Spring time
The valley has begun to melt down in the last few weeks, it would appear that no more snow should accumulate down in the valley anyway. Up top it's still winter and the base continues to hover around 300cm. Some warm storms have come through spiking the freezing levels. Good powder still to be found in backcountry areas late into the season this year with good coverage in all areas. Recent snow measurements in the Whistler backcountry found well over 4.5m of snowpack.
