Hm, Wolf Creek has about a 140" base right now.... I've also got 42 days in thus far and in the past two weeks 5 of them have been in 10" or more powder. My buddy who grew up in Virginia said the east coast was a big ice rink? You guys must be getting it good.

Ohh it can get icy here for sure. Particularly the mid atlantic region. The snow is definitely different than compared to out west. Both have their advantages and disadvantages..Its neet to experience riding both types. Board setup is definitely a must. Where I am we also get the lake effect which is very light in nature...drops in buckets, very direct placement.

I just think back to last year at this time..totally green highs in mid 50

Just wondering, our snow even in low numbers has been for the most part great. The mention of the East Coast being hell from a buddy who rode there solid for 9 years and loving even the worst days here had me wondering.... People that move here to Colorado from the East Coast make it sound like it's not even worth it to own a snowboard lol, so I am an unedumacated fool, as I've never been out there.

All I can say is that people from the East fly out to Colorado for their snowboard vacations. Why? Because the snow is better, the terrain is better, and you got real mountains.

People from Colorado don't fly out to the east coast. Why? Because the snow sucks and there are no mountains...
