Sorry to report, this storm is going to be a bust for I-70 corridor. Too warm. Summit county will do better. Vail is going to get pissed on by Auburn again.

The ski season at Vail and SS has been cancelled. Sorry!

SS?

Too many Debby downers on this page. Nuking at Loveland Pass — just got several laps in before they spun the lifts; great base building snow should be a great weekend!

Careful in there. During the March 03 whopper storm those areas avalanched, along with areas on the I-70 frontage road. I was on CAIC road patrol at the time, and these where the first time we ever recorded avalanches in Mount Vernon canyon.

I took some runs in Mathews/Winters park a few years ago just after a big upslope. Kinda OK, but def rocks in there.

**rocca** · 11-17-2017, 03:22 PM

Green Mountain can ski pretty well after the right storm too. Pretty grassy and low angle.

Saw a few guys skiing White Ranch back in 2012, there was 30" of new up there!

Colder temps here; hope this storm gets stuck here now.

Yup, Halsted ain't lying. There were also slides along I-70 on the S side of Douglas Mtn. between Dumont and Georgetown, and a slide on Republican that almost took out the Georgetown trailer park. Some debris is still visible to your right as you drive by the exit at 55 in the left lane.

I LOVE that car!!

I'm packed for west Denver to A Basin in the a.m. An early enough start should handle the I70 issue, but concerned there may be no work-around for the volume at the basin. Saturday + Fresh + Tday break week + other resorts "open" but with no terrain = lift lines might be so long I'll wonder why I bothered....what say you?

Unsure if you are an alias or actually enough of a JONG to defend your retarded worrying about Saturday lift lines when there are 3 runs open... yea... you must be an alias because nobody is that dumb... except all the JONGs driving up to stand in the A-basin lift line tomorrow.

**The SnowShow** · 11-17-2017, 11:02 PM

ABasin snow cam looks $$$. Bet they'll open Pali and you'll have first tracks 🤜

The Professor slid into the parking lot. They're going to be closed until at least March maybe even April cleaning up. Stay home for sure.

My Snow Season Outlook for 17/18. Doesn't look too bad for Colorado this season....

Keep your SPAM quackery the fuck out of here. Long range weather forecasting is right up there with alchemy, as far as legitimate scientific pursuits are concerned.
