Snow on first day of summer reminds us ski season is less than 6 months away

June 21 is typically marked as the first day to celebrate all things under the sun, given it's the first day of summer. But instead, this past weekend we got a great reminder from Ullr that in around 150-160 odd days, we ski and snowboard again!
Here's a round up to some of the white gold that fell across many of our favourite resorts this past weekend:
Mt. Norquay saw it too, and posted about it in this reel.
Lock in your stoke
Lots of early bird deadlines are up for end of June to score the best deals on winter season's passes, I've heard from lots of buddies who've scored theirs in the past few, did you lock in yours yet?
Just do it, your soul will thank you later! Low on cash? no worries, check in with the Resorts, many offer payment plans.
My stoke for the coming is high given I just scored a huge memento from Marmot Basin, having secured one of their old Knob Chairs where my buddy @liamburr was able to turn it into a seat for me!

Picking up a piece of history, one of Marmot Basin's retired Knob chairs.
This chair has huge sentimental value, given the first ever ski story I ever wrote in my life, now 25 odd years ago, was about Marmot Basin on their expert terrain found off the Knob Chair.
Let 'er snow, let 'er snow ... soon we shred!
