last year was really good. we got a few inches of snow then it rained and iced. then we got a few more inches. and that got hard. then we started getting a good amount powder. so most of the season the base was 2 inches of ice, then like 4 inches of hard pack, then a foot plus of powder, lets just say i wasn't hitting many rocks last season.  it was a good season..... :)

make sure you get permission first. you can get in a lot of trouble if you don't. did you ever read about the guys up at Big Jay. they really got in some trouble.
