Do you remember the winter of 2001/2002? I remember the winter of 2001/2002. I remember skiing on only 33 inches of snow on January 1st. (There's normally 60 inches of snow by January.)


I remember skiing one day of powder. I remember having to learn how to ride on ice so that I could teach my students how to ride on ice. I even had to teach my students how to fall on ice in a way that wouldn't hurt too much. I remember a 10-foot deep half pipe (puny)--the top three feet were ice.


I went snowshoeing today with my dad. We hiked Skyline Ridge which is located just across the road from Stevens Pass. I was supposed to be having instructor training today. Stevens Pass was supposed to open today. The snow base was absolutely horrible up there. And with a forecast like this (http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/traffic/forecast/defa ult.aspx?zone=WA018#Forecast" title="http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/traffic/forecast/defa ult.aspx?zone=WA018#Forecast" target="_blank"http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/traff...) I'm afraid that this might be just like the winter of 01/02.


I won't be skiing this week. So what should I do this week?
