who knows kirkwood...will 2 feet of snow mean they'll actually be able to open more up on Friday? They're calling for winds 25-30 mph, and 50+ gusts above 8k feet...how does that fare for opening up lifts?

55mph wind is usually the shut off for lifts.

and let me tell you, if you on a lift with 55mph winds, with a board, your gonna have issues. Most of us dont have that problem though on skis.

It's already a mix of rain here in NW Reno. I think urban is a pretty sure bet this evening or tomorrow morning.

Boreal was great tonight. First major donut sesh in the parking lot. Really went off when two tow trucks showed up and started going off. One was a full-size flatbed. Frickin' hilarious.

I probably would have paid money to see that. So glad it's finally snowing by the way.

be careful lads, we were skiing trees around sugar bowl and my buddy hit some covered rocks and ejected from his skis.. then about an hour later he noticed there was a giant dent in the front of his helmet, he totally could have died if he was wearing it so until the base improves WEAR A FREAKING HELMET!!!!!!

wear one anyway, even when there is more base, even if you have a big grundel/gaper
