Just an update from my post several weeks ago about all the snow we've had. Our house is now at 125 inches for the season. We have had at least 5 inches of snow on the ground for 117 consecutive days and now enough is enough. Last week alone another 13 inches dumped on my yard...............but if you think we have it bad, two passes close to us had the most snow on the planet last week in a four day period.

Lookout Pass, on the Idaho/Montana border measured 6 1/2 feet of snow in a four day period last week bringing their total for the year to 421 inches. The ski area at the pass has a base of 194 inches at the top and 122 inches at the bottom. Actual, unpacked depth at the pass is 18 feet.

Lolo Pass, 20 miles directly west of us, measured 6 feet of snow in the same period. Actual unpacked depth on the cross country ski trails in now at 14 feet, with up to 2-3 feet more expected in the next 36 hours.

I feel cheated. The snow in my yard is only 30 inches deep now. Warm weather is setting in and now the spring run-off begins. Gonna be some flooding somewhere around here.

Oh my God I want to take my board and go to Lookout Pass. I don't even know if that much snow would be good conditions, but it sounds incredible. I'll bring my blackberry so I can post updates from the sinkhole I end up in.

conditions are great MassPackersFan. Not quite spring snow yet. Up high its still cold and lots of powder. But, two deaths there already this year with skiers falling into tree wells and suffocating. The runs are pretty well packed, it's just that you don't realize how friggin much snow is beneath you.

Zero...not bitchin'. Just waiting for the snow to melt enough to see some lawn or something!

Missoula Snowbowl Ski area is planning to stay open through April 15th at least. 10 miles from downtown Missoula.

Any golf courses open yet around Pueblo or Colorado Springs? I play winter rules all year long. I'm old and cheat.

I don't know about Colorado Springs, but I think when I went through Fort Collins they had one open.

Bob, you keep your damn runoff of cow, buffalo, and elk shit. 🙂

This is going to be a nasty spring. We get Montana runoff in the Missouri River and Minnesota runoff in the Red River. The Missouri has several reservoirs, but they were close to capacity last summer. It could get real ugly for several Northern Plains and Northern midwest states.

And Bob will be high and dry.

Ya, you betcha der DakotaT buddy. If my house gets flooded then we have got ourselves one hell of a problem...........for most of western Montana. Lets see, that would have to be water 355 feet deep from the Bitterroot River to get to us.

Still good skiing/snowboarding in California, even on March 8th. The only difference - you have to drive to it.
