The snow is on it's way!

I have been trying my hardest to keep the climbing shoes on but it is difficult this time of the year in Washington. It seems every trip is thwarted by rain and/or snow. I guess it is time to put away the summer rock shoes and break out the snowboard boots. Mt. Baker opens on thursday, Whistler and Blackcomb are already open with a 40 inch base! Hopefully Stevens Pass will soon follow with cold temps. and big storms on the way.
I have heard that some ice is forming in Icicle Creek Canyon and with these cold temps I am sure it is only getting better. I'm pretty excited to swing my tools and strap on my board! Cheers to a new season and pray for cold and lots of snow!
