Trip report : Lake Louise Feb 7th

The Calgary board is pretty quiet these days.:)
Our group (of 4) was on a ski trip early Feb to Revelstoke and Kicking Horse.We spared a day to visit Lake Louise since one of us insisted.However, I was a bit disappointed in the snow depth there.Among my previous visits (4 times), I don't remember seeing so many exposed rocks up top.Anyway, it was still fun although we spent most time on groom runs.Not much to report except one tree in Rock Garden really hurt me, haha.Anyway, let share a video instead.

Kicking Horse, one tough mountain.That's all I could say.:)There was no new snow whole week before our arrival, so we still missed the famous powder there.However, the snow was kept really good (same for Revelstoke).

Their runs are under-rated.Green run also doesn't exist, only one cat track.Their blue groomer could easily be named as (easy) black else where, long constant pitch groomer.You could go top-to-bottom with 1000m vertical on those, non-stop.Not my type.Their bowls, on the other hand, are quite accessible and challenging (I could dream how nice those would be after a big drop).

Anyway, I don't have my videos organized and photos are mostly on other people.Here is the only video I have from KH.Dropping down the "Bowl face".

KH的“Stairway to Heaven”我至今记忆犹新， 虽说那条雪道曾经是我心中的痛， 但是我还是很喜欢找个雪场， 而且一定会再去一次。
谢谢Brian的video report， 头盔拍摄很稳。

Brian, I am disappointed you didn't give us a shout when visiting my backyard. No, it is not the best year for louise, but I would say it's not the worst either. Front side icy, and back bowl rocky, typical louise mix. Hopefully, the rock garden tree didn't get hurt seriousely, haha.

Nate, it was really a last minute switch.We gave up a day for KH to ski Lake Louise.

Well actually, KH just "kicked" us bad enough and we are looking for an easier day out at Lake Louise.:)
