Not with a bang, but with a whimper...
so far this whole thing is a bust.:(
^^^It looked earily similar to that yesterday.
It looks good on satalite, but....I'lll wait till I'm skiing it...especially after last night....:eek:
What a tough crowd ... two months of complaining about no snow and now that it's here, pages of complaining that it's not enough.
I'll be at the Wood Fri-Mon on my new Praxis (Praxii?). I'm stoked to ski them in anything fresh, whether it's bottomless powder or two feet of snot on rocks.
Wow, I can't even access the Kirkwood site right now. They must have gotten so much snow it filled up all the interweb tubes.
It's sunny here in Meyers. I blame Freshies.
Fuck this. I booked my airline ticket for Cordova, AK for April 14-21. It will whiteout in Tahoe then!
Stoke meter is off the charts here!!!!! The skies are gray!:confused:
You will get nothing! And like it!
