Considerable snow fell in January, bringing the seasonal amount up to almost 90% of "normal". That's great compared to last year but, it's not up to the past 30 or so year's average. Let's hope that February gets as much snow as is forecast.
The long range weather models are showing warming than normal but, slightly wetter than normal conditions up through Hardrock time.
Thanks to everyone who entered this year's lottery. We're thrilled to have such a wonderful crew joining us, and look forward to each lottery entrant getting a turn in the future.
