WBCOOP

Currently in Whistler for a couple of weeks where the snow is phenomenal but the visibility poor. A forced rest day today when the weather closed almost all of the lifts. Sun is due out at the weekend so fingers crossed I'll manage to stay injury free for the WBCOOP the week after which will bring this PLO cashy out of Tourney hibernation.
