Default Living in Canada rocks!!!

Well then, my EX has been out of commission for a while (broken clutch cable)..but just got the new one on and man is that snow ever fun!!!...First year with a quad, I used to ride bikes and they didn't do so well in the snow...anyways, no studs in the tires cuz I wasn't planning on going out in the winter..but I got me some studs in the shed and I'm throwing 'em in tomorrow. A WAHOO!!!!

ditto Nosliw. we've been getting rain, but only 1-2 degrees from being snow. real bummer, cuz snow on the coast always = chaos!!

HOWEVER, the slightest elevations are beautiful right now. my buddy was in Braelorne on Sunday and it snowed OVER 30 INCHES overnight!! WOW. Braelorne is in the mountains, kinda behind Whistler, coastal mountains. maybe 3500' elevation.

hey mudblaster, a friend formerly of Terrace said the Stewart pass used to get huge snow. he said some winters in Terrace they'd be pitching snow uphill from their roof, and Stewart got way more snow than them. I've seen photos from Newfoundland of guys driving between 20-30 banks of snow. it must be awfully freaky when it's like that.

back in 1982 i saw that kind of snow.
but the last 5 to 10 years it has not bin quite like that.
maybe by feb well have a 2 or 3 feet of snow on the ground in the yard.
but whos to say we wont get those big snow falls again.
i was out the day befor yesterday and up in the mountains there was lots.
but its just starting around here in the lower elavations.
only 6 to 8" right now at my place.
