Thanks. Hopefully it continues to Snow so our state doesn't go up in flames like my season did.
Looking at the models on the CAIC website now. The GFS 7 day precip forecast has around 2” of water for the Flat Tops/Park Range from midday Friday to Sunday afternoon.
Not sure how light the stuff will come down, but if this plays out, you could see 3 ft up there over the weekend. Booking hotel in the Yampa Valley in 3…2…1….
oh man ... could we get so lucky?

Looks like up north and down south should do fairly well this weekend. I-70 resorts should get some but it doesn't look like its going to be last week over again.
Not as much of a bummer as Wildman (heal quick, dude) but I bashed my wrist up enough on Sunday that I had to go in for X-rays. Nothing broken, but it's hard to plant a ski pole. I'm hoping it'll be soft enough this weekend that planting doesn't hurt.
^you don't NEED poles
Yeah no poles and 4 tall tees...you're all good
Hoping for a good dump in the super dry front range and summit this weekend.
5pm Avon some shit falling from the sky, must be flock of birds...maybe it will accumulate.
I am so sick of hard snow. VP cam looks promising, copper snow stake shows a few inches, maybe they salt it a little....
Had a nice front come through and lay down snow for like 30-40 min here in town. Didn't stick cause its been too warm but big flakes flying. Looks good up high still!
^^^Nice. Still touchy up there after last week's wind'n'snow?
Pretty wind blown. Things are settling but still areas that are sketchy. Bear lake and surrounding area has the best coverage right now. They found the lost hiker. Pretty weird story but had to scale back search efforts due to conditions being sketchy.
Henry's butthurt buffet?
^^^sitter all weekend....wanna ski?/drink?
