TR: Got pow? BAKER 11/2/05

**powdherb** · 11-03-2005, 01:08 AM

Went up to baker today, left bellingham at like 1230. Upon arrival, sickness was unavoidable. There is at least 4-6 feet of snow up on top of pan dome. Rather heavy for a utah boy, but impressive nontheless.

WOOOOOOT WOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are gonna have a WINTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**Bodhi** · 11-03-2005, 09:58 AM

Nice way to get out there in the heavies...

Still, I know last year was miserable up there, and we got more than our share of the goodies down south (I felt bad for you folk). But that was last year, do not be so selfish this season--share a little, dammit.

When you get the snow in the PacNW, we get squat in SoCal...north storm tracks good for you, bad for us. So stop taking all the snow, share a little, mang.

peace,
D.

**iskibc** · 11-03-2005, 10:28 AM

Nice! Hope some of that comes our way.

**grizzle6** · 11-03-2005, 10:32 AM

Now I know what everybody who wasn't a Utard felt like last year.

And I don't like it one bit.

**shera** · 11-03-2005, 10:37 AM

In other news, this storm is providing nice 6 foot rollers in Haro Strait. Andrews Bay reef looks like a mini Cortez Bank. I'm going to go check out Grrrr's old local beach!
