Lake Louise Open for the 2019/2020 Season Nov1

Looking down Easy Street to Whiskey Jack lodge

 

Nov 1 2019 Friday

It was a surprise to find Lake Louise was opening before Sunshine a week earlier than planned.  Cold temperatures had helped to make more snow than normal.So we went and checked it out. No natural snow but it turned out to be a beautiful sunny day and few people. No Wiwaxy 500 race on today. The condition were as expected hard racing snow. Sharp edges and narrow skis the order of the day. All in all a pleasant start to the season.

Driving to Lake Louise to ski and no snow

No natural snow to be seen on the lower part of the hill

Top of the Glacier Express and ready for the first run of the season

A little natural snow up Grizzly Gully. They are replacing the cable on the Top of the World Chair

Greg happy to be back on skis

Easy Street

No traffic and no snow strange way to start the 2019-20 ski season
