Had a big storm last weekend and supposed to get a few inches tonight. It's decent in Utah but we need a lot more. I'll be up at Solitude tomorrow morning.

It's been dumping here in CO. Silverton has received over 100 inches in the last few weeks. Check out this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a451a-8TfHI

Breck has also received over a foot in the last week. It's shaping up to be a nice Xmas.

Give us a shout when you are out next.

10" at Solitude today and it's supposed to keep snowing through Friday afternoon. We're finally going to get a good base started. Keep those storms coming.

Yep, we'll keep sending them your way after ringing 'em out for a bit. Finally getting our base here. Should have a white Christmas, then a white New Year again...

Can't wait to get back on the snow.. Two days to go...

You in the film biz now, toots? I had you pegged as more of a slamdance kinda feller.

Anyway, Park City: bring your own puffy made from the wings of iridescent butterflies, and your own beer. Made from whatever beer is made from.

Wet storm system rolling thru here. Local mountains are getting skunked, but so. Sierra is lighting up nicely.

I love winter.

Smooches!
