Westcels coping and seething that the U.P. got two feet of snow overnight and troll is already open. We may not have elevation but at least we've got water.

To quote Evan Heath "fuck colorado"

PNW is cool though

March into April/Early May in Utah was all-time last year so yeah.

All I can say for the east is you guys open up first and you're the first to close.

Fair unless there is a good lake cycle in April/may. I was doing my climbing certs in may a couple years back and we got many inches in the last week of may which made it...difficult.

It sure is a good feeling to go skiing, get home and know youre going skiing again tomorrow. In October no less. Hoping that Bohemia and the UP as a whole get absolutely dumped on this season.

Well it is much easier to get man-made snow coverage on a 300ft hill with 12 runs… still pumped for them be open but let’s be real here.

I am in fact coping and seething, but mostly because of how inconsistent early seasons (and winters in general) are getting thanks to climate change. Feels like now you either get hit with that freak couple feet storm that opens everything in October, or you cry staring at a grass slope well into November or even later.

Also Colorado should have lifts spinning quite soon here:

Edit: my photo isn't uploading but Wolf Creek is projected to get ~23 in on Sunday night/ Monday and a little snow every day after that

It's snowing in the PNW atm. I want to make some turns but my leg is still fucked. Jealous of everyone getting after it.

Seeing some midwest clips on the gram. People already firing. Git it!!
