Shit was fucked up this morning but about 1130 shit cleared up and it was pretty fun. I didn't wait longer than 5 or 10 mins in a life line.

i would recommend at least two complimentary colored tee's probably xl tall if not larger...and maybe a hoodie just in case...let's be honest, cotton is all the rage nowadays in the outerwear game anyways...

Did a-basin really only get 7" of snow from that whole storm series??? (thats what the site said)

Have they changed the park lately, or is it still in the little fenced all smashed together?

Any help would be great, otherwise denver looks more promising for some skiing.

Its called Ruby Hill.  They never opened it last year, so we'll see if they do it this year.  Since we got so much snow recently, they might be able to, but I would expect to see it later in the winter, if at all.
