and let them work their magic!

Wow Sara... Thanks for the great trip report, and those are pretty awesome turns for a skate skier on crust!
I'm sure Roger appreciates this type of report while he develops his blog during the end of a season.

You two know how to live.
Ski to one of the most beautiful spots in the world on a beautiful spring day, and then treat yourselves to a cosmopolitan lunch of New York Cheddar chips and Naramata Nut Brown Ale.
Love it!

Thanks for the kind words Ken.
I’ve always wanted to give back to the community. This seemed like a good way. So far, its been fun and challenging. And yes, a little stressful haha!
Plenty of things to add and improve.

OK ... not a trip report.... but a huge congratulations, and, to be honest, a sign of relief. So many of us fretted about how/if a replacement for SkierBob would ever happen. And, for sure Roger is off to a terrific start.

Fabulous outing. Funny, there was also a guy on the old site named Steve who was always posting crocuses. What a coincidence.
Hey Tim.Coombs, Hwy 66 (Elbow Falls Trail) has the same dealio. Closed til May 15 beyond the falls.

I am definitely in favour of these reports when the skiing ends. Great to see which roads are still closed where road rides can happen. Highwood Pass and 1A were the only ones I was aware of this far. Thanks!
