Get on some wide skis and go fast and use a lot of power in your turns and you should be just fine getting through the mashed potatoes..in a typical warmer ski season you're gonna encounter spring conditions a lot so might as well work on your mashed potato skiing. Get forward and power through them.

Please don't remind me.

At least the temps don't appear to be low enough for the snow to set up tonight and it looks like it's going to be sunny and warm tomorrow, so hopefully it'll be spring conditions.
Bring your bikini!

Yes
The ski club that Slim Bob belongs to is running a trip to some hole in Wyoming the first week of March, so I'm going along with them.

 

What dates? I’ll be skiing there 1-3rd.

Felt good to get on the XC skis again!....Snow was pretty easy to break trail through....Could get a nice kick/glide once I looped around to my tracks....

A few of my facebook weather outlets are looking at thurs/fri now as possible snow.  It could also monsoon on us again.  

As a realist, i tend not to hope for things that wont happen to come true.  I hope it snows.  We need something good to come our way here.  Maybe it means the forecast will trend colder overall sooner, so they can get back to work on Razors.

Whats to worry about we have top to bottom skiing and riding.  There’s a good chance resorts will not get to 100% this season sure.  Depends what happens in a few weeks.  

This week doesn’t look good. Conditions were good today at frost. Still lots of unopen trails.

Ahhh well we’ve had five weeks of skiing so far this season. I truly believe we’ll have a season with no local skiing in our lifetime. 

 

This isnt as bad if a start as three seasons ago.  That’s when JF was actually open over Xmas week but just one top to bottom and Blue was only open two days in December and closed until I believe January 8th...xmas week of 2011 was also very limited terrain.

You need to watch videos like this in anticipation of a triple polar vortex gaining energy in Canadia

 

 

Nephew in the Marines just got transferred to Japan.  I believe a visit is in order.

Precipitation just started falling here with a weird mix of heavy rain with giant snowflakes mixed in. WTF is going on this year???

Heavy wintry mix of sleet and snow just ended here.

At this point I'm just happy with cold air.

However, the new modeling (FV3) that wasn't out earlier, has it hitting, which of course will happen because I have to go to Chicago that day...
