  1. Nice shots. Were you able to ski the East Wall at A-Bay? Love those Mary Jane trees. Only rivaled by the aspens off the Sundown lift at Steamboat IMO (at least in CO). I think Copper has the best lift layout of any of the resorts around here. I did get up to Eldora today. Talked to a patroller and he said the runs looked like a "battlefield" yesterday with all of the carnage. Today featured some of the tallest bumps I've seen in years. They were really soft though. Had the trees to myself and they were deep. Can't complain.
  2. Hope it's OK to post Rocky Mountain updates here (the Mountain West forum is dead). Eldora got 46" from this storm we just had, their largest total since 2003. They were closed yesterday and part of today. Buddy sent me this picture from the road in Nederland - the plow couldn't handle the snow. Not sure if I'll actually try to get out tomorrow - the reports I've heard say that this is basically cement (who am I kidding though, of course I'll get out).
  3. 22" from this storm here in Boulder. I was living in Richmond during 09/10 and it really stung to see the insane snow totals just an hour or two north (although Jan 2016 helped a little). I think I can finally say I'm content ~15 years later now that I have experienced three 20"+ events in 5 years along with the all-time snowiest winter in Boulder. This is truly a sick hobby All that said, there is something magical about a good MA snowstorm. I miss it.
  4. Storm total in Boulder is 21.9", making this the 12th largest event of all-time. This is now the third 20"+ event since 2019. Eldora received 46", their highest total since at least 2003.
  5. Eldora reporting nearly 4 feet from this event, their highest total since 2003. They'll be closed again tomorrow. Might try to get up there Saturday (along with everyone else in Boulder).
  6. Yeah, this very well could be the longest duration of steady snow I've ever seen IMBY. Too bad so much was lost to rain and sun angle, otherwise it might have been an all-timer here.
  7. Currently at hour 21 of snow here in Boulder with about 15" total. It's basically been 32-33 the entire storm. Still hoping to crack 20"!
  8. The official total in Boulder at 7am was 8.9". The models are suggesting another 6-12" for me so we'll see what happens. Would be fun to break 20!
  9. I have around 8-9" in North Boulder at the moment. Hoping the back end comes through.
  10. QPF totals: 18z NAM Boulder: 3.59" Denver: 2.65" 18z GFS Boulder: 3.87" Denver: 2.56" Kuchera is wild for me...40" on the NAM and 38" on the GFS. Fun to look at, if nothing else.
  11. 12z GFS gives me over 3.6" of qpf, mostly snow. NAM is about 3.2" qpf. Pretty wild!
