Has anyone else just had a plain terrible winter? I have skied a lot but it has just not snowed and been incredibly warm all winter long. Don't get me wrong, its still great but this winter is below average.

i don't know what you're talking about, where do you live, cause the pacific northwest is amazing this year after a year that set records for terribleness last year.

It hasn't been the prettiest winter here in Ontario, but the skiing's been just fine. There has always been a base no matter what hill I'm at and I really can't complain, it's like calling last chair, as soon as I bitch about the weather, It'll be spring....

yeah, my season has kinda sucked. Half my trips get cancelled, I miss the ONLY good storm that gives us a good amount of snow. All I have skied this year is decent to shitty parks. If I wasn't going to colorado thursday, I'd kill myself.
