You're welcome.
If I had brought my skis, it wouldn't have snowed.

How is this impacting resorts' bottom lines? You can't make up the season in March/April. Do enough people still go or do other activities to make up for lost ski revenue?

I'd love to see a study on how unpredictable various ski regions in the country are for snowfall. In other words, how big a difference do you see in the range compared to the mean.
Tahoe seems to be pretty volatile. They can get slammed - but they can also get nothing.

www.bestsnow.net has some standard deviation info for the different areas. Tahoe is the most volatile. Utah is usually the most consistent, along with Grand Targhee.

For all the bitching we deserve some pics
Drought continues on. Got a couple feet of blower last week and back to sunny and 50's. Forecast is looking same ol....I'm wondering if we'll even go past Easter. At this point I just assume it end so I'm free to go to Colorado and spend some time skiing/biking before my busy summer season starts back east.

Bump, March LOL.
No new snow, Temps getting me days and a melting snowpack. Many at this point would just assume it melt off so we can get the fuck out of here and move on. Employee housing is modern day grapes of wrath, minus the dying and stuff. Imagine working so little and getting a two week pay period check for 000.00 because rent deductions. I actually heard the new policy was to give a minimum of 75 dollars...to eat for two weeks.
Me, I'm actually still having fun...making decent money and skiing super techy lines. Totally gotten robbed...at no point did it feel like winter and with a warm forecast and April approaching I just don't know if its going to happen at all. Maybe a late storm? Maybe next year? Kirkwood season total=150 in!

Wow. Squaw Valley must be really doing badly. They are selling full season passes for $349.

At least the Sierras got a nice dump today. Saw a pic from Snoseek. Must have been awesome.
