most likely not. id have to say theyll have opening day some time during the first week of december if the forecast is correct. even then, itll be the earliest they've opened in years. who's up for some pre-steezin?

Is that a joke? I rode West a year ago to the day. That was my first day on snow last year, and the lifts were indeed running.

Last friday me and a few buds set up jibs at the base of central lift, so if anyone wants to jib its there, its dumping right now.

Definitely a foot or so fell today. Compared to the snow I encountered last night, today was much deeper on the roads/trails I was driving on. I-90 West was a shit-show from the summit back down.

Hiked around west and some roadside stuff at Alpental today. The lightest, fluffiest, deepest snow Ive ever skied. I made an edit too for anybody interested.

Probably not, last year on opening day a few snowboarders were hitting a rail they made and the police took one of their season passes and almost took the guy's board. But we all know that a skier does not accept that kind of shit.

.ANOTHER WINTER STORM TO AFFECT NORTHEAST OREGON AND SOUTHEASTWASHINGTON....A COMPLEX WINTER STORM WILL IMPACT THE REGION FROM LATE MONDAYNIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. HAVE FAIRLY HIGH CONFIDENCE THEWASHINGTON CASCADE EAST SLOPES AND THE BLUE MOUNTAINS WILL SEESIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL. LOWER ELEVATION SNOW AMOUNTS ARE LESSCERTAIN DUE TO A COMPLEX VERTICAL TEMPERATURE PROFILE AND VARYINGLOCATIONS OF MAXIMUM PRECIPITATION AS DEPICTED BY RECENT WEATHERMODEL RUNS. THE LOWER COLUMBIA BASIN AND ADJOINING AREAS,INCLUDING THE COLUMBIA RIVER GORGE, MAY SEE A SHORT PERIOD OFFREEZING RAIN LATE MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY MORNING. ADDITIONALLY,GUSTY WINDS COULD RESULT IN BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW MAINLYACROSS THE MID AND HIGHER TERRAIN.
