Well it had to happen. This morning we awoke to 12 inches of new snow and the snow still coming down. This could be the biggest snowfall in several years. Forecast calls for a total of 25-30 inches before it stops. I took Benny out for his morning walk and almost lost him in the snow. The roads and parking lot hadn't been plowed yet so it was all POWER. Later in the morning the parking lot plow came by and plowed me in. I wasn't fast enough to get there and move it.

With snow still coming down at lunch time, we decided to go to Keystone and try out our Power Skiing skills. The path way at the Mountain house was blocked with mounds of snow waiting to be removed. As we took the lift to the top, we agreed to only stay on green trails. As we skied down, the snow covered our skis and booths. The skiing is far different than plain old downhill skiing. We lasted about 1 hour and then home and then to the Dam Brewery.

At 7:30pm, it is still snowing with about 20 inches of snow on the ground. Can't wait until tomorrow morning to see how much accumulated overnight.
