We broke ground for our cabin build a year ago @ 71 degrees.
How's your DZ landing area ?
We haven't been to "Soup" since Beve's funeral, but word has it "Soup" is very soupy.
We're just s. of there a few miles, with @ 10" new over past 3 days, still coming down through tomorrow [:/]:(

A couple days ago I skied 5" of fresh powder.:o
Today I skied 11" of fresh powder in a blizzard complete with snow blindness and vertigo above the tree line.:o:S
The forecast is snow every day for the next week.:)

Vertigo sucks! When I say that, I mean it makes you lose your balance and it sucks your head below your feet. :(


And when you recover consciousness, your fingers and toes still tingle. [:/]

It mainly sucks when you are moving, but there is nothing visible to judge your speed, so you have no idea how fast you are going...or where you are. When I was skiing two days ago, I went over a 10' dropoff...that I had no idea was there.:S

Right now... record snowstorm for this date, breaking the old record set in 1898. All I can say at this point is.......

see attachment [:/]



Agreed :S
Since noon yesterday Yogi dumped another 16" on us, still snowing, high winds, teen temps & forecast with 4 more today [:/]
This after last week's 12" from Walda ...
We get a break tomorrow, then more forecasted Sun & Mon & throughout next week UGH :|
Watched 3 adult deer & a fawn try to cross through our land this am...
Snow past the adults 'kness', poor fawn was literally dragging his belly trying to keep up :(
Trees are bent, limbs & power lines snapped !
This is more significant then some of the worse snows I experienced in my years in Anchorage !

As of today, 4-29-13 the last of the ice is gone from the lake. Temps are rising, DZ's are open and all is good in the world.

Water Ski Wednesdass and Tubbin Tuesdays will resume as soon as the water temps rise above 39 degrees (for the Minnesoootans) and 60 degrees for you southerners. B|

Yes, it's been a long winter. There is no such thing as global warming!!! :P

We've had near 80 the past 3 days..still some ice chunks around the place, but drastically took a change real fast... a week ago we had 40+ " on the ground :)
Thursday they're saying snow/ showers, though :o:([:/]
Global warming, end of time apocalypse, all politicians are honest & skydivers do best in high winds....:|:S
Hope to see you this season !
Enjoy & BlueSkies B|;)
