Hey everybody. It's been an unusually warm week here in Whistler much like the rest of BC. With 9C in the alpine and sun yesterday, this topped off a number of days in a row with freezing levels way above normal. A week ago, we received a bit of fresh snow (below), then the weather shifted and everyone hung up their skis and got out their bikes instead.
The base at Whistler Blackcomb took a major beating this week, dropping about 20cm, and it feels like spring down here in the valley.
In Squamish however, the biking was epic. Trails are in great condition, it's nice and warm, so we may as well take advantage of some unexpected January riding while it's here! The trails are super tacky, not slippery.. if you were planning a ski touring holiday to Whistler this week, you might want to re think it, or bring your bike instead.
Warm temps are expected to stick with us for the next 5 days, with no precip forecasted. Where are you, winter?
