ok. Good deal.
You can't talk about snow falling until Nov. 15th??!?
There are worthwhile turns to be had way before that.
Some years there are, sure, and other years not.Quote:

can I ski with you?
Who do you think you are? Carpathian? :wink:Quote:

Holy shit, bad news for The Bowl! Pat McKay, the mountain manager, was in a motorcycle accident. I was told he has a broken femur along with other injuries.
Whether you like Pat or not, he's the only one up there who seems to know how to get the lifts going when they break down or otherwise won't run, and he is at the center of all the mountain operations.
^^wow, that sucks. Hope he gets better.
Looks like 10" on Stuart Mt snotel before an error. Who wants to go meadow skipping tomorrow? Is that even possible at snowbowl, right now?
I have avy gear and the knowledge to use it, but could use more practice and on-snow experience. And I have a good dog who needs some exercise.
yeah, uh, jumped the gun a little there. Sorry. It's been a while.
Its skiable up here, in case you feel like driving this weekend. Big Mtn's base is at 37". I've got two days in so far, and it was good.
damn. nice.
I don't have any touring gear though. Plus, I thought with my dislike for bluecheese, I wasn't welcome.
hmmm. forgot about the blue cheese issue. I'm not sure I can get over that.
a lack of touring gear is also going to be a hurdle, although I do have a spare touring setup at the moment...
The lack of free time and money is also a big issue. Stupid good grades!
She's getting pretty close, I reckon.
WOOT, WOOT!
Stuart Mountain Snotel is showing 18" in the past 24 hours.
