holy smokes that's a lot of snow! Now I know why everything is steep angle A frame construction. No flat roofs out there I bet.

So what elevation are you at there.? That is a crazy amount of snow, even by BC standards.

9,000'. About 15 miles NW of Gunnison, CO.

Further north and west of us, at 10,000', is an old mining townsite called Irwin. They'll get 600" a year up there, while at Crested Butte ski area, 8 miles away, they'll get 300-350". It's nuts!!

Checked the forecast and another 3-4' is predicted by Wednesday. So, no, I don't think winter is over and thus, I cannot be declared the winner.
