Last landing on 29" Bushwheels before getting ready for skis. We got well over a foot of snow the next day.

Re: It’s that time of the year again

It's been marginal, but the skis have been on for almost a month. Cold then warm then windy, cold then warm then windy, repeat.. Still can't trust the ice on the lakes. Probably by the end of next week. Looks like it might actually be winter for a bit.
