    Okay this is mainly for the states that plan on seeing at least a couple feet at there front door this winter but... Im so STOKED for this winter :D Winter is where i make my cash! i plow overnight on snowy nights with my ATV with a plow and i get 30 bucks an hour, I try to work at least all night which can range from 8-12 hour shifts.

    Cant forget that the resorts open up, SNOWBOARDING! cant wait to hit up whistler this season.

    Anybody stoked about the season change?!

    Kind of hoping to be able to put around 3-4K in savings from this winter and get a house and put up a big chunk for Down Payment.

    So... SNOW SNOW SNOW!!!! COME TO US COLORADO PEEPS.

    I recently made a trip from 110 degree weather in Afghanistan to about 65 degrees in Kyrgyzstan. I gotta say, that chilly air felt pretty nice. :oldglory:

    The past couple nights here have been in the low 60's and it's been a nice change walking out the door at 5am. You don't immediately feel sticky. Crisp is a good word.

    We've had a night in the 20's here and I cannot wait for the snow to fly! My favorite season!! I love all things snow but most of all skiing!

    Happy skiing/boarding this winter everyone!

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    Mixed feelings, gonna miss trail riding my quad and camping but other than that not much. I hate anything above 75 and it has been nice that autumn is coming, been dipping down into the 40s at night. Hoping we get a nice fall this year, one that lasts into November at least. It varies though, one year it started snowing labor day weekend and didn't get nice again until late April, that was a long winter I tell you what!

    Iowa isn't supposed to get crap for snow this winter. I was thinking I need new tires beforehand, but I might pass.

    I am excited about winter too! Planning to spend a lot of time snowboarding and probably driving to Colorado. I lived there for a few years. Miss it.

    :bananadance: snowboarding and snow wheeling and no more being drenched in sweat at work! I kinda hope we get another blizzard, 30" from one storm last winter was awesome! Minus the hours of shoveling and days without power, and roads not being cleared for over a week lol. I still loved it.

    utah is such a boring state, Whistler you can usually find hyped up boardrooms with awesome latenight partys constantly!

    I think Whistlers snow was more powder'e lol colorados snow tends to pack and ice faster for some reason...?

    This is 1,000,000 % correct ^

    Anyone that has spent anytime at both will tell you this hands down. I like Whistler and its huge but Alta and Snowbird are the best... CO doesn't compare in terrain to UT or WY though.

    I meant to say that Alta and Snowbird suck and nobody should go there ever... Especially when they get snow. Just stay away:D

    If someone can guess where and what trail my profile pic is from I'll send you a free lighted 4x4 switch by rcbs204!! I've been trying to think of a cool way to give it away.
