Powder days?

[Gordo]

Possible powder day Monday (Jan. 17th). They are currently calling for 20+cms. Might have to take the day off.

Up to 40cm now for Ottawa and pre-emtively put in for time off due to a severe case of la skinusite! I'll be in Laurentians which is supposed to come in second at up to 35cm. I have not been out much yet this year so hopefully I don't get immediately clobbered.

Also fingers x'd the power doesn't go out at Fortune, MSS, or my backup plan Rigaud!

We got almost 50cms. Fortune was epic. They even opened Swan Dive.

We didn't get anywhere near that! Last check with my buddy at Orford yesterday was 15cms with high winds where only Giroux N and the new Alfred Desrochers Quads were running. The Hybride was closed due to high wind. We actually had some sunny breaks during the day so this storm pretty much went around us.......as usual.

@Gordo what! They never open Swan Dive! 😮 

Anyways the next powder days is upon us, looking better in the Laurentians Wednesday, then it's a toss up between Laurentians/Tremblant and Owl's Head/Sutton on Thursday/Friday. Tough call.

35cms just dropped in the Ottawa/Gatineau area. More to come later in the week.

Amazing how much came down. At first they were seemingly forecasting 15-20 cm but it is very clear it was a lot more than that. What a good start to the holidays. And it is still snowing ever so lightly right now!

I don't have any immediate plans to ski right away, but I will be off the week of January 16th so I hope to get one or two days in that week.

Camp Fortune had a power outage at 9:01 am, leading them to close for the day. My friend had gone, and waited there for three hours before the hill decided to call it. I was thinking of going, good thing school kept me home!

Very weird. Their webcam livestream an hour or so ago was running and showed the Pineault quad running with people losing and skiing. Unless it was a glitch or a recording. Strange.
