But it'll come... might not be until March, but it'll get here. I'll drive somewhere else in the meantime :)

You know it is snowing in the mountains as we speak? Where are you planning on roadtripping? I am going to Eiseman this weekend and then going up to Steamboat next week for a few days.

I think Whistler is going off right now. But I think all of those options sound good. But what if CO gets the most snow? ;)

And where the pics of said truck?

I am going Sunday night to Wednesday night. If your said exams finish next monday, drive up Monday night and we can ski Tuesday and Wednesday. Not that difficult supergenius

And yes, you look EXACTLY like LURCH.

That is what I like to hear shredhead. And I may retract some of my statements regarding the weather system this weekend. The models are trending towards colder temperatures but less precip :nonono2:

That is good. Going to Eiseman this upcoming weekend, so snow in that area would be nice.

Jeesus Dave, you post a freakin' lot! :)

Eiseman should be sweet this weekend! Careful out there though... if it snows a lot that is.

Yeah, I've been watching it. I'm keeping my eye on the SW because I have this feeling it's gonna snow down there more than up here... but maybe not this storm. Always ready for a little road-trip action. Sounds like Steamboat might be the ticket!

I'm stuck here at the office (unless there is some dawn patrol action happening) all week until Thursday night. Fuggin' cubicle. I need to get some blower. Recycled pow is fun and all, but I need a fix. STAT. Even my deep San Juan turns of late were mankyish for powder... fugg.

It's game on for me after next wednesday. I'll road trip anywhere. Actually thinking about it I NEED a good roadtrip. Been too long....

I do post, a shit ton. Borderlines on an addiction. But currently I am in the process of wasting time until my 1pm CST exam on the Ideas of the First Amendemnt:cussing:

stressing over the weather helps me not stress over the exam.

Werd. Anything other than exams! Though I miss exams in a sick sort of way. Now I stress out about hostile clients, RFPs, deliverable deadlines and go-live dates.... lame.

I am fascinated by the Pugsly. White Pine has couple rentals and I kinda want to take one out just to try it...

It sucked today, Blurred. Only 9-10" of fast snow with low avy hazard.;)

Nothing groundbreaking, but fun none the less.

How do you feel about illegal aliens?

They're the ones responsible for the lack of snow.

8-10" of the speedy stuff, a groggy post night shift mind, and solitude. They go together well.
