Ever wanted to ski natural snow in July/nearly August on the east coast? Well head to buffalo, and grab a shovel... because apparently they still have a LOT.

If it's been there for 8 months doesn't it technically count as a glacier at this point?

Looks like less hiking than Hood and the snow is probably just as good for now.

I don't know man. That 10 foot hike might get the best of me real quick.

I feel like if your snow pile is covered in grass it's more of a yard than a glacier.

I'll bring some flowers to plant in your glacier. We could make a nice dual level planter bed. Maybe add some dwarf trees on each side. I've got a lot of ideas. Maybe a nice paver stairway and a small deck/seating area on top.
