Your Waist or mine?
I'm pretty short you know.....
That sure sounds like good news. I'm ready to get after it, and I know better than to try and road ride.
Have you worn out that new sled yet? I've put on about 375 miles right in the trailer! Haven't gotten stuck once yet this year! Bagger

Supposed to go to Seahawks game Sunday, and at least use one of my season tickets this year, but with all of this snow they might have to wait till next year.
Hasn't stopped snowing all day, and it sounds like it is going to continue through the week. It's time for you to get some real miles on the sled. No more bench miles !
The snow park has about 2 feet in it right now, kind of tough to turn in at the first entrance by the ranger station.

You're right , the snow did settle late this afternoon when the freezing rain came in for a couple of hours. Was up at the snow park earlier today while it was snowing quite heavily. Vic will probably be up at the snow park tomorrow plowing the parking lot, and then onto grooming the trails later.

Here's the report hot off the hill. Parking lot not plowed, but it doesn't need to be yet. Was snowing when we arrived at 9:30 and snowed all damn day. Went up north fork and you could start to play at about snow cabin elevation. 9-10 inches new at that point and only got better from there. Headed toward Blue Lake, couldn't make it (too much snow for our wimpy little sleds, my buddy has a new rev XP X and me on my little Struthers 975). About 20 inches and blown in to 4 feet at this point. Headed for Super Bowl, Went up roller coaster and could only make it to within about 100 yards of the road. Once again too much snow. At this point there was about 30 inches of fresh with drifts and fill ins that were very very deep. Went back down roller to the road up to the east to super bowl. Was blown in and had a very long side hill to the hair pin. Made the turn and hit 5+ foot drifts. Did I say no grooming? Went back down a little lower and played in meadows and the new logged areas that we better wind protected and had a hoot all day. The wind quit about 2:30 but kept snowing. Tomorrows ride fell through, so will be back on Sunday. With all the storms predicted, it should be epic. Great start (finally) to the season.

I went up today with a couple of buddies and like was posted earlier, it was awsome. 2-3 ft powder drifts in areas and even deeper in other parts. We went up the north fork and went up roller coaster to lil bowl, wasnt easy then up past big bowl and down the backside to the middle fork, saw no tracks past big bowl 3-4 ft deep powder very challenging riding. We went out the middle fork and was punching trail on the main road, no tracks, snow drifts 5-7 feet deep. The some of the logging trails off the middle fork had "tank traps" in them so beware you cant jump them and you cant really go around. Have fun, but be safe, probably wont be a good day for newbies so leave them home.
