here in chicago the 50-60+ degree temps are here and seems as tho the season is over - WTF!

anyone else in the same boat?

I'm pretty happy tho, first started snowboarding in January, and as of last night got in about 30 days -
60 is the goal for me for next season ( 14 week season )

Whistler just got over 100cm's in a week.

just sayin.

I've been riding every weekend since Thanksgiving and Tahoe just got no less than 7 ft at every resort in the past 72 hours. I got no idea what you're talking about!

Lee Caynon keeps getting icier and I can't see it getting any better for longer than half a day or so. I feel your pain but I'm still hoping to get in 2 more days and if Brianhead or Big Bear get any more snow one more POW day.
I started boarding in early/mid Jan and have been up 19 times so really want to break the 20 mark lol. Next year I am planning on moving up to Revelstoke so hopefully I will be boarding 5-7 days a week from Dec til end of the season. Ah I can't wait to hit the Revelstoke slopes with a brand new Bataleaon Undisputed. It will be a great season next year!

there's where I'm headed next February

Nagano is closer to Japan, but I really want to hit Hokkaido.

I am in the same boat, no more snow this year. I'm kind of glad, being on these dinky hills in Kentucky is depressing. I really regret not moving west last fall like I had planned. This summer I am finding a place in Denver and settling in, so I can be ready for next year... I want to be on a mountain every day I have off work!

Here in delaware (really Poconos cause delaware sucks) the season is over. Its supposed to be in the 50s for the rest of the month.

It was a sad night tonight as i "summerized" by boards

Yeah, I live in CT and thought that the recent storm would leave a lot of snow, but with temps in the 40's it's melting fast.
