About 6" at the LL pow cam. Crazy spring.

The hybrid crosstrek gets a friggin' whopping 10% better fuel economy than the non-hybrid version. Still worth it?

I'm surprised you're so excited about your Lo5s. I'm about to pull the bindings and put them on some W99s, in good conditions they're fine but on tired legs in manky snow they're miserable. Given...

No shit. I used to run past a 24 hour fitness several times a week, even with *perfect* weather I could see people grinding out the miles on a dreadmill. Mind boggling. Buddy leaving an $11k bike...

It's still ski season.

The Crosstrek hybrid is a joke, only 10% better fuel economy than the normal version. Should've just made it a turbo diesel.

Not a softshell material.

I suppose on the bright side, anything that will go naturally for the rest of the season seems pretty likely to do it this week while I'm stuck in the office. Looking like shoes will the name of the...

If your wheels are almost 28" then you're on some sort of circus bike.

You mean 26.99?

8" on the pow cam at Loveland this morning...

^ I thought that L1 was not enough information, too slowly.

I also thought that the L2 I took was a bit slow and weak on information, and it was four ten hour days. I also read and enjoyed 3/4 of...

^ GFS is showing >4" of precip for most of the state by Friday night. :fmicon:

That's part of what makes this situation so hard. They weren't idiots, a bunch of good people died, and we may never understand why they went where they did.

The path in question has not yet slid.

I did (though it was more of an accusatory tone), he gave a not terribly satisfying response (just doing his job), I don't particularly care to pursue it further. There's a valuable message and...

I was taking issue with insulting the deceased for poor route-selection through an avy runout zone and then passing through an avy path himself.

All week, Lou's been denigrating the experience level and skill of the victims - fine, that's just Lou, and mistakes were obviously made (otherwise we wouldn't have five dead backcountry tourers from...

There certainly is a ton to be learned here. Lou's doing good work, he's also being a self-righteous stone-thrower.

Probably people going to check out the avalanche site...like he did.

I'll need a pair for after I'm tired of beatering on the mono (so...2 runs, maybe).

I went for a small ride on a thin, relatively low-angle slab a couple years ago. Pretty inconsequential but still scared the hell out of me because it was in a situation I'd been in before and will...

South Platte river basin average peak is 4/28. After the numbers from this storm are in we'll be within a couple percent of normal peak for the SPRB. NPRB was at 95% of normal peak yesterday. Overall...

I bet the official report will answer this question. Consider skipping the holier-than-thou speculating until we better know what happened.



You keep repeating this as if it were relevant to...

Shut the fuck up rog.

Winter 13/14 is cancelled.

FMTT :(

Needs to be a degree slacker in the HA. I'm too e-rad to go steeper than 68*.

I've been drooling over the idea of a titanium Honzo, which I'm pretty sure doesn't exist. Which is good, because I need to be not spending money on bikes right now.

Please tell me you're grossly, absurdly exaggerating. An inch of dust...heartbreaking.

Such a shame that it's never going to snow again, ever.

Loveland had plenty of blower, and a lot of wind-affect, but it all came down cold and dry up there.

Wow. Going skiing. Gratz nailed this one.

NOAA saying 2-4" for Loveland on Saturday night, Gratz saying 6-12". Quite the spread, come on high-end!

I feel like the PDG (and by association the Evo) rating is too low. Don't know where it should be but down with a floppy old F1 seems wrong.

From the master plan: "the east facing slopes do provide decent snow retention and also have good sun
exposure, particularly in the afternoons"

What?

I'm digging Loveland's 3" report even though you can clearly see the 3" line through the top of the meniscus.

Snowing again (lightly) in Lakewood. NOAA saying a couple more inches through the day. 9News in full meltdown snowpocalypse mode still.

ffffffffzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

But at least the streets are icy here.

I've always been smart enough to avoid grocery stores before storms, but really needed leeks for some soup.

I went to the grocery store for some veggies for dinner after work, the scene was best described as "total fucking shitshow."

Latest NOAA BOU forecast discussion does not give me a happy feeling in my pants.

Wake up early, check the reports and updated forecasts, and make a game-time decision.

The two pages of posts criticizing Loveland's avalanche mitigation work.

If anyone is up at Highlands soon, a photo of Pyramid would be super-appreciated. Before the storm, after, whatever.

I've got a pair and I'm warming up to them. Not enough time to give a definitive review but after a few days, I at least don't hate them.

awwwww yeahhhh

That's the one. I don't get why it so consistently overpredicts precipitation so much. It's embarassing to have such a lame model representing our country.

The GFS is showing the next week bringing enough water to end the drought.

Hahahahahahaha. :(
