Sweet start to the season 3' of snow, it was enjoyed by all. Schweitzer opening tomorrow. Unless projections change all the areas should be open within a week.
49N is also opening today they and Schweitzer received several inches Friday. Just checked 22" at 49N of fresh snow. Lookout reporting 12" this Sat. Morning.
Maybe a new thread next year, maybe I should just quit tracking 6-7 ski areas and go ski.

+1 I don't find it that useful to force people to wade through past seasons postings to get to the current conditions. Sure, you can just look at the post date, but sometimes the ads block them and I was several posts in before I realized I was reading stuff from last decade and skipped to the last page. Just my 2 cents.

Another storm warning 6-18" expected. Silver has opened too.
49N received 16" now with a 63" base. 9" for Scweitzer.

I live on the west side of the Cascades and we are getting dumped on big time. As of this afternoon, 24/11/2011, Mt Baker had 26F and 66" to 84," Crystal Mountain 36" to 50," Steven's Pass 45" to 55" and Snoqualmie 23" to 49."
Forecast calls for snow tonight, a warm up Sat and Sun cooing off again Monday.
Unfortunately for me I won't be skiing until May. I ripped my quad tendon right off the patella and had surgery Sept 1st. Last time I skied was mid-May. I will continue to torture myself by reading all the ski forums and weather reports. With the second La Nina weather pattern this year it should be another great late spring and early summer season, I hope, I hope, I hope. Save some powder for me!

What a bunch of gimps, myself I have a pinched nerve and can't tolerate sitting so no skiing here either. I can post stoke all 5 local resorts open today.
As for other areas I'll stick to the ones within 3 hours of home, and let others do the rest.
Fernie opens Dec 2 operating everyday.
Skied Silver 2/12 conditions OK 25" base 40" top.

High pressure and cold air snow not melting or accumulating.. Still we are skiing even this gimp.
Just checked and Whitefish postponed opening until we get more snow, 25" base.

Hopefully the high pressure will move out soon. We skied White Pass and Crystal this weekend, 2 beautifully sunny, mostly groomer days on excellent base. Sunday was foggy and cold, a little snow. Fingers crossed for storminess, as with established base already, conditions will get good quickly

Fresh snow at Fernie 2" new depth at 5397' 119cm/47" and Castle 14 cm new, base 41cm, top 75 cm. It's been beautiful sunny skiing but ready for some new snow.
Gortonator is right we've got great bases at most ski areas.

2-4 inches across the region mostly falling during the day Friday. Skiing was quite enjoyable, any less it would have been a dust on crust experience.

pinhead, how was it? Looks like La Nina might be heading back our way in a day or two! We're heading up to Revelstoke for 3 days after Xmas and then will follow the snow home over NY, Hopefully northern WA/ID will be getting deluged by then and there will be plenty of choice

Skiing at Silver was sweet today, snowed all day and there is a storm advisory on, looking forward to some great XMAS skiing. No storms Monday, but storms projected for the rest of the week. I love fresh snow and no crowds.

Banff would be fun. I have joined the boycott Sunshine crew, having worked at a ski hill I didn't like the way the firings went down. Have a great time.
Another 3" at Lookout and Silver, trace at 49N and Schweitzer. 1 cm for Red Mtn and none at Whitefish.
Moisture in the forecast all week with a warm up starting Wed.
