The ski area posted a picture this morning on their facebook page that showed about an inch out of this wind storm. It looks like the next chance will be Sunday/Monday (slight).

No need for a sticky. This thread will get 10 pages deep. I dont see the need for a sticky unless someone is trying to keep non paying snowest users from seeing whats happening up in the snowys.
Maybe have a new sticky every week but one sticky for all of 2012 to 2013 is dumb!!!! I will campain for no sticky untill it goes away. Im not doing it just for myself. Its for eveyone.
Please reply if you think this sticky is BS.
I will not post any of my riding pics or snow Conditions in this sticky.

No one said you have to in the first place. No one is making you do anything.

You gave your opinion, here is mine. You're wrong. I am all for a sticky and keeping everything in one place. We have done this in this forum for several years and it has worked great. You're definitely in the minority on this issue.

 

[snwman77]

You are wrong snopro. Just because there has been a sticky for years does not make it right. Once this thread gets too big guys that have have good pics and snow info cant post. If you think im wrong, dont open my posts this winter with my pics, videos and snow info. As i wont be posting on this thread.
This sticky keeps non snowest payers from getting good info and posting good info. So if you think this is a good sticky YOU ARE DUMB!

 

[snwman77]

And yes, a sticky is forcing non payers to start new threads asking about the snow. I dont care too much about snow conditions up in the snowys as i live close enough but if a guy lives in Minnesota and when this thread gets too big for him to see the latest news. This stick forces him to look somewhere else for info.

Way to bring it down to a 3rd grade level with the name calling. You smell!

You know what I think is dumb. Spending more than $10,000 on a hobby and then not being willing to pay $14.95 a year it costs for information on snow conditions.

I agree its fricking sad big babies cry and wine about not being able to read these sticky posts because they are that low they can't cash in their change jar and help snowest out with this website we love so much!

Just a FYI, we used to do it your way and there were a bazillion personal threads about conditions. You would have to wade through each one only to find expired information.

The majority wanted to align there info so it would be a up to date one stop shop. Sorry you dont want to pay the 15$ a year but there are truely more benefits than just this conditions. You may take a few minutes to look at a premium membership you may find you like it.
