where do you find this forecast at?

We are here at Ten Mile and we only got an inch last night at the lodge. Let you know how much we got at high elevation later this afternoon. Local forecaster calling for snow for every day through Thursday.
We are getting ready to hook Paul's sled to the diesel and see if we can't bend that A Arm back just a little. The spring is tight against the upper a arm.

Great we will be at ten mile this weekend till the next cant wait to hear what they get!!!!
Ten Mile update. This morning, we now have about 10 inches of fresh since we arrived on Sunday. Snowed pretty good yesterday and they got quite a bit more up on top. We found a ton of deep deep powder in the trees yesterday on U and N. A lot of the open spots that everyone hits still needs a little more snow to be really good. Hopefully by the time we get up there today it will be really good.
It is snowing as I'm typing here. I'd have to say, it's like heaven out here!!

This storm dumped anything yet??
It snowed almost all day yesterday. It keeps looking better and better out here. We found some great stuff yesterday. Trees are still your best bet but there are some meadows that are pretty fun with the new snow (just need to find them.) Locals are calling for more snow today starting this afternoon. We found a lot of stuff on N yesterday West of the Quealy hut with a ton of stucks.
