Tr:  Powder on Seymour Dec 26

Half an hours drive from North Vancouver is Mount Seymour.  I'd planned on taking out some rookie backcountry tourers there on Boxing Day.  It's usually garbage bags and ice skates conditions.  Today we found 40cms of blower light powder - click here for more





Enjoyable photos.  I can see that you are developing a group of "young" trailbreakers.  It took me a few years to understand that new backcountry enthusiasts are eager to exhibit their trailbreaker strengths.  They just need coaching about terrain selection for putting in a reasonable uptrack.  Keep up the good work "coach", us senior guys are counting on you and your "students". 

Jill and I have 10 free days of lift skiing at Cypress with our local Snoqualmie passes.  Can you PM me some sidecountry tours at Cypress ?

Thanks

This is one of the coolest reports I have seen this year, thanks!

No secrets Zap.  The only tour close by Cypress is off Hollyburn Peak.  Its the peak off the top of the xc ski area and is a miniscule tour plagued by snowshoers
