| AtoP News - April 26, 2009 - Posted by Sirius Geek | | At Addicted to Powder we are like most of you; we have families, careers, business, and all those other necessary distractions in life that supercede skiing/riding. If we can manage to get in over twenty days in a season we are doing awesome. We too cross our fingers that the snow will dump on our scheduled days off so we can play in the powder. We struggle through workdays sneaking glimpses of snow cams while our so called friends plunge through the deep stuff without us. At the end of the ski season we pack up our gear and get ready for a favorite summer time adventures. But always in the back of our minds we dream of the deepest turns on the steepest slopes we can find. We sock away our empty bottle money and take on side jobs so we can have our ski funds for the winter. Throughout the summer we will scheme and plan for the next season. What new resorts will we hit for the first time? Will this be the year we finally heliski? Can we find a good deal on some ultra fat planks for the copious amounts of powder we will encounter? How far to the left should we move the house so our spouses will let us sneak off skiing? Stay tuned through the off season as we keep you all in the loop of our plans at A2P. There have been rumblings of a multi resort British Columbia road trip. Maybe you are not as messed up obsessed as we are but then again, maybe you are. If you are checking out this site you like snow sports and it is only a matter of time till the powder drug takes over and adrenaline rules your life. Stop now, before it’s too late; the lift lines are getting too long. See you on the slopes next season. |

| Featured Resort - Mount Cain | | |  Mount Cain is north of Campbell River on Vancouver Island. Mount Cain has 18 runs. This mountain has great snow, and the best part... its only open on weekends and some mondays, that means the snow piles up for 4-5 days!! There are 2 T-Bars that service the mountain, the lines are almost nonexistent. Mount Cain has a small lodge with hot food and entertainment (some nights).. Accommodations are scarce, but reasonably priced. If you don't have over night accommodations it is advised to plan ahead. Campers seem to be welcome to stay over night in the parking lot. There are runs for every ability, it almost feels like your alone at Cain you don't really feel like your at a ski resort when your skiing/boarding... just on your own. Mt Cain is a unique mountain and definetaly worth the driveFor more information check out the stats for Mount Cain or click here to go to the Mount Cain website. |
