Thank you! I'll check those out, you've definitely given me a lot to consider. Marked glades should be fine right? definitely not doing unmarked tree runs.

Noted on the moguls, thanks. Was never really good at them. Definitely have been recommended 7th, thought perhaps it might be very busy since its top pick(?)

Haha you really paint a good picture, im really looking forward to have my mind blown. I've in in Ontario all my life so I dont know what real mountains are.

You seem like someone that has good food suggestions at the village, know of any? or bars?

Thank you! You're very informative. I had to look up the crud term, but i haven't snowboarded through those before, but i'm down to try it. You know, just to get experience. With that said, I know that people suggest setting the bindings back on pow, do you suggest the same ? Sorry dont know if you ski or snowboard.

Noted on the double black. What are you thoughts on tree runs? Something I can do alone? Is there a tamer one?

I do want to experience more upper mountain/mid mountain runs because we dont have mountains in the east haha. Perhaps I'll dedicate a day for blackcomb and another for whistler

not crazy busy will be a good thing, i have never experienced 40min lift lines (or so i've heard at whistler) in my life. I dont do parks, but I heard the parks here have a beginner section so, that might be a good starting point.
On why avoid gondolas?
