If this storm drops anything less than 8" or more than 12" per day at rates of no more than 1.5" per hour of between 8.75% and 10.15% density snow, I'm not skiing...
It had better be blue bird @ 31* with wind of not more that 5 mph from the SW too when it clears.

Shit man, if you're that worried, mabe you should move your desk to the a difference aspect of the office and make sure your monitor is out any potential deposition zones. Originally Posted by mmcpheet

It's not as good as leaving town, but I think I'm probably going to have to work for the next 16 days straight.
I'll go wash the car now, anyway.
Not to jinx it, but anyone thinking about looping a daytrip to Alpine on Saturday? That's the only day I might escape work. I'll send an e-mail out to snowpals if not.

Just saying...Saturday, 12/5 to Alpine Meadows has been switched to Northstar.
- Though we love Alpine, Northstar will have 6+ chairs open, compared to 2 at Alpine, with more terrain to ski & ride on.
Now, No-stars is my least favorite resort, but it does make sense to go there when conditions suit (storms/winds/wrod)
It's not like you're going to be going off-piste at AM, after all.
...Remember, those who think Global Warming is Fake, also think that Adam & Eve were Real...

I'll be driving up with the kids on Friday, leaving the bay area in time for dinner etc. in Truckee. Should we make it family-friendly?

Are there people locked into the Skibus? I can drive my 2WD POS to Alpine from the yay area if the weather is decent. Don't wanna burn through a pile of gas just to drag my ass up there, but if the car's full up, I'd do it. Originally Posted by TurxSki

Planning a one day roundtrip on Saturday, but nothing can justify paying to go to N*. I'd rather pay Arco.
Drop me a PM if you're interested to avoid further jonging up of this thread.

Hey just wanted to alert everyone on the 1-day Avy Avoidance & Awareness class at LTCC (1/9/10).
Just registered - with fees it was $12.50 (I <3 LTCC!) Figured it would be a good refresher along with rereading the Bruce Temper book. Registration for new students is tomorrow morning at 7am - good luck to all those trying to get in on AIARE Level I classes!

My whole desk is a deposition zone of paperwork, data cartridges, and equipment; the avy advisory rarely drops below considerable with natural sluffs occurring regularly throughout the day. Originally Posted by SCUTSKI

Hoping our meteorologists are right, they are putting the 10 day at 7+" of precip with snow lines starting 5500 ending 7000. That's upside down snowpack folks, so you all might just want to stay home.

Kirkwood hiking?
I realize I'm the newbe here, but I've been sking at the wood for a while now. I'll be going up this weekend, I noticed some of you were doing some hiking recently. I hear only 5 will be running, is there much worth hiking to? Thunder Saddle, or possibly Palisades?

A skin up buckboard is your best bet. Safe and thick with snow. Originally Posted by rlewis

They both say AIARE level I. I am assuming I am missing something??"Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will..."
