Yeah, ain't lookin' too good. Glad I'm working!! Really tic me off if you guys were blasting away on a sunny 20 degree day.

Speaking of that, Saturday was that day.

if it snows up on the hill later this week, or over the weekend, Monday the 22nd could work for me/us.

Might have last minute X-mas shopping and preps to do. We'll stay in contact here. Maybe by then my old, wimpy muscles won't be sore anymore. Forgot just how much this sport beats you up.

Lots off cool up grades I see, myself I've pretty much stuck woth stock other than the 1 1/2 inch paddle track and an slp exhaust on mine. Which of course I noticed took away from the top end as Cheryl seems to have the edge at WOT. But I make up for it in the turns and rough stuff

Hey Bird if yoiu changed your Avitar we would have a true sleddin forum going here at least until Pete and Dave chime in I know there out there somewhere in cyber world lurking in keep track of us.

that snow I mentioned is happening tonight!

we might be in for Thursday after all!

braaaap braaaaaap!


EDIT: nope...it's toast on the hill

peruse some of these threads and the latest posts by the boys who make it happen (when Mother Nature allows it that is!)

more blowdowns and more water than the week before last. Near total loss of cover in many places. What a mess.
Google earth BC and follow the roads and trails out from there...incredible clarity and LOTS OF WATER!
It'll take a couple of weeks of cold and snow (hopefully cold first) to put it right.

Oh well...I needed to re-polish my tunnel anyway...

Here's a better website for snow depths and it's updated daily. I use it just about everytime I get ready to hit the trails. It only gives you the snow depths and not trail conditions so for that I hit a couple of other sites

Polish the tunnel??? You must be bored

yea I'm aware of the NOAA stats online.

they are usually a day or two behind which can be a lifetime in these parts where the weather changes so quickly

for trail conditions I get with the guys who run the groomers and others who live up there. They are online most everyday on any one or more forums with that day's on-the-snow reporting...just gotta know where to find 'em.

and the SnoPals website...

I'm not the only one with such a problem.

Not trying to rub it in toooo much but we just got 12 inches of the that sweet white fluffy stuff. Took the sleds out for there first run of the year With any luck it'll be headin your way....Hope you all enjoy

Twin Vipers

thanks.
Merry Christmas to you too!

it'll start here by 7am. 8-10" here tomorrow and "heavy snow" in the afternoon...and that's 15 mi. north of the "snowbelt" off the lake.
tomorrow night, lake effect sets up and "significant accumulations" are predicted, which on the hill usually gets measured in feet.
following some nice single digit cold, and remaining cold for days...the season is in!!
35 mph winds with 10* cold tomorrow and heavy snow
yeehaaa!

Your welcomed and as an added gift I hope yo get the extras their predicting for tonight another 3-6.
