Snow Level 5000 ft

Latest forecast for Friday for MRNP shows snow level for Friday at 5,000 ft <br>Sorry but I can't help getting excited. <br>You know you are obsessed when checking on snow levels is the first thing you do every morning.<br>Maybe October turns on freshies up high at Muir on Saturday.?<br>Praise Ullr

Hmm... this pattern looks very familiar - Warm temps and heavy precip, followed by cold front with only a little precip.

No , No .I refuse to believe it. &gt;<br>There will be snow on Friday and freshies on Saturday!<br>There must be, I can't take it anymore!!!

I say amen to any thoughts of fresh snow.<br><br>Another year like this past one is likely to turn us all into a bunch of blouse-wearing poodle walkers, or at least a bunch of croquet-playing mint munchers.<br><br>(preceding lines courtesy of Scotsman's fellow countryman "Groundskeeper Willie")

I doubt any of us will start walking poodles or playing croquet....but a few more of ya might go out and buy surfboards to get you through the late summer.<br><br>I was just reading an article that mentioned Mt.Baker's earliest opening date...the lifts started running on October 10th back in 1968....damn. <br><br>Hopefully it won't be long now before we start to get some accumulation up high.

<br>I was just reading an article that mentioned Mt.Baker's earliest opening date...the lifts started running on October 10th back in 1968....damn.   <br>

<br><br>Wow! I had no idea they had ever opened that early! However, I have a memory of skiing Baker in early Nov one year. I think it was Nov 2, in maybe '94 (?). Can anyone back me up on this?
