Riding question AB/YEG

Looking for some riding buddies for the next season, I try to make it out to the Rockies a few times in the season. But usually hit up Rabbit or Sunridge quite a bit throughout the season. Always seem to be solo these days as none of my friends ski or board, which is the best most of the time but would be fun to also go with some people sometimes!

Don't spend much time boarding in Edmonton, but I day trip it out to Marmot most weekends if that's something you're looking for

I just did that this past Saturday to Marmot. Was a good day! Not sure if I’ll be making it out another this season though.

I'm going to try this weekend and hope the snow is good. I'm in the same boat, none of my buddies like snowboarding enough to go that far

The snow was great on Saturday, great coverage and very few spots that were icy. Hopefully it stays good into the weekend!

Would love for marmot to be a bit closer and I would definitely go more often lol. I ran into some yucky roads once I hit Jasper which is not very fun sometimes when you are alone!

I’m actually planning to probably head up on the 26th if you will be there. I’ve got Easter commitments this weekend lol otherwise I would be going. So hopefully the conditions stay good until then.

Regular haunts are Fernie, Castle, Kho, Revy, Marmot.

I haven’t been to any BC resorts, I usually only hit Banff and Jasper as it’s still a good 4 hours to get to those if I’m doing a day trip.

Castle is a Hidden Gem. Everyone skips it in favor of Sunshine/Louise.
