Coming back from Sacramento on 80. Heading thru SLC today and hopefully they will open 80 in Wyoming by the time we get there. Donner Pass:

The Bermuda is coming back to life finally, which is a sight for sore eyes after being dormant for 4 months.

Sneaky snowstorm today. Mountains 7-14” forecasted. Boulder was just supposed to be rain. It’s wet heavy snow. I’m gonna be an inside cat today.

Holy shit and the road is still closed.

I notice this as well. It's almost as if they contracted with one manufacturer for their equipment. Even the big pile of ground guns stashed near the sunbowl had the new heads. When I made snow for Camelback in the early 2000s we had a ridiculous multitude of different types of guns.

We were checking out the snow guns around Cameltoe on Sunday, WJW! Every run we went down looked like brand new guns and even a battalion of new sled guns to put in strategic locations. The gun heads looked like they had 3 different sets of nozzles, perhaps they can pick which ones to use based on conditions? I think they were these: https://www.hkdsnowmakers.com/products/impulse/ Hopefully the announcement to upgrade Blue's snowmaking will include a bunch of those guns and automate the remaining trails to do away with the manual guns, so the entire mountain can fire up at the flick of a switch.

Final day in Aspen. Skied Buttermilk in the AM, and Snowmass in the afternoon. Sun was out, temps were warm, and it was empty.
