Sick of winter

I don't know about you guys, but I am so ready for spring. For me, skiing is the only good thing about winter, and I haven't been able to get out as much as I wanted to this year due to school, work, etc. I'm just tired of being cold and wet all the time and having the weather be gray and shitty. It's been in the 50s here the last few days and it's been soo nice to go outside in jeans and a sweatshirt and not have to trudge through snow just to get to my car. Is anyone else looking forward to the warm weather and being outside as much as I am, or am I just losing it from being cooped up inside all winter?

University of MT campus in the spring is about a million times better than winter, it's fucking beautiful in the spring/fall, i cant get shit done in the winter, when it warms i get warms up i am much more motivated and like being at school.

i wish there could always be snow and cold weather at my mountain, but warm weather (like 65-75) everywhere else. i want to ski, but the shoveling, cold/wet feet, and everything else that comes with winter is getting to me.

For the first time ever I am stoked for summer. Mostly because I will be able to ski and do fun things again this summer! Plus I'm most likely rooming with one of my best friends and its going to be so much fun!

Weather here is so fucking schizophrenic. It's been 60-65 for two weeks + then we have a snow day today, probably tomorrow as well.

Northern California weather =WTF

i could not disagree more. I love winter. Not only skiing, but so much about it. I live in a town where when it snows, the stoke level is through the roof because everyone is so excited to get up and go skiing. This winter, for me, has gone by so quickly, i can't believe its already february 17th! don't get me wrong, i like summer too, but just the vibes, friends, skiing, stoke level, snow, and everything about winter wins me over.

I also don't like it when it gets all warm and shitty because its all wet and muddy and poopy everywhere and theres gravel/scoria on the road and it sucks.

don't get me wrong, i like warm weather and stuff, but nothing beats stepping outside your door on a cold bluebird day and knowing its gonna be a fucking awesome day of skiing.

Fuckin bitches ! Winter is the best season of all. Nothing like -30 and working at the airport out on the ramp. Just layer up and you won't even notice it. Being cold trumps being way to hot anytime. + skiing OBVIOUSLY

OP, I'm with you %110 percent. I am barely riding once a week now, and the cold is lame when you don't get that. It was like 70 degrees here a few days ago. Sooooo nice!
