How much pow is enough?
What would be a reasonable amount of snowfall to get in an 18 day
vacation? How about 22 ft - an average of 14 inches a day? The storm of the century started when I arrived and stopped just before I left... Iain (smug *******) Kirkwood (Tahoe): stormin.... Coming up: review of Burton Triumph 173... (it's a lunker but it's sweet) |

I thought it was 100 (ish) inches over the first 8 days, so you must have got even more after I left. Iain (smug *******) Kirkwood (Tahoe): stormin.... Did you get to Mammoth?

Yes, the whole storm cycle repeated itself, complete with bluebird day at the end. I got first tracks (straightlining) in the sun under chair 4 after it had been shut for 3 days :-) Did you get to Mammoth? No, prevented by the storm... Coming up: review of Burton Triumph 173... (it's a lunker but it's sweet) So, you bought it then? From TriCity? And what's a a "lunker"? Bought from Out of Bounds in Carson City - a good shop. I took a core shot in Eagle Bowl on my very first descent with the new board - they fixed it with a base weld that evening free of charge. Oh, and a lunker is a derogatory term (like strapper or chainer) which applies to anything longer that mb4matic's longest board :-) Iain |

Yeah, the guys in there seemed to know about the hardware, even if the girls were obviously just hangers-on who knew nothing about the clothing. And what's a a "lunker"?
