Please see below message from the Whistler Area Park Ranger


Hello,

The Singing Pass trail used to ski out from the Musical Bumps Backcountry Area is in bad shape due to having about 50 trees down across it.  What used to take 30 min now takes about 2-2.5hrs with the bulk of the trees down across the trail between Signing Pass and Oboe Creek.  Hopefully the trees get cut off in the next week or so, but until then it may be better to return to Whistler Resort and ski out that way... watch out for winch cats and sleds after hours on the resort...
