Holy Cow that's a lot of snow.

We drove into Whistler, BC and it was raining until the last 5 miles then it was SNOW. The snow was already up to the tops of the stop signs in town and they had already plowed and dug them out so you could see them. Sidewalks were tunneled out in the drifts. We're expecting 6" on the grapevine pass north of Los Angeles from this Thanksgiving storm. Snow down to 2000 foot level here.

Yup, Whistler gets a lot of snow which is why it’s a great ski destination. The crowds are brutal and the snow is a little heavy but it’s nearby Vancouver which explains the crowds. A lot more snow falls there than the plain, plateau and valley areas in North Dakota.
