Funny, I heard the same...........

Just finished talking with Dad, said he was headed out to plow about 6 inches of new snow out of the driveway and said it was coming down hard as well. It's about friggin' time they got some.

Hotrod mentioned to me he had to unhook the drag at the chute to get up to the cabin last night (Fri.). 3ft had fallen at the cabin plus it was still snowing hard.

Well when you look anywhere all you are going to find is :dSNOW:d and lots of it!

Renshaw trail is scheduled to be groomed this evening, right from the parking lot so no more driving up the trail please! There is so much snow in there driving it won't be a whole lot of fun. Hot Rod is also planning to groom Bell tonight, talked to some guys who went up Bell yesterday and said they found 4' of fresh!

Looking forward to seeing everyone on the hills!

We had to plow Renshaw parking lot last nite and there was 16 inches or better to push. I plowed Lucille last nite as well, over 16 inches there. guys off Belle just now and had 2.5 feet of fresh all day. the valleys had more as the wind dumped more in them. waiting for our group from Renshaw to get home.
