Hehehe, yup! The trail clean up is this weekend too. I also just picked up 4 free lift tickets to sugar bowl or kirkwood, plus a "tahoe card" in which I get free rentals.

This year I'm going to order a butt pad before I go snowboarding. http://www.planetaltitude.com/snowst...wstoreghg.html

Sprung for the Tahoe card, huh? Good deal. Sugar Bowl is fun, I always thought it was a bit more beginner friendly.

Nothing better than stopping at the In N Out in Auburn on the way home from a weekend in Tahoe!

The first time I went snowboarding was a sugar bowl...had a blast. My friend at work has the hookup for a really nice condo at south lake so for the past couple years we've been going to heavenly. Everybody at work says kirkwood is the best plus with the free tickets we'll be going there this year.

gapguy · 10-19-2004, 12:47 PM

You're making me miss cali! I lived like 25 minutes from Auburn! Could make it to sugar bowl in 40 minutes easily!!!

It's snowing here in Wyo, but it's REALLY flat.............. :pat:

TDiddy · 10-19-2004, 12:49 PM

Awesome hookup. I'm planning on coming out there in Feb. when Sarah's out there for work. There's some meetings in Davis and in San Jose in Feb. too, if I can swing one of those then I'd have free airfare. Fly in for the meeting, fly home from Reno!

JEDI87 · 10-19-2004, 01:01 PM

Yep,it's been snowing all night and all day so far.I live at 6250' and work at 8000'.It isn't sticking to the roads quite yet but it is starting to pile up off road.It will start sticking to the road this afternoon.It was raining the last few days.

snwbrdpunk16 · 10-19-2004, 01:09 PM

Dammit! i wish it would start gettin cold enough to snow here! freakin washington sucks. we better get a lot of snow in the lower elevations this year!!

Im jealous!

X-AWDriver · 10-19-2004, 01:46 PM

In the '80s Colorado already would have had a at least two to three good snows already but we're still waiting for some real snow along the front range.

instntset · 10-19-2004, 05:28 PM

All that snow up there has equaled 3 straight days of rain down here in Reno. It is quite the welcome break though. Looking forward to the snowboarding season which looks like it will be starting soon!!!!!!!!!!

JEDI87 · 10-19-2004, 05:34 PM

It keeps turning into rain as soon as it starts to pile up.We're supposed to get a foot at lake leval (6250') and over two feet at my work (7900').Time to use the snowblower again.

calrockx · 10-19-2004, 06:08 PM
