1-2 inches per hour = 1-2 Feet + at Togwotee!
NOAA FORECAST..DRIVE SAFE & PLAN ACCORDINGLY if you will be traveling in NW Wyoming Sunday into Monday Night...
But once your here....it should be epic by Monday Night. It's a whole new experience storm riding in the super fresh powder at the end of the storm, as I'm sure many SnoWest riders have experienced. I'll be off Tuesday and Wednesday too!

Travel safe! Ben
