i love how i left both upstate new york, and the u.p. of Michigan to go west where the big snow is, and both places have much more snow than the tahoe basin.

HMMMM! this looks promising!!! Hope it doesn't wimp out!!

RAINed today. I mean really rained! :) Stupid pineapple express, Hawaii can keep their storms for all I care! haha

2nd rainiest day in recorded history in Seattle, 10 inches on the coast and 6 inches at Crystal! Pinapple Express sucks!

Ours today would be best described as sleet, bordering on rain, wet foggy, turn the base to cement, why I left Vancouver in the 70's................. a genuine North Shore mountain winter's day.

Hey hey Mike! Come on, its not that bad over here in Vancouver!

Ok, today was terrible for BC skiing but at least we got good snow on the weekend and this terror will end by tomorrow afternoon. I skied and actually got some telemark turns on my xc skis in Vancouver city yesterday!

But I heard it was snowing today in Whistler Valley which doesn't make any sense to me at all..

i hope tahoe picks up as much snow as that forecast predicted! Most forecasts show 2-4 inches for 2 days :(. But its better than nothin.

It's supposed to get better here on Tuesday night when it might snow.

¡¡¡El Niño está enojado!!!

Not to brag but I haven't been online much because Okemo has been positively spectacular. Over 20" natural in the last two week and their snowmaking has been really cranking. I have 15 days on snow and I had class today so I didn't go today but I expect to have 19 days by Friday! They have all areas of the moun tain open with the exception of the real estate access lift morning star triple and Jackson Gore is phenomenal!!

Here are some pictures of the recent snow storm we got here in summit county.

Wow! We're gonna have a lot to shovel off of our deck when we go up to Breck next week.....

We shoveled the decks at Badger today. Don't have enough yet to open! :(

I've been shoveling constantly most of the weekend, we received a total of about 2 1/2 feet from this last system at the base of peak 8.

Not fair, it's sunny and cold here.
