Tuna just sent me this picture!

He must be skiing so fast that the atmosphere around him instantly freezes any airborne water turning it into bottomless powder!

Looks promising!

Bear Base Area is on hold (lifts and lodge),Skyeship Base is closed for the day (lift and lodge),K-1 Express is on hold.

8:28 am 02/03/16--Here's the deal, skiers and riders, a mixed bag of weather is on the way and while our elevation often blesses us with a better outcome than forecasters predict, today will be a sloppy affair at The Beast. Temps are expected to rise, precipitation will likely take many forms, and winds are gusty.

This is definitely going down as one of the most epic threads in this forum's history.

No doubt he'll blame the lack of snow on cloud seeding by the New World Order.

Wow, you guys are relentless. This pistol whipping that Tuna is taking over his posts makes the beating I took over my "whales vs wales" thread look like a group hug in comparison
