I'm sure this is gonna be nothing compared to all you west coast bastards but when I traveled out to Alta last year I had 2 feet in the morning and then during lunch it snowed another foot. Soooooooooo fun

little less than boot high in NZ, but it was all open BC that was chairlift accessable, and we got their early just by chance so we got very early tracks

then over feb break in the east we got like a foot and a half while i was there, it was good for the east

knee high at Marble Mountain Newfoundland in pockets, maybe a little deeper in the trees near my apartment, which are pretty damn tight and intense.

Last season I was fortunate enough to rack in probably 40+ pow days. Spring break last year was incredible. It snowed almost every day for a week and almost every day I skied knee to thigh deep pow.

48 inches on top of 26 inches on top of 16 inches at hood this december EPIC some of the stuff was touched from the days before but if was the first day one of the lifts opened after these dumps and it was like REALLY deep, it was a little scary but totally epic and if you total those numbers its like 90 inches so it was defenitly scary and crrrazy it was like chest deep plus in places. 90 inches is to my head but when your moving.... yeah you get the point.
