    I’m on 650s. Same with my icons. Only difference is that my kings are 14” and icons were 13”

    Big bear is dry...

    Mammoth had a decent amount on the hill, but not much around town. The area up the 395 is really cool on a good snow year for some off roading to find springs and such. Last year was awesome.

    The I-70 corridor has some snow, got a decent base for ski/boarding. But overall we haven’t gotten much. I’ll take a picture of the 14’ers outside my house in a bit. They are pretty bare right now

    Kings are ordered. $965 from DSM shipped. Standard length, 650 springs, Micah said they'll be shipped tomorrow most likely, after they get put together.

    Lol mammoth is a straight drive with very clear roads. I've never had issues even in my old BMW.

    Big bear is another story. I wouldn't risk my car in big bear if they actually got a lot of snow.

    Soon enough we will have a truck to haul stuff in though. Just need to see what I can get for the civic.

    This was our first good one for the season. Probably our only one too. Somewhere around a foot or so. Tons of stuck cars that shouldn’t be on the road in the first place

    Do you guys normally get snow around the coastal part of VA? I lived in Virginia for a year as a kid, I remember us getting snow, but it was like half a foot or so at most.

    At least you got some snow, down here it's just been miserably cold for Alabama...

    Usually one good snow a year as of recently. Growing up, it used to snow once every couple years but it’s been a solid foot at least once every year for the past 5 or so

    Also, what part of Alabama are you in? I'm (hopefully) headed to Birmingham tomorrow morning. Flight was cancelled today.
