Not much here in the northern Front Range either... maybe 2" on the grass in Niwot. It did rain pretty hard last night before it turned over to snow, though.
that, plus the snow is compacting/melting quickly. I have maybe 2" showing in Boulder, but I bet a total of 4-5" actually fell.Quote:

What kind of report? It's fall. Sometimes is snows but usually not enough to go skiing. If you want to take your skis for a walk, have at it. I'd suggest doing something else.Quote:

See CAIC frontpage, click on snowfall
I don't see Berthoud in there - maybe the instrument isn't yet working up there. Looking at Cotrip's camera it looks like a couple inches.
8" up on Snowmass per Gwyn's
Mostly melted down here in the valley.
Both Loveland and Berthoud had plenty of skier activity after the last storm. This storm was supposed to produce 12"-18" potentially in the northern mtns...I was wondering if that came to fruition on BP. Doesn't sound like it though.Quote:

I don't disagree but both locations had deep pockets of blown-in snow last week. I hiked on Loveland last week and people were shuttling up the pass [emoji23]Quote:

Good turns were had today on Loveland Pass, felt like the Beach at ABay. People had grills out and tunes!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d788991d4.heic
3" in Vail that pretty much melted off by afternoon. They are firing up the Golden Peak guns, but don't know if they'll hold on to it all.
I'm thinking Friday is the ABasin or Loveland opening...
skunked in Breck with only .5"-1" of snow. yeehaw, bike season lives!
It certainly looks like ski season up high... I'm not too sure we'll see the temps to burn this off especially on the N aspects... so, yeah, the earlier gripes were realz.
CO snowpack baby!
B/C season is over until April or May so going to sell my in the wrapper Coombacks instead of mounting them.
ABasin opens Friday!!
Fuck that noise. I will wait until they at least have ramrod and Sundance open before wasting my time with that. Maybe I’ll even wait until Keystone opens so then the crowds of idiots will go there.Quote:
