Yeah, and those spruce will take much longer to come down than the lodgepole. Mixed with the burn scar, it's an area that has changed dramatically in 5 years. Still beautiful country.Quote:

Is this recent? I was just at a party a few weeks ago in pagosa and one of the guys there was trying to unload a lot. He said it back to National Forest and was in the fifties... was an intriguing offer but didn't jump while still researching but maybe too late nowQuote:

Hard to say who won. Turned around a couple hundred feet below the summit to ensure my corn harvest would be sunlit, but got soaked on the exit. Views were good before the clouds rolled in:

Wonder if ABasin will reopen Pali?
Gonna be an epic shitshow no matter what. Might be quicker to skin up than wait in line.
extremely doubtfulQuote:

I'll take the under!
snowing pretty hard here at 9600'
at least 6 inches in breck, prolly more, dumping, no wind, maybe someone was right, looks like I'll be skiing this afternoon
ABasins snowstake is showing 15-16"?
Arrrrgh have a recert class... can't get out of it!
I guess 9". They really need to put numbers on that thing ugh. 9" on coral reef will prob ski like shit anyway. Plus its almost all alpine so you wouldn't be able to see shit. Doubt youre missing much at the resort.
keep telling everyone that and hope the highway shuts downQuote:

I70 did shut down, per usual.
....and closed! I'm on my way to pick up a man lift for a big 2 month project. It will probably sit until Monday at $250/day. Good think it is in the bid. I don't know why management companies let me write the contract. "No responsible for water damage due to weather", no start date, no completion date, front loaded payments, "contractor has the right to work in the most efficient manner possible", I get paid to shovel etc.Quote:
