High ski season 1979 some of the ski lifts in Colorado had to close - not because of a lack of snow - because of a surfiet. The lifts were burried. The roads to the lodges were unplowable because the banks were higher than the blowers could throw...   BOINC WIKI ID: 1299632 · |

For our local ski hill it was a great season. They opened in early October and closed in mid May - due to lack of interest rather than lack of snow. BOINC WIKI ID: 1299636 · |

The Ski resorts in the local mountains would love that season, lots of money to be made from people wanting to ski that are from the LA, OC, SB and Riverside county areas...

Looking forwards to snow, and some fell in the West Country. Just black ice here, and a few vehicles in the ditch ... It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues
