Inviting all sledders to West Yellowstone

[oonighttrain]

Whoever said the Gusher sucks butt - x2 on that. We got sicker than hell eating that crap. Nothing like explosive diaherria on the hill the next day - not something I ever want to do again.

gusher sucks BAD!!

best food in west in my opinion is the "bar n" its west on 20 probably 6 miles west of town. not cheap but, the atmosphere and the food is excellent. not sure if they are gonna be open in the winter though.. kurt (GW) would know..

Hey Kurt, how about a snow update.. has anyone been out?

Wild West Pizzeria makes one of my favourite pizzas, but don't forget about their macaroni casserole! It is simply the best and to die for, add any meat to it as you wish. And try to finish one of their calzones (giant pizza pocket),they are very good too! Wish the dude would open up shop here in Red Deer as most of our pizza shops suck and thats not saying much for a city of 80,000. He would make a killing here and the name fits right in with Red Deer's atmosphere.
Anyhow, that is one place I visit more than once when I am in West.

Bucky and Brian were up at cabin Sat. They said there was around three feet in places with hardly any in other places. Groomers have not run and will not until we get at least a foot down low. There is suppose to be a system coming in on Friday night through Monday. We will have to wait and see if it happens. The last two systems split before they got here and we ended up with very little out of either one............

thanks.. Hopefully it really dumps...my mood is as low as the snow totals...

[Big D rmk700]

Not a chance in fact I will buy the first two rounds if it hits 60. I am guessing around 45". Winter storm watch right now I say 3" out of this one.

It just shows that location historically has and average of 11.6 inches of accumulation as of today (December 11th) Doesn't seem right though...

Well I hope this is a good omen. We are getting snow here now. It looks like your web cam shot, about the same amount of snow as you guys. Hope you get pounded with the white stuff this weekend!
