With snow this early in October, is it possible to hope for another winter like this one?

It’s strange to see snow on the ground when the fall foliage is still showcasing it’s dramatic colors.  After a season that did everything to deflate our ski stoke, we’re ready for one that will put us on cloud nine.  The early snow fall is just adding fuel to the fire.  You know the race has started when the resorts have turned on their snow guns, from that point it’s just a matter of weeks till you can make your first turns.  We all need some time on the snow, to connect with ourselves and nature, to engage in meditation in motion, we yearn for the mental tranquility and the exhiliration that comes with each turn we make.  The mountain alone is such a good educator, it provides the right amount of challenge to test our strength and grow, patience and respect come about almost instinctively.
