2011/12 Snowy Range snow conditions

[togwotee9]

That picture isn't Silver lake...that is Libby Flats, you can see the observation point in the center back of the picture. That is what that area looks like 75% of the time unless we get a good snow storm with no wind. The first 4 of those pictures were around libby flats which during a heavy wind year is the worst place to try to ride regardless of how much snow we get.

Sorry I posted the wrong picture, I'll find the pics of Silver lake when I get home. Reguardless the snow sucks right now. I've been riding the snowies since 1995 and this is the worst season I can remember.

IMO you seem to have an agenda.

Tog9, perhaps but it will not matter to you as you will be in bed by 8:00 PM.

Storm

How did the Snowys fair in this storm? Centennial was supposed to get 10-12", more higher up.

They need Feet of snow, not inches. Hopefully this is a good start to get the Range up and running again!

Snowtels are all wack, some showing slight gain, others showing loss.

Any real reports?

I will be riding out of Albany tomorrow through Sunday if they have internet I will post what I can!

It was raining in Centennial at 5:30 this morning. The owner at the ski area told me they got about an inch overnight, but the wind was having its way with it. This is what I saw from my desk this morning. We still have a chance of snow through the weekend. Keep your fingers crossed!

Go figure!

 

[newmy1]

Looks like we'll be waiving at the range as we drive by it on the way to tog on 1/27 then.

 

[MNSnowCat]

Looking a NOAA Wx radar, system looks stalled.

 

[coyoteman]

Ah ****.

Jake(Ritfire) and I went out today................would love to report hood deep, over the bars snow...........but I'd be lying. We went north of Rock Creek, west thru Johnson Park up to Sand Lake and back down past Bow River, then thru the gap. Mostly what we found was 1/4 to 1/2" of ICE on a couple of inches of new snow. When our skiis would cut through the crust the front would dive and try and throw you over the bars; fun city! Oh well, sounds like possibly another coming in on Saturday.......keep your fingers crossed.

Let's blame ritfire!!
