Weekend Travel Section Roundup: Snow Report

On Easter long weekend 2004, we decided to go camp on Flute mountain, at that time out of Whistler Mountain's boundaries and a few years pre Symphony express. We got our snowshoes, backpacks, tent and beers and made our way up the ridge. We set up camp and built a kicker over the weekend. Too our amazement, the sun came out and it was cooking hot. Earlier that week it had snowed so we had fresh lines under the 20 degree sun for the whole weekend. With a budget camera we filmed our activities. This is not a pro video but just clips put together from the weekend from a Hi8 cam and a Canon Elf. Hope you like it!!
