Greetings all, plans for the upcoming season? I have made tentative plans
for Jackson, Alta and perhaps Mammoth.

Looking forward to a ton of snow.


A week in March in Brian Head and once-a-week local skiing at Big Bear,
assuming there's snow. They say they're opening Nov 18, but it's just
bare dirt right now.

We're off to the 3V again, a big family party, 6 children from a few
months old to 7 and 8 adults (FSVO adult).


I understand that in lieu of paid child care it's still legal to wedge
them behind a piano in some countries...

Snow is forecast for this weekend and freezing level dropping below 500m.

The drought continues. We're only allowed to water one day a week now
(Saturday), except for hand-watering. I have to wonder what that does
to the City's pipes. Big Bear can suck as much water to make snow as it
needs from the lake (some years it's ALL man-made snow), but the cost of
the electricity to do it matters quite a bit.
