The Maui Magic, I pack the bag, print boarding passes, the surf comes WAY up and the flakes start fallin'
Parking the polaris, prepping for Powder! Can hear Jaws breaking from bed, the weather map looks sweet!

More snow falling at the tunnel right now, maybe this 3-4 inch storm will turn epic. Really doubt it though.

i think today is supposed to be pretty mellow, but they are saying tonight and tomorrow it should pick up. clearing on friday through the weekend should make for some good conditions.

I'll be in the backcountry this weekend. Have a fun trip, however!!

If your skiing one of the "five mountains". vail all the way. the difference in quality and amount of terrain (at least at this moment in time) is obsurd. don't know how much of sundays pow is left, but they're has been a little here and there this week, and more coming sunday (As per snowforecast.com)

**montanaskier** · 12-03-2008, 11:14 PM

hey VPM, you're new, you like to ski, we get it. People know about Vail...no need to remind folks every time you turn around to come ski here, we get plenty.

cool blog.

**COBound** · 12-03-2008, 11:15 PM

Can anyone explain the consistant snowband north of Cheyenne? It's been going like that all day. Reminds me of the lake effect snowbands off of the great lakes.

From the Urban Dictionary site:

1) obsurd

The way stupid people spell absurd.

AIM- "Hey VPM, my grade on that spelling test was obsurd! i totally studied that shit."

Jeffrey,

Please stop posting in this thread. You're like a bad version of Max Gosey, circa 2005-2006.

Go away.

**smmokan** · 12-04-2008, 10:26 AM

Good god I hope so..... keep it coming.

**montanaskier** · 12-04-2008, 10:31 AM

7" at the Beav....not good for the racing boys but good for everything else. Coverage is improving everywhere. Have fun and be safe on your trip this weekend.
