So this Pineapple express finally cooled down enough to turn the wetness into snow. Up to 80 cm of it dropped on the Coquihalla (Whistler only received a meager 10 cm). After much studying of snow/weather/temperature reports I (reluctantly) joined friends for a day at Needle Peak. My resistance against inertia was rewarded! It wasn't quite effortless hero powder and skiing required a bit of work but there were deep turns and plenty of face shots and lots of smiles. Welcome back, winter!
