It is currently puking snow in Bozeman, and Bridger is going to open up their retardedly sick new lift today (weather permitting).

Here's the latest text to accompany the monsters

December 19th, 2008

THREE MORE STORMS BETWEEN TODAY AND CHRISTMAS TO ASSURE KNEE TO HIP DEEP POWDERâ€¦

FRIDAY NIGHT STORM â€“ A quick mover, the northern Green mountains will be seeing 3 to 6 inches with heaviest part of the storm arriving late this afternoon until about midnight when the northern fringe of this storm system exits. All snow â€“ it wil be very fluffy and near Snowbird Alta type quality. Winds should not be that strong as in other storms as a steady northerly bleed of arctic air oozes out of Canada. Thereâ€™s a chance for lesser amounts than forecast if to much dry air becomes entrained across far northern Vermont, but I think the Jay Machine will prevail. As storms go â€“ this will be the baby of the next three.

SUNDAY-MONDAY STORM â€“ Two parts to this monster, which will be tricky in other areas of Vermont to forecast for but not Jay Peak. First part warm air advection will be the main lifting component dropping around 7 to 14â€ Sunday afternoon and night. As the low pressure jumps onto the coast and reconsolidates in the Gulf of Maine, a term we use in weather called â€œbombogensisâ€ will take place causing explosive deepening and intensification of the low pressure system as it departs toward the Canadian Maritimes. A dry slot where snow may become light for a short periods of time Sunday night will be followed by and impressive deformation zone or wrap-around. The â€œWRAPâ€ could kill Jay Peak with impressive snowfall rates along with enhanced up sloping produce more by the terrain on the back side of the system into the day Monday. White-out blizzard like conditions may also result if current modeling is correct. Thus another 6 to 12 inches on the back side can be expected resulting in the biggest dump of the season.

Weatherman just came on and said tonight's storm has spread out and slowed. Northern VT should get over 10" into tomorrow. That's on top of the 14" we got in the last 3 days:)

Bridger opened their new chairlift today. It was awesome. I ended up getting first tracks down two different spots, one of which involved a 100-150' straightline with a rock wall two feet from my shoulder. The new terrain is really, really sick, and once we get some more snow some big lines are going to go down!

This is our new south boundary (end of last year):

We got HAMMERED here at K. WAY more than forecasted. 6-10 was forecasted, when I left the mountain at 10:30 it was still dumping and there was well over a foot of the fluffiest blower powder I have ever seen.

I'm calling 15"+ for the morning ski report.

Monday will be interesting as the timing of this thing is putting at more of a daytime sunday storm, but we will see how it pans out.

Yeah, they biffed the storm track on this beast. It's too bad I have to learn how to see tickets tomorrow instead of shredding.

I'll just need to be ready to kill it Monday morning for the bigger storm.

that's like saying, "i'm either getting an M3 or an Enzo." the Evo's still a pretty functional car... the GT-R's a full-on supercar- it's got faster lap times than GT2s and Gallardos. you had me laughing out loud for a second in Starbucks, which made me look like an idiot. thanks. the price difference is about $40,000... sorry, i just thought this was hilarious.

STOKED that LVSSR has almost 5' of snow already! this means i'm doing some hiking once my bootz get here, which means i have a raging boner... also embarassing in Starbucks.

I'm home, skiing deep powder with my friends on kick ass ON3Ps, eating my mothers home cooking, and sleeping in my own bed. Most people aren't skiing because it's -17 plus windchill, so it has stayed untracked for days. Does it get better than this? Nope.

Stoked on life. This is what it's meant to be.
