    It's looking good for this weekend!
    The weather is shaping up nicely. We should see quite a bit of snow. :D I don't think it will be as good as president's day though.

    Won't be as light and fluffy, but it should have some depth to it and should fill in a lot of steep stuff nicely. I'm thinking some lines will finally fill in nice enough to get a little crazy with... Can't wait!

    I'll be hitting Alpine Saturday, and then doing some teaching/coaching on Sunday at Donner.. :( Might try to get a sick day beforehand though... Will have to see... It's already falling as all snow at the resorts up there... Definitely good and getting better...

    So, where you planning on riding?

    Hey, Ryde, how was it? Looks like I might be cutting out to ride Friday & Sat now, with my whimpy day on Sunday tooling around Donner...

    Probably at Sugar Bowl on Friday... Haven't been there since I did some outabounds splitboarding off the backside there last spring... Shouldn't suck on a pow day.. Hopefully winds won't be a big issue...

    Bringing the big boards, hoping for some deep spots on Friday....
