sorry the wagon deal fell through this year. between crappy weather and wedding planning I think I have maybe 6 days in...compared to 35 or so last year.
We'll do it up big time next year....my suggestion. We do the annual cabin trip. But I also think sometime...say sept. we should start planning a true wagon train trip. Mammoth or oregon or colorodo or something. Like a 4/5 day trip.

FYI: I updated some info on the resort closing dates.
I'm w/ you on the blustery conditions, Ray. I considered hitting up KW for a couple days, but I've got a midterm on Mon. So topping it off w/ the projected gusts, riding is a "No Go" this wknd. I'm sure some sections may be good where the winds push the pow around & make some nice li'l stashes here & there. But those will probably be few & far between.
If one of y'all get out there this wknd, pls. enlighten us all w/ a conditions update. tia

COOL! where do you guys plan to go?
I want to Bordercross! Northstar had a sick course last year, same with Sierra 2 or 3 years back. I only got to play mid mountain at Kirkwood, i went to the top and it was all stormy.
