I would like to share pictures of great snow and good skiing…. But, so far we have a very dry winter. White Pass is a bit better than Haines Pass but the amount of snow is well below the normal for this time of the year. It is possible to ski, we had some nice…
After the crazy warm early December and the low amount of precipitation we had, the ski conditions are not too bad. The last snowfall has left between 15 and 25cm of new fresh cold snow. So far, this nice surface layer has been just a bit affected by the north wind. The good thing, with the warm…

A good day skiing at White Pass today, but be cautious, there are some significant changes in the snowpack. The weather was not great but not completely bad. We stopped at Log Cabin SE face (Halcyon) because of the good visibility and the minimal exposure to the cold N wind, we even got a bit…
I have skied on different locations on the Canadian side of the Pass the last 3 days, weather was great. Ski conditions are not too bad, even good to very good in some places, not very deep powder but cold non-cohesive and soft snow. General stability improved greatly. Snowpack still a bit wind affected (…
Since a few days, conditions are not too bad at White Pass, the last snow storm brought a lot of wind of course, but also some good fresh snow, it is up to us to find it. So far it is a regular winter with regular amount of snow and pretty usual conditions for this…
