Cross country skiing in the Vancouver area has been nearly impossible this year. Since Boxing Day, the weather has been just too mild. The rains have washed away most of the snow on our local mountains. There is even concern now with the Olympics just around the corner that Cypress, in particular, will have problems hosting the events to be held there.
This past weekend, we headed for Manning Park and Princeton to ski. There is enough snow at Manning but it was quite icy in the lower sections. We drove up to Strawberry Flats and had good skiing in that area.
The best, though, was at China Ridge in Princeton. Conditions were excellent, the weather great and the scenery spectacular! It was a perfect day.
You can see what it looks like on their very excellent website.
