Re: crazy weather


Well Bonnie,
        Aspen is a ski area and the elevation is pretty high. That is why I
was kind of surprised myself. The bears at my elevation 7500 are not
normally due out until Late March. These has been plenty of snow. On area
was claiming 60" . The ski areas are excited.3.1 million skiers since
November.
