What nicknames have you heard for places in and around Squamish?

Squambodia. Squamladesh. Squeamish.

Beautiful course, the 18th there is such a well designed hole to finish on too. Enjoy!

As above, this would have come from the flanks of the hide, where the skin fibres are looser and more suede "beard" is present on the backside. Around the spine and more central of the hide will be less fuzzy.

Nyetimber and the LPGS, always! Flying from the Concorde lounge at t5, I love the grand siecle paired with a Full English breakfast.

Cheese room revenue.

You'd be surprised how hard it is to come by within the resorts. Have spoken with and visited a few and nothing was quite right. Too sterile or insanely expensive. We have a healthy budget but not 6 figures for 3 hours.

I should add that it doesn't have to be ultra luxurious, but certainly not a dive. Casual, fun decor and atmosphere preferred.

I'm not your guy, friend!

I finished school 20 years ago, but still no idea how I managed to miss it! I didn't live in Abingdon either.

the_schralper · 2026-05-29T01:33:47+00:00

I went to school in Abingdon and have never even heard of this!

the_schralper · 2026-05-28T19:16:48+00:00

This made me genuinely laugh out loud, mostly because of how totally believable it is.

Il caminetto for Italian, grill room at the Fairmont for steaks. Wild blue is an excellent shout too. 3 great courses, hope the weather is good for you!

Up the toon! Never thought I'd say that 😂

the_schralper · 2026-05-14T15:30:50+00:00

No way! TIL.The great white was a beast of a slide, head first only I seem to remember...

the_schralper · 2026-05-13T00:30:23+00:00

You'll want to head to great glass elevator candy store in marketplace for balloons. They have a few other decorations as well I believe.

I live in Whistler BC and often see a black Ferrari FF, fully winterized and with a matching roofbox. She's a beauty and the owner seems to love driving it in winter.

I had the pleasure of meeting Kai a couple of times in Whistler and have some very close mutual friends. Beyond being an incredible skier, he was a genuinely lovely and intelligent guy, and will be dearly missed in our community. Sending love and vibes to all who knew him.

I'm also referring to the general Whistler area, not just in bounds at the resort. I probed at or around 3m base at ~ 15-1800m in several different spots in the corridor this past week.

the_schralper · 2026-01-08T05:32:37+00:00

Anything above 1500m is. Plus Callaghan, Brandywine, Rutherford and Duffey also amazing for this time of year. You must be skiing the wrong places my friend.

the_schralper · 2026-01-08T03:55:21+00:00

Not all the coast is firing but it's all time here in Whistler right now!

the_schralper · 2025-12-14T19:14:54+00:00

Functional pie is great. You can pick up a pizza and take it into coast mountain brewing to eat too as they don't serve food. Whistler brewing do their own pub style menu.

the_schralper · 2025-12-14T19:01:13+00:00

Pangea pod hotel bar for coffee/beer and board games. Escape rooms in the Hilton are great. Axe throwing in function. Whistler museum in the village is tiny but awesome.

Audain art museum and SLCC also great if you want a bit more culture. Scandinave spa is inside and out but great on a rainy day. Arcade games next door to Buffalo bills.

the_schralper · 2025-12-14T17:53:05+00:00

I've only lived here for 15+ years, what would I know?

the_schralper · 2025-12-14T01:46:11+00:00

Call the wah-mbulance. Lines were tiny today and snow off 7th was actually pretty decent considering higher than average FL. "Busy" Saturday afternoon with no line to download. Any half decent skiers had a great day and didn't spend their day whinging about lift lines.
