Hey Raym the latest weather has brought lots of snow to the North Island. The temp. is dropping also so should become pretty stable in the next couple days. http://www.islandavalanchebulletin.com/
Where abouts are you on the Island?

I'm just waiting for my family to wake up today so that we can hit the slopes for the New Year

Would much rather be out but killing time here on the forum is the next best thing :)

Oh yeah, we got some inches in the PNW

Cheers
Ivo

Colorado is in a sad situation too. Front Range sucks. Sounds like the boys in Wolf Creek were doing ok for a bit.
Think snow everyone!

Last week was siiiiick north island Ray :)

This week looks like it could go either way, depending what the freezing levels do... but the snowpack is well built up in the mountains for sure now

nope. i used to get all bent out of shape after pinning all my hopes on winter. the let down is worse than a 3 day coke binge with charlie sheen.
there's too much fun stuff in the world. i'm either going fishing or mountain biking this weekend. i love having options.

I was fortunate to get a few days in early-season, but this is killing me! Tasty waves these last few weeks has helped for sure...
