Well it’s been a while since I wrote. Having too much fun snowboarding I suppose. After driving the Icefield Parkway we made it to Jasper and headed up to Marmot Basin for a couple of days riding. The resort turned out to be a bit disappointing and we’d done all the interesting stuff in less than a day. We took it easy for the other two days and just messed around as we knew we were heading back to Kicking Horse anyway.

Kicking Horse was just as awesome the second time around. We got 12cm of snow overnight after our first day there, so myself and Tom got to do all the stuff we’d missed out on the first time. We rode more ridges and spent a lot more time in the Feuz Bowl which had great snow and nice steep ridges which weren’t mogulled up.

We attempted to book snowmobiling in Revelstoke, but it was booked solid, so we decided to head back to Fernie for a week since we’d heard they’d had a metre of snow in the last few days. We arrived on Saturday only to find that the temperature had risen significantly and the lower slopes were turning to mush. Sunday was OK, but nothing special, so I took Monday and Tuesday off as my legs were itching for a break after the steeps and moguls of Kicking Horse….
