JM_ Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Just wondering if anyone here has experience skiing Horseman Glacier during the summer? Is it all terrain park or are the runs too? I'd like to use alpine gear and find some areas to climb up and ski down but I've never been up there and don't know if thats possible in the summer.

luckylager Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 The park is great. Not much for "runs" if you're looking for big long carves. I like heading up there with a six pack, burying it in the snow and chilling in the sun, drinking between park laps...Well, back in the day at least. If I didn't have a pass I wouldn't have gone up though. Too expensive for very limited terrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically I just want somewhere to go for some short alpine climbing and short runs, and to not have to wait 6 more months to ski. i already miss Cypress.

MJDDawg Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 If it's a sunny day, skiing on Horstman Glacier is a great experience. Ride the T-bar up the hill and enjoy. Yes there's limited terrain but on a sunny afternoon in June or July there's nothing like spending a couple of hours skiing while only wearing a t-shirt, having lunch and a couple of pops.

Riding in a Tshirt and board shorts, drinking, it's a pretty good time. You should probably go check it out mid July for a day. It'll be worth it.
