Looks like next weekend should be pretty good!

You can hit 4444' on the point-click system.

Im heading into the raging manmade blizzard up there tomorrow

Mr. Makers, I tried clicking all over the place to find a higher elevation F-cast but couldn't do it! How did you find it?!?

Snowmaker,
What is the "point-click" system, and how do you access and use it? Why is the web site I referenced showing slightly different data tan the one you referenced? How can you tell the altitude for the forecast?
Thanks....and think (and make) snow!!!

You must have bad aim. I hit it on the first shot!

Click just below the "k" in Slaty Fork.

Si Senor.

Right below the K.

I must admit, I am a weather guru (Its actually my career of passion). I spend alot of time on that site. Ive gotten to 4590' before, but not over Snowshoe. It was SW of Snowshoe.


All aside, Me and my friend will be up there tomorrow. Im riding a '06 Burton Retro Twin if anyone will be up there. Not that youll be able to see, anyway. Deffinately will be a day to not forget the goggles.

If anybody has a Mac with OS X 10.3.9 or higher, I wrote a weather program where you can plug in the latitude and longitude to get a direct point forecast:

You can get the lat/lon of choice from Google Earth (I use 38.405, -79.990 for Snowshoe). Scott is using the same data feed for his point forecasts on DCSki now.
