    What up with the snow??

    You guys gettin any? We haven't seen a flake in over 2 weeks. Afternoons are hitting 50's. Ski area from the Gondola (mid mt) down is a few manmade strips. "The icy ribbon of death" Snow making temps are about 6-8 hrs. A few weeks ago I thought we wouldn't see the ground until April/May. As of today, all our valleys are completely void of snow. Might need to make a trip up to Montana for some fresh.
    Wah!

    Not much of the white stuff here in SLC either. Maybe it'll be another dry year...?

    Yay!! Finally getting some snow!! It sucked watching Targhee and Jackson reap all the storms while we had 50 deg every afternoon. Time to ski more than 3 strips of snow.
    Yeah Baby!!

    What up with the snow??

    Was hiking Mt. Olympus today and while near the top it snowed about 5 inches in an hour.

    Hopefully we can keep on getting more!

    Was at 10,000 ft today on Humphrey's looking down at Snowbowl.... Kinda sad when you have to look up on the highest mountain on Arizona from the summit of the ski lift to see snow in December

    Woo Hoo!! Things have changed radically!! We have gone from a few runs to almost completely open. Three straight days of new terrain, combined with double digit snow days. Thrashed legs, but.... Who's complainin!!!
