I love the west coast. Spent a month there last year all around Tahoe
but unfortunately it wasn't the best season there.


It wasn't the best season anywhere last year, sadly. I went to Colorado
and experienced the worst snow I could ever remember. When I was a pro
ski patrolman at Breckenridge in the Seventies, we typically had in
excess of 200" per season. Last year they'd had a bit more than 90" by
the middle of February.

You guys don't have the faintest idea what you're talking about.


"2005-06 was the first season since 1998-99 with more ski areas having
above average snow than below. The Northern Rockies and Northern Colorado
had abundant snow from the start, with Utah similarly blessed from early
December and the Pacific States from the holidays onwards. Only the far
Southwest suffered, with minimal natural snow before March." -

Colorado had record snowfall. Tahoe absolutely got *pasted* late in the
season. Sorry you were't in the right place at the right time, but last
year was a *very* good year (except New Mexico).

Could have fooled me, Walt. The snow was lousy and icy for the entire week
we skied. And there were bare spots everywhere. Were we in the Colorado of
a parallel universe? :-)
