sorry to intrude as a Euro, but shouldn't it be "winter awakens"?
It's a war of the mind and we're armed to the teeth.

Pumped to be stoked and part of this thread! Re-training for midlife career shift wraps up in 1.5 weeks, hoping to be out there ruining skis just as soon as the new schedule starts up.... Hope to see you all out hiking and maybe a few days at the hwy 2 resort! Thanks for a more promising thread title this time around.....

This, in conjunction with Auvgeeks link, seems to provide the most accurate outlook (with my limited knowledge and skills). I find spotwx to be more accurate than mountain forecast; downside is that you have to extrapolate to elevations you will be at (it provides only one elevation, and that may or may not apply to where you are going)."...if you're not doing a double flip cork something, skiing spines in Haines, or doing double flip cork somethings off spines in Haines, you're pretty much just gaping."
