    It was nuking at the summit of Vail Pass and into Vail... it's not snowing in Avon and it wasn't snowing in Keystone or Copper.

    That is good. Going to Eiseman this upcoming weekend, so snow in that area would be nice.

    Jeesus Dave, you post a freakin' lot!

    Eiseman should be sweet this weekend! Careful out there though... if it snows a lot that is.

    Yeah, I've been watching it. I'm keeping my eye on the SW because I have this feeling it's gonna snow down there more than up here... but maybe not this storm. Always ready for a little road-trip action. Sounds like Steamboat might be the ticket!

    I'm stuck here at the office (unless there is some dawn patrol action happening) all week until Thursday night. Fuggin' cubicle. I need to get some blower. Recycled pow is fun and all, but I need a fix. STAT. Even my deep San Juan turns of late were mankyish for powder... fugg.

    I was busy buying a new truck this weekend. Spankin' new 4 door dodge diesel that we'll be roadtripping in the next week. If you or any others want to sack up, you've got a ride to where ever has the most snow, whether that is OR, WA, ID, MT, UT or WY.
    Nice!

    It's game on for me after next wednesday. I'll road trip anywhere. Actually thinking about it I NEED a good roadtrip. Been too long....
    Drive slow, homie.

    I do post, a shit ton. Borderlines on an addiction. But currently I am in the process of wasting time until my 1pm CST exam on the Ideas of the First Amendemnt

    stressing over the weather helps me not stress over the exam.

    Werd. Anything other than exams! Though I miss exams in a sick sort of way. Now I stress out about hostile clients, RFPs, deliverable deadlines and go-live dates.... lame.

    This Tahoe storm was definitely a pretty big let down. The West shore got some, but over here on East shore we got shit. Not enoguh snow anywhere to ski BC. We're still just biding our time waiting. We still haven't skied, sucks!!

    It sucked today, Blurred. Only 9-10" of fast snow with low avy hazard.

    Nothing groundbreaking, but fun none the less.

    As long as you weren't hitting the crusty old snow on the bottom, then I'm jealous.

    How do you feel about illegal aliens?

    They're the ones responsible for the lack of snow.

    8-10" of the speedy stuff, a groggy post night shift mind, and solitude. They go together well.

    Always good for a chuckle.

    The new acronym. RMTR. Riddle me this, retard.

    RMTR, how'd the HCAC perform at the holy fucking grail of Alta today?
