EDIT: sorry to hear that Fritz.
I just want to reiterate how much I hate you all right now.
I will be eagerly awaiting pictures tomorrow night. Best of luck with the cancelled flights, Yoss! (I hope that's not bad karma to say that...)
Come on CDOT, keep it open a bit longer.
We are hoping to get out of Boulder around 4 and get to Summit. Lets see if CDOT can keep it open into the evening when things really pickup. If not, we do the super early departure tomorrow morning or just head to Eldora or super secret spots in RMNP (could be slow though as the angle is low and predicted snow fall high)
Thanks, but I'm fucking stoked. Might just head up I-70 in a couple hours now.Quote:

One snow flake and the entire front range goes to hell.
There's always 285 and 9. Might be the way to go tonight.Quote:

I fear CDOT may just go in to lock down.
Yoss... We are very disapointed in your failure to teach those around you the number one rule concerning powder day etiquette.;)
Girlfriend, girlfriends friends... If there's a friend in there, it don't matter. No friends on a powder day!
HA! Right on man!Quote:

I mean, I am sure it'll work out, I just think I'm gonna get hosed, i.e., end up not being able to get out in time to get out, then end up waiting for the friend's on Friday/Saturday because at that point, it's the reasonable thing to do, and as a result, get no skiing in.
Oh well, can't win em all!
Hey Chuck, you think the super early AM friday thing would work? Basically just get out there before there's any shitshow, even if the road conditions aren't great? Snow is fine - 4x4 jeep w/blizzaks - it's the other drivers that fuck everything up! ;)
Or Eldora in the morning. Not sure how much time I am willing to commit to sitting in the car tonight.Quote:

If it stays a mess tonight, that is our plan. Like a 5:30 departure from Boulder to avoid traffic. This however all relies on CDOT keeping roads open, which is touch and go.Quote:

fuck, I70 is closed at georgetown due to multiple accidents....should reopen though??
Seriously!Quote:

Kenosha Pass and S park look fine. Zero traffic and good vis.

This "Gosey" needed to be quoted. Max, perhaps in your downtime you can do a little weather lernin.Quote:

Hope to see a few of the mags up their in the morning.
I hate this part.
Stay and gamble
or
Leave and gamble
who can say. Got fucked the last time around by the double pass closure but this time around that might not be such a problem provided 70 or 285 is open. :/
How much do you 'spose the ski train could make in times like this if they hooked some flatbeds on for folks to put thier autos on?
one beeelion dollars.
