Hi Guys

I'm also new to vancouver island and I am looking for people to ski with. I'm planning to go night skiing a lot this winter. I live in Ladysmith and will be going to VIU.

Sweet :) I'll try to come some weekends too. The night season's pass is so cheap, that's why I went for that, but I may be able to get a few day tickets.

awesome, if your really into park it will be perfect, the park is always empty at night, like maybe 10-15 people tops, its defiantly worth it

As you know I'm from Vic. I don't get up as much as I used to though. When I'm up there I'll usually hiking the Outback chair with my buddy or taking laps rarely through the park.

Yeah hike from the tope of the Eagle up, not exactly secretive because it is a trail that you hike up and ski down into the basin on unmarked trails.

If you guys are in university check out UVic Snow, a couple buddies and I run it. Well I just gradded and moved to Vancouver but they're still keeping it going strong.

There should be a rail jam announced soon and theres tons of events and trips (trips for club members only though) coming up.

If you're interested look up UVic Snow on FB, tons of sweet people to shred with.

Get on it!

Fuck yeah, I'm stoked. I'll hopefully be transferring there in a couple years when I'm done with Camosun courses.
