California, Oregon, Washington, Wyoming, Nevada, and Colorado have all been getting hefty amounts of early season snowfall and their current snowpacks reflect that. 

It’s only December 4th and we’ve got 11 ski resorts with 30″ of snow on the ground or more.  Sweet.

2015/16 is off to a great start with El Nino forecast to kick in starting in January.  Get out there and make some turns this weekend!
