February 5, 2009...
To my sking friends and partners, to my boon buddies that I share the downhill passion with, I invite you to participate in this blog to chronicle this winter, and those to come. I've no idea how this works out long term, but it's supposed to last for a long time, so let's try it.
THIS is what Crystal is supposed to look like This is from March, 2008 , the year of the never ending snow. As of today, February 5, we have the following:
Alpental: Bottom base >61". Crystal,BB>48".
I seriously doubt those numbers.
This , after one of the more active Decembers in History. Snowfall over 150", I-90 closed for more than 5 days, Snow in Seattle for almost 2 weeks around Christmas and New Years with sking from my house in Leshi down to the Leshi Market and then a skin ride home . COLD powder days at Crystal, Send your Photo's and we'll up load them.
It's supposed to start snowing again. Son andrew , after just purchasing his first Alpine Touring setup has left for 4 to 5 months in India and Nepal. Julia is stuck in Lubbock, wishing she had a boyfriend with a jet to get her to Taos on the weekends. I'm just waiting for my ski pards to call........
