The snow god is watching over Breckenridge.

He sits in the middle of town, playing his magic pan flute to fill the air with snow.

As you can see, he is a kind and generous god.

That?s him in the late hours of Groundhog Day, 2006.

Hey, I can try, can?t I?

What if it happens? What if it already happened?

It did happen!

Today is yesterday and so was tomorrow.

I can already remember what it?ll be like.

And so can Eddie.

He and his wife will pick me up, and she?ll drop us off at the base of Peak Nine

He?ll be on something - atomic sugar daddies.

Not the nuclear sweet treats, but a blast-right-through-it kind of powder skis.

And I?ll pick a fine first day to be on a brand new pair of volkl<umlaut> exlplosivs, which will feel very similar to the cmh version, but with a seemingly extra kick in deep powder. It was either that or the especially light nature of the snow - I can?t foretell - but they?re gonna be so damn fast, it was downright scary.

Hydroplaning while practically in a tuck position. I look forward to the rush.

And the rush.

And it?s gonna be cooold out there today.

It?s cold out there every day.

I got you, babe.
 
I wonder if he'll regret his trip next week if conditions continue like that at home. This year has a shot at some of the records of 1983-84 and 1995-96 in Summit County if it keeps up.
