Lawgoddess,
My comments were based on 30 years of skiing at Crystal Mountain and the information (cam/snow depth) provided by the web site. You are obviously enthusiastic about skiing right now and that's great. However I think my descriptions of the conditions are acurate and something to seriously consider if someone has to pay full price for a lift ticket.
I am starting to get annoyed with your talk.
Ya know you come hear to our state with your Texas/Okie attitudes, and you think just cause you work for Jim Nelson you can start telling folks who have spent their whole life skiing and climbing in the Cascades stuff.
