First snow of 2007: Spotted!
The Denver weather folks just showed snow over the Eisenhower tunnel, up at the Continental Divide. Loveland ski area is up there, but I don’t think they’ve started the lifts. I may check their website just to be sure. Has anyone notified Copper Mountain Ski Resort?! I’d like to think there is a crack team of lift operators scanning the horizon for snow, their hands poised upon a giant power lever. At the first hint of a snowflake, they pull the lever when sounds a horn and starts the lift. If I ran a ski resort, that’s exactly how it would work.
Anyway, the snow dance is working. Despite protests from neighbors with small children. And good taste.
