Rocking Horse
Counting vertical or overloading the bliss meter
Skiing Wildhorse Peak for the first time this season. This line blows the bliss meter off the charts. It's only 400 feet but this one you will remember for a long time. Its all about quality not quantity. Wildhorse Catskiing is right in the center of the Kootenay Powder Triangle and the snow quality is some of the best and the terrain is simply mind-blowing. But don't take my word for it - check it out for yourself.

The endless snowfalls of March 2011
This winter has just continued from great skiing in December through January into February and then March we just got hammered and winter is showing no sign of slowing down. We had one day of sun this winter that was strong enough to put a crust on south facing slopes and then two days later it just dumped again and buried that so great skiing on all aspects again.
