More than 30 feet (909cm) of snow has fallen on Village Ski and Snowboard Resort in Banff National Park since opening day, the most snow on record in Sunshine’s 84-year history.
“This the best snow in Sunshine Village history, and we have two months left in the season,” said John Scurfield, Senior Vice President of Resort Operations, Sales and Marketing of Sunshine Village. “This is an all-time record snowfall, more than I’ve seen in my entire life and I began skiing at Sunshine in 1970.”
Sunshine, which received more than 7 feet of snow in the first half of March alone, is commemorating the record snowfall with free cake and balloons at Creekside restaurant.

Skiers are overjoyed. No comment from Al Snore.
There’s something in it for everyone. I for one am investing in hybrid-electric snowmobiles. (I was going to go with solar originally, but there’s just not sufficient sunlight bleeding through the blizzard to properly charge the batteries).
It’s all false snow, paid for by the Koch brothers to make people believe that anthropogenic global warming does not exist. They have installed a very big, immense, but invisible snow-making machine up in the sky to distribute snow all over the planet, even in saudi Arabia, Morocco and places where they have not seen snow for centuries, or ever.
>t.i.c. now removed: We are in the initial years of a Maunder minimum.
wow, thats a whole lot of frozen water!
gee, lets see… that is 360 inches of snow, or the equivalent of 36 inches(!) of rain!
We had over 4 inches of rain in LESS THAN AN HOUR on Thursday last week with some 15 + inches in 24 hours.
And our homegrown alarmists said we’d be subject to never ending drought and if rain fell it wouldn’t be sufficient to guarantee filling our dams.
More than 4 inches in an hour -r reminds me of 1974 when rain fell at more than an inch an hour for more than a day and cleared to a beautiful sunny day on Saturday to reveal an enormous amount of Brisbane under water – more than 2011.
Tahoe could use a whole mess of that.
