Wow!
1234567
we'll be skiing pow into august!!
simply amazing...
sweet post. That is amazing how much snow is still up there!
When I moved out here last year, I thought Alta had the best snow I ever skied. No wonder why all the locals looked at me funny when I said that. And here I thought everyone was just ungrateful. Now I understand just how spoiled skiers really are out here.
being spoiled is in your mind. its a mental problem alot of alta skiers have. i heard people complaining about days this season on the lift. when i remember the only "bad" ski day was closing day when it didnt soften up.
So what are the totals? Over 700"?
That is awesome! I hope it means we are in for even more for next season!
I spent the season at alta/snowbird last year. Everyone constantly bitched how it sucked (which it did, statistically). But, LCC is amazing even on the shittiest years, if you're not a complete retard. That's by far the most snow I've seen in LCC this late ever. Looks like there is more there than some of the cascades even. I'm excited to get out there when I graduate U of W and ski post-grad pow.
Holy shit.
:yourock: :yourock: :yourock: :yourock:

bird is all melted, everyone knows alta gets way more snow. :cool:
Keep in mind they just got fresh snow. It would be a more fair comparison (still amazing) if they did it when the new snow melts.
actually the fresh snow doesnt do much for the pic but not make it look like a dust storm blew in last week of alta, the snow is reallly dirty.
Good lookin' runnoff year!
I'm in the same boat. People were bitching all season, and I still had some of the best days of my life. When 400" is your worst winter in decades, you know you've got something good going on...Quote:

The one constant is that the chairs are all off the cable and on the ground.

The snowfall history page on their website stopped counting at 701.5" on April 30th. It's easily snowed another 3-4' since then so I'd say we're probably over 750"Quote:
