Kicking Horse
I’m in Kicking Horse now and having a great time. It’s an awesome resort, with a huge range of terrain and lots of vertical. Check out the ridges! Especially Aerial #2. We got a large dump of snow on Thursday, so Friday was an excellent powder day. We took the helmet-cam out for the first time and got some decent footage, so I’ll edit some of that and stick it up here.Last night saw us heading up to the Eagle’s Eye restaurant at the top of the resort, 2350m up. We got the gondola up, had a great meal and noticed snow being blown around. By the time we were leaving, the wind was gusting up to 80km/h and the gondola ride took 50mins to get us back to base as it kept having to slow down, or stop, depending on wind speed. Swinging in a stopped gondola in an 80km/h wind is a fun experience ;-)Apart from that, it’s just more and more snowboarding. We leave here tomorrow and head to Banff, then Marmot Basin and then I think we’ll come back here for a couple of days. It’s that good!
