hey grizzly7 have you ever thought about being a comedian. you would really get a few laughs out of your crowd.
Measured 14" at the lodge this morning. More on the way it looks. You stay in school young man and when you are making a Bazzillion dollars a year due to your education I'll just sell you the lodge and you can ride all the time. Also if you get all A's your uncle and I will give you some more lessons on mountain riding!

Ya i only have a year left of school. and about the baazillion dollars not sure about that.
As of now prolly not gonna buy the lodge anytime soon. but i will keep coming up there and giving you patronage.
O and while your up there getting 2,3 and 4 feet of snow im back in WI riding on flat land and smooth trails.
NICE! Welcome to the "Pineapple Express" Mark. When we get southwest flow, it's almost always REALLY good for the Mesa. I'll see you this weekend, we'll be up both days. Saturday will be a backcountry day, but I'm bringing my old man up on Sunday for his birthday - we'll come by for lunch.
well what can i say !!!!
Mark is one of us. The guy that would help you in a minute take the shirt off his back. What is his is yours. I think the grand mesa has found its mayor!!!!! The conditons today were sick !!!!! So for all you weekend warriors were going to track up all this 2 foot of fresh powder. Yes 2 feet plus. So bring your snorkels !!!!! And shovels and leave the beginners it home. We will be back !!! Spread the word that this is the place to stay in the mesa !!!!!!

Big snow on the Grand Mesa, 30" in the last 2 days and it is a total whiteout right now. Rode for a couple hours this morning and it was perfect. Looks like it is going to snow all night. Bring your "A" game and come on up. Conditions could not be more perfect.

We're up here now and rode the last two days. The snow today was back to being light and fluffy and fun to ride in. It seems amazing that in all these years I'd never been to the Mesa (guilty of going to RE all the time) but this has been very nice. I think Mark will be a real asset for the snowmobile community...he's great to work with and has some big ideas for making the Lodge even better. The food has been good and the cabins are warm and dry. It's not quite Togwotee but that's really okay in a lot of ways! I would definitely come back up...not loading and unloading everyday and driving to town is nice and the snow has been phenomenal.
Thanks,
Donavon
