Ok I do realize it is still winter.

My question is how does a forecast of 4cm snow overnight equate to this?

I think those highly educated weather people should get their money back!

wish I had a mountain and a pair of sticks to go along with that...
guess, running water and a paddle will have to do.

it's all downhill though

Colorado has been hammered this year with snow. It will be a good year to paddle Colorado. However, you will probably be looking at where to paddle to avoid very high water, if we get our average spring snows.

Some mountains location have only had 5 to 7 days without snow and are already at 100% for the year with 2 1/2 months to go.

Here is a picture of our March 2003 6' Front Range snow storm. Umm, I want spring snow, but hoping for it to be a little more spreadout then all at once.

XC ski my friend !

Hilarious how spring runs are sooooo easy, cardio vascular wise, after 1500 km's (1000 miles for you south of the border) of free style XC skiing.

Effortless actually

Get out there and enjoy, now's the time to get fit !

Do you need some boxes? How about some global warming?

Yesterday I played at Weldon. Air 77 degrees. Water 51

It's still a little chilly to ski though. Most folks still have the ski boats under their covers.

I'm snowed in again. it's the second day of a wicked ground blizzard (big wind, no snow), but the snow is scheduled to start this evening. It should get a lot worse. On the bright side, water is going to run big this summer, great paddling ahead.

when all that stuff melts and starts draining down earth's surface, with tilt and rotation... we'll have a great juicy summer in the southeast! Yall come down, reuse that h2o, and paddle in shorts! .....

another gravity sport like snow skiing!! That is what I did mostly until a friend said, Helen you like skiing so much, you should try paddling...it's a gravity sport too.
It's been 3 years now that I haven't gone skiing....I find I'd rather take more trips paddling!
BUT, if I lived in an area where snow skiing was an option, you know I'd be doing that when boating wasn't an option!
