OK I knwo most of you get snow & too much but here in the NW we rarely get it at least where we are so I thought I would take a pic but it's not the best!!! It's pretty cool though & the kids are major excited whoo hooo. It's supposed to bring a couple inches so that'll be fun. I wish it would just keep snowing about 3ft, I'm from South Dakota originally so I used to be used to it now it's like Christmas hahaha. It's taken me oh aobut 8 yrs to get used to no snow at Christmas time:rolleyes:

What do ya mean no snow in WA? They set the single season snowfall record there a few years ago, I think it was around 1100" :eek2:

They had to dig the skilifts out at Mt. Baker:eek2: :eek2:

I wish I was there.

It better start getting cold here soon or I'll be getting cranky, it was 59 degrees this morning!

You got more than we did. It didn't even stick. We are at 900 feet but a tad too far south. The kids are watching the snow line on the Enumclaw mountains and chompin at the bit to go play in the snow. LOL I keep telling them just to wait, the snow will be better after Christmas:D They just don't understand why:confused: :devil:

Today we had plus 10 degrees celcius ( u do the math to find out ferenheit)

In salem it was like peple thought it was the apocolypse, damn city people. Time to take the 440 fora little joyride down the street.:devil: tow'n a sled of course.

Yeah on our anniversary a couple years a go we took the quads out Hwy20 past Granite Falls & there's a littel motel that we stayed at then drove up the rode a couple miles & rode in the DEEP snow, in fact we ended up digging & pulling out a Jeep Cherokee w/ my Kodiak:eek2: there was some good trails up there too, to get to it you just go out Hwy20 to the blue bridge!!

Ive been up to Walker Vally in the winter time and 1/2 way up we hit the snow line,but the trails were so tight and narrow ..it made it hard to have fun in it,Reiter isnt much dif up top but wide enough to get slide-ways:D Whats up w/ this place Ive been hearing about called P5000?Have you guys been there?I already heard they were gonna close it down....,hope not...I haven't been there to check it out and I just love scouting new places to ride,even if its just to tell myself its not worth goin' back:D :blah:

If it's the same place I'm thinking of it's up in Granite Falls we've been there a few times it's pretty good riding, it's logging roads & you can go off on some trails also I personally like it up there. Maybe one weekend we'll have to meet up there & go for a ride, it's only about 25min from my house if that!!:)
