Yes please!

LOL. If you can find me the Cliffs Notes, I'm in. We can start the Coos County Book Club.

Ayahuasca kinda night?

If I were to believe those maps I’d be using the gondola towers as a snow stake

This last storm, while it may have added significant density to the pack, has really changed the conditions on the mountain. Anything not groomed today was just outright awful - essentially cement. We definitely need some pow. On a funny note, the deck in front of my dining room window is unshoveled and my dog can now walk on the snowpack without sinking in, so when she goes by the window she looks the size of a horse lol.

2.5" of pure sleet here and currently pelting. Not even sure it ever really snowed! Should be great to cover up the skied off patches in the glades though...

In a normal rear, sounds good. This year, I'd go with half of that for us lol. Which i still wouldn't complain about.

-10 now. Not a breath of wind

A brisk -8/-22 here. First tracks anyone?

I wonder how many times we've crossed paths without knowing lol!

Great shot. I was really looking forward to some sun while skiing and the moment I got out it started snowing. I'm cursed lol

We are practically snow starved. What is this Maryland or something???

It's actually snowing quite nicely at the moment. Super fluffy stuff so it stacks easily. I do remember saying "don't count on a sunny day on a NW wind" yesterday

Was just entering the 2" from yesterday on the snow table, and notice how much shaft we've been getting comparatively speaking. It was usually "neck and neck" between JSpin and I on past years - as I've noted before, with us overperforming on coastals and the Mansfield area overperforming in uplsope. This year the upslope has been decent - but of course here in the valley never at those levels - while coastals have pretty much shafted us since October, so we're quite a bit behind. No complaints, it's been a nice winter with very consistent snowcover with the exception of (of course) the Xmas period, and skiing has been awesome and far better than last year. Nevertheless, it's interesting to notice! This is also the time of the year when (blasphemy) I start looking forward to Spring, and Spring is NOWHERE in sight.

Same here. Get those glades nice and sparkly

Yes it's on the medium steep side. One small section of it is a double black - but pretty tame for that label. Boundary glades on West Mountain and some of those off the 2 Miles Home ridge on the Rosebrook side are the gnarliest. As a next step my favorites are West Glade and the glades off of Joseph's Run and Avalon on West Mountain. The one after Black forest is also very nice, just avoid the ridge trail which has a steel section that never has any snow on it because it gets blown off immediately and don't get on Roz at the end which is narrow and steep.

Glad you enjoyed! It's such a great intro to glades. My kids have been doing John Graves glade on West Mountain. They're getting better than me lol

Wait had your snow changed color since falling the day before yesterday??? I'm skeptical of clear weather for the next 2 days with "brisk" NW wind. That's always a red flag in the forecast...

Chilly 0F already

Agree. Once you get to this point I don’t even really care HOW MUCH is falling, nearly as much as the simple fact that it’s falling

Really good snow here too now. I mean, not Jersey good, but good

Lol I hadn’t really looked at the numbers, but yes it seems like they have a while to go

Average depth over the season would show a much more complete pictures. Add standard deviations and you’d really get a different story!

Lol just said the same

It’s really not that crazy, it’s climatology.
