^^ Looks like a NOAA point forecast? What location? Leadville area isn't predicting that promising so far, but if click up around Massive and towards Indy Pass it looks good.

Is there a contingency plan in place if you miss the final, or will the prof just give you an F? Having to take a whole class over again would suck more than missing one powder day IMO. I'd email the prof and see if he will let you take it later in the week if weather shuts down the roads.
As a teacher, I'm pretty flexible with anything as long as the student comes to me and makes a plan to get the work done.

I'm trying to get to the 'Boat at least one day, maybe Sunday or Monday. Still looking for an extra comp for a friend, so it might not work out. I'll probably be at Vail/BC at some point. I have a number for you, but I think you might have sent me a new number I didn't save.
Flail is not in my plans this weekend. I'm gonna camp outside of Eiseman and hope you let me in.

Hey Bub
That's tempting to use one of my highlands days, but I hear it's pretty thin up there so far, so not sure if I want to make the trek over yet. I'm using one day for sure over xmas, so need to make sure to get good use out of the other three.
It's been snowing here the last couple hours, maybe an inch or two on the ground already. Kinda let up a bit at the moment, but the mountains are sacked in.
