yes... it seems as though it is that time of year my children! snow has fallen at stevens pass today, thus inspiring the 06/07 snow watch thread. some may wonder why now and not earlier. well you see, its all about patients young ones. i knew if i had posted it back in the begining of october like last year hearts would be broken.

He is an Aeronuetical Enginer, which means he sits up in plains all day drawing graphs and doing complicated equations for fun and a shit load of money, so much money infact that crystal on wensday is on him! but only if I go.

I was at snoqualmie last night, there was about 2 feet in the Alpental parking lot, good times.

I hiked way up Silver Fir and tried to ski down, but my skis had no wax, and the snow was way too sticky. But near the bottom there was a little bitty jump someone had made, so I was doing 3's off that, hahahahaha.

Oh, and I got some sick lines in down the steep slope towards the parking lot from the Silver Fir chair. SICK lines.

yeah i was lookin at that too and it worried me. but on the other hand, if we were to get a tad rain on wednsday night, then have the snow levels drop again with more precip, i would be the happiest person alive.

Sooooo, yeah lame. Crystal moved the opening to Thursday. Snow level 7500 feet wednesday?! wtf? But JUST wednesday? Its low on Tuesday and Thursday. So its going to pour rain all day Wednesday, so Thursday will be all wet and slushly... great.

Still, I'll still go.

You get a F for Fix-your-fucking-word-choice! Dont tell me you've forgotten all that good grammar now that you've escaped higher education...

Actually, Thursday is a much better day for me to skip. We should get some fresh pow up there wed. night and throughout the day, so it wont be that bad. Kevin, Sean, you wanna meet up and show these kids the power of LSKP (except we dont have Chris, fuck!)?

Um, well lets see..

First, I'm an engineer, so I realize grammar is POINTLESS in life. Second, my sentance, although annoying, was still grammatically correct in every way.

Third, there will be no powder on Thursday, as its going to be pissing rain on Wednesday. And to add to that, if there were hypothetically powder, there would be many rocks underneath, and so I won't be bringing my powder skis.

And fourth, it looks like we may go to Baker on friday instead.

All i can say is that all the places should have their cats out packing down the snow today before the rains come. that way the rains will have less effect.
