While some other Colorado ski-towns complained of rain, our high 9400&#8242; elevation was an advantage. We were hammered with 8 more inches as we skied throughout the day.  The dense snow was difficult to ski on low-angle terrain, but it was fantastic on the steeps.

I couldn&#8217;t have asked for two better runs!  Unfortunately, it was just too fun to take time for pictures \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Upon arriving home, we decided to dig out our cars which were buried under an easy 3-feet of snow.  Perhaps it was all-for-nothing as the blizzard continues to pummel us with endless amounts of snow.  <\/p>\n<p>From NOAA: CONFIDENCE REMAINS HIGH THAT THIS STORM IS AN EPIC AND IT HAS BEEN MANY YEARS THAT A SIMILAR WINTER STORM OF THIS MAGNITUDE HAS STRUCK<br \/>\nTHE WESTERN SLOPE.  MANY MOUNTAIN VILLAGES HAVE BEEN BELOW THE RAIN SNOW LINE&#8230;LIKE ASPEN&#8230;VAIL&#8230;AND TELLURIDE.  CRESTED BUTTE IS ABOVE THE RAIN SNOW LINE AND THE SNOW CONTINUES TO PILE UP AT THAT LOCATION.  EXCEPT FOR A POTENTIAL LULL (AND I DO NOT NECESSARILY MEAN AN ABSOLUTE BREAK&#8230;LULL ONLY MEANS THE SNOWFALL RATES WILL ABATE) ON TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MORNING&#8230;THE SNOW WILL CONTINUE TO POUND THE MOUNTAINS AND IT WILL BE RELENTLESS. <\/p>\n<p>Looks like another pow day  is in store for tomorrow!  <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.avantlink.com\/click.php?tt=ml&amp;ti=54767&amp;pw=29053\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.avantlink.com\/gbi\/10060\/54767\/23393\/29053\/image.jpg\" width=\"728\" height=\"90\" style=\"border: 0px;\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Powder day 3 began with 8 inches of fresh Whistler-like dense powder.
