Dude,

You need to come to Utah. "Greatest Snow on Earth". It must be true...it's on our license plates!

Alberta/BC also have some nice powder but with my luck, I've only been there in July/August. I guess I'll take my bumps and bruises this winter and see about flying out west for the next riding season.

Randy -

Correcto Mundo! or whatever the expression is...

The backcountry maniacs can't stop talking about Utah powder... too bad I haven't been able to sample it yet myself... One day, one day...

Y'all are crazy... why would anyone want to be cold on purpose?

That's the beauty of it, Bill.. Once you start riding, the warm clothes and the exercise keep you extra-warm. I usually bring extra shirts and bandanas b/c I sweat so much.

Hey Bill,

Believe it or not, I've seen quite a few older guys on the snowboards. They've even got a name for them:

Grays on trays.

My buddy Eric's thinking of hitting QC or North ON this weekend and I'm tempted to say yes if they have a reasonable number of trails open and it's not too warm (above -1C/30F).
