When is this next storm coming in? I quickly glanced at the weather but didn't see anything. Your reports as a local are much better than what I can find on the internet 1,200 miles away! Thank you for keeping us posted

Yea, the NOAA forecasts are usually on the conservative side...

check this site: www.opensnow.com/forecasts

Usually good real world forecast, at least in the CA section for us here in the Sierras.... But I've been following the CO section for my trip to the Mesa in a couple weeks. Site is mostly skier-orientated, but I'll take good news about snow from anywhere. He's looking at the 8th-9th for the next round.... Hope so, I get to CO on the 10th!!

Joel with opensnow is the best hands down for Co.....

However, with this storm he drastically under predicted which is abnormal for him.

When is too much of a good thing too much? Ha! I have a group of relatives coming in on the 9th, all newbies. Since right now there is just a ton of fresh on the Mesa, another 2 feet will really mess them up! Too bad for them! It's a good thing I don't mind getting people unstuck. :face-icon-small-hap

Headed up tomorrow for two days of riding! Yee Hah! I can't wait! I talked to a couple of guys at the gas station yesterday that had been on top all day - said they found upwards of 3 1/2 ft of powder in places! Woo hoo! Time to get stuck!
 
Snow still awesome!

It's beautiful outside today and the riding is still awesome like always! Come on up an visit us at Alexander lake lodge after you get done sledding for some nice hot food and a refreshing beer or beverage.
