Yep. Just started a little while ago at my house. Looks like snow at the top of the peaks only :wah:

This really sucks after a great week of snow last week.

They made some bad choices, still a tragedy nonetheless.

I was on the mountain doing a certification test. It was snowing at the base in the morning, raining mid day, and sleeting by the end of the day. But the top was super nice. It was great to feel powder again. Next week looks colder so hopefully we get dumped on for 4 days straight.

His special "I'm not for everyone" is hilarious. But it is properly titled. He comes up with some weird stuff.

Most of his jokes are like this

Awesome. I was really getting close to losing hope. Temps are still pretty warm, so idk if I'll get any snow at my house... but the mountains need every millimeter we can get.

I remember someone asked about in-helmet bluetooth headphones.... I just got an email for 50% off these. I have used them for 2 seasons, they work great.

Sale ends at midnight. Code is ALTAFLASH.
