Anyone out there looking for some snow? Just imagine what you could make! Jumps, Jibs, your imagination is the limit! Seems like most people complain about lack of snow in the summer when i seem to have the opposite problem. Some skiers sit at home all summer and complain about the heat, when I am stuck shoveling this shit 40+ hours a week. Skiing in Mammoth Oct/Nov - July is good fun , but when bike season comes around, snow becomes a chore. Shoveling through this in August sucks!

So does anyone want some free snow?
Bring a shovel and you can have all you need!

This is one of 3 snowbanks I shoveled through today. This pic dos not look to bad because that is about 10 minutes after we started, but we ended up digging that trench 7+ feet deep all the way through it (in about 4-5 hours). If you think this is bad, just imagine all the snowbanks we have been shoveling in the forests that are all still ice blocks because of lack of sun.

So yes, I am bitching about this, but I have been on this site about 10.5 years so I figure I can bitch to all the the "NEW"schoolers....

But the free snow offer still stands to anyone who wants some.

I think he knows that, as do I. I do have the same question though. Is it to make a level pathway through the area or something?

Why don't people just go to their local ice rink and get the zamboni <-(Spelling?) scrapings. That's what im using for my backyard setup.

You do that nearer to the fall its like 90 degrees out now. But yeah, if you get it right after the snow should be fine.
