Predict the opening date for the 1st Utah resort
Since fall is dragging on a bit and the 10 day forecast doesn't seem to show much of anything, let's make some predictions. When will the first Utah resort open?

Seriously, fuck snow. I mean riding bikes is super sweet. Especially when I break chains, yentna has problems staying on her bike and altagirl can't keep less than a dozen rear derailleurs together in one season. Maybe I'll still get a chance to t-bone that bull moose I missed 2 weeks ago.

It sucks, but I think we will have a relatively late start this year.

Hopefully we get some snow soon. My mom takes her 1st grade class to the zoo every year at the end of October and for the past few years she has been rained and snowed on. She takes her class this week so hopefully we get some snow. I think it will be between 12 or 18th of November just because that is the week my wife and I move in to our house. So no skiing for me probably untill thanksgiving.
If ski companies didn't make new skis every year I wouldn't have to get new skis every year.

I think I'm over biking, and snow sucks. Why don't I sit on the couch for the next few weeks? That sounds appealing, so GNAR! I'm the core couch sitter.

This is the second photo this fall that I didin't even know was taken, thanks for the stoke. I'm ready to do some more of that; I'll be riding my bike until then."People blame me because these water mains break, but I ask you, if the

That was the best Trick or Treat I've ever had. I think this year we are going to get the trick (and I'm not talking about the good kind for $50 either).

I think it's the other way around. Normal is to have most of the Utah resorts open between mid-Nov and Thanksgiving. Last year was a fluke. That much snow before Halloween was supposedly only the second time in 75 years. I know I'm being a little optimistic to think that either Brighton or PC will open between the 7th and 13th, but I'm fairly comfortable that it could happen. Originally Posted by BlurredElevens

Sure, we might get screwed "this year" (2005). But don't forget, anything after December 31st is technically considered "next year" (2006).

Red Baron, are you a betting man? Originally Posted by Red Baron

Keep in mind that I work close to the international center, so it's very easy for me to collect on lunch bets that are placed from that local.
It wouldn't be the first time I won a Gyro, or two.

As far as I can recall, it was a "temporary" back-seat. Happens to the best of us. Originally Posted by Particle

Don't lie, you do it all the time!
