We've Got Snow! (Out West Looking Good)


I might have jumped the gun yesterday. It looks like the snow winner is going to of course be, Snowbird!!! According to their pic of the day, things are shaping up to be great. While I don't know if this is the first snowfall of the season, it is certainly the first I've caught wind of. They say the location of this is in Cottonwood Canyon. Giddyup. It's only a 34 hour Subaru ride from D.C. to Utah. Who is in for a few weeks living in a car out West?

Is there a better sight than a snow filled canyon road? While it makes for gnarly driving, it opens up all sorts of possibilities. Soon, we'll be talking about the season's plans, layering, gortex, new gear, new slopes, runs, video, and pictures for the 2010 shred season. Boloney Moguls: coming to a slope near you.

UPDATE: Jackson Hole's FB page confirms the storm is rolling in up there too. Tetons and the Wasatch being hit on the same day. Will there be some accumulation at the higher altitudes? We've got to hope.
