had a big dump over the last 7 days.
Weather -6C. We are leaving Calgary on Sunday at 6:00 a.m. and arrive Castle Mountain at around 9:00 a.m. When skiing is over, we’ll head back home. We should leave Castle around 4:30 p.m. and should be back in Calgary around 8:30 p.m. Car pool will be at Smitty's restaurant - Westbrook Mall (1200 37 St SW) or Macleod Trail (9640 Macleod Trail S).
