  1. Buddy bohemia hasnt even gotten 200 inches of snow on the season tell me how they have a 200in SNOWPACK

  2. Big Powderhorn Michigan 150in, Mount Bohemia, Michigan 201in. Since Ya’ll forgot about the Midwest.

  3. *face palm*
    It is a list of snowfall statistics. Data. Numbers. Maybe a couple pics. It is not an opinion piece. The author does not simply choose locations on a whim. Next time, direct your complaint to Mother Nature.

  4. Mammoth definitely does not have a 105″ base. They have a 57″ base. Very easy to see on their snow report

Got an opinion? Let us know...
