It's kind of funny because now that our highs have only been in the 30's for a week now, everybody is saying it's sooooo cold. But, usually, these middle weeks in January, we're dealing with 10 degrees and a windchill of -20. People forget quickly. This is still warmer than average.

A-Basin is barebones and the people that go there are a very...specific...type. I think there's some spring skiing event where people go down with costumes on and then barbecue or something like that. Basically the opposite of people in Aspen.

I hear the resorts didn't get much powder this year because it all hit the Denver area instead. True? I know last year the cities got barely any snow and the mountains got hit hard.

Loveland is bare bones and on the hyw. to the hole in the wall, it is a day trip from Denver.

A-Basin the same only harder. Over the pass and throught the tundra so to speak.:D

Cannot remember the town just off of I-70 just West of Silverthorn that is close to:

Breck
Keystone
Copper
Vail
Sunlight

God hell to get mature and miss skiing!:(

It's snowing again, and we're off to the theatre to see "Spelling Bee."

DA, snowed in KC. Cannot blame it Co. this time, it came from the south!:)

Looks nice, but driving in it sucks at 6:00 AM!


"Spelling Bee", sounds like something right up my alley!:)

I think the major areas are in pretty good shape. There was a lot of early season snow in the mountains -- and some opened early. I haven't heard that there are any problems.
