    You've got to be kidding me. Three feet?

    EDIT: Oh my God, season pass for only $900? And later it will be $1700?! WHAT THE HELL.

      Right on!. Glad to see other people are out. I rode Wolf Creek last weekend and tomorrow I am riding opening day at Breck. They're opening with three jib parks and a triple jump line. So stoked!

        Totally jealous.

        There's a possibility I'll be getting my first turns in this Saturday. The locals have been getting a fair amount of snow, nothing will be open, but it might be worth a hike.

                Hey Jack,

                Mountain high also opened yesterday. One lift and all man made snow. I wanted to go but I also like having my bases intact. I think they advertised an 8-12" base. I watched their web cam and I saw only one skier going up on the lift.Pretty good for a SoCal opening though. Good to see Mammoth looks great. Might have to take a 4 hour roadtrip.

                  Wow Jack. Excellent 1st day conditions and weather. Looks like it was well worth the drive for you. Thanks for teasing us with the pictures and video.

                    Breck was so great today. Unfortunately, my friend hit his head and got a concussion on a cork 5 and we had to end our day early. But, we hit some untracked 2' of powder. The triple jump line was decent. Tomorrow we hit Keystone. See, I'm glad I moved to the west.

                          Today at Keystone was even better than yesterday. Snowed all day, the park has so many rail setups, and we found some backwoods powder stashes with a few drops and rock jumps. So rad.
