I believe it, it was snowing there all day yesterday. As we left the T-Bar pub, it was getting thicker too. We noticed about 4inches that fell during the day...

Looking at that cut block it looks like they need another 2-3 ft, 4 would be best of settled snow.

This is the time they usually get it! First couple weeks of Jan are usually 40-70 CM weeks. Lets cross our fingers.

Anyone been into Castle lately? Hows the trail? How's the snow? Ski report doesn't have much to say....

Wouldn't expect much.

With zero snow and very windy and warm temps I would suspect it's set up like a rock. I was hoping to go snowboarding this weekend but that whole area hasn't got any snow since new years. I went the weekend after new years as well and it was already pounded/windswept hard (corbin area).

IMO, save you moonies and wait, or head to Golden like everybody else and play safe with the avy dangers.
