This term is derived from the root words gnar gnar & Narnia. Gnar being that of freshly laden snow, typically in the form of soft powder which is ideal for skiing, and Narnia being a mythical land from the mind of C.S. Lewis' novel, The Chronicles of Narnia. The combination of words creates "Gnarnia," a sought after, magical place in which the landscape is so perfect for shredding that it is nearly surreal.
"Dude, the conditions on Schweitzer were so flawless today. I thought I had stumbled into Gnarnia."

Whistler Mountain Bike Park... The best Mountain Bike Park on the planet. Especially the Garbanzo Zone...Garbanzo is so steep, technical, and rocky that it is a permanently closed area once the snow arrives. I.e. it is closed to ski/snowboarding in the winter... it puts the Gnar in Gnarnia
The snow is melting in Gnarnia... soon we will rip Goats Gully, Freight Train, and O-Sin!

(noun, plural)
Records in any recordable form, of compelling events having taken place.
Not just any events, however - said events must be:
-outlandish
-fantastical
-neutral to bad
-difficult to believe for those not present
-able to be described as "gnarly" or "gnar-gnar"
Social Media is the most commonly used medium for the recording of such gnar events, but it is not reliant upon this medium. Journals and diaries are another common form.
