Over the past 5 days, Lake Tahoe ski resorts picked up about 6.5 FEET of snow. Mammoth Mountain was buried under 162 inches (13.5 FEET) of snow during the same time period. As of today (Dec. 21, 2010 and first day of winter), the Kirkwood ski area near Lake Tahoe has received 24.4 FEET of snow so far this season. (Welcome to the Storm King and Mic Mac Media Publishing)
Oh please dont even try to start with me, New York and Michigan doesnt get as much snow as Colorado thats for sure buddy, hahah what the hell are you thinking of.. and uhhh who cares dood there just pictures, albuquerque gets wayyy more snow that that. Chama New Mexico broke a record this year 6 feet of snow in less than 24 hours.. so you dont have ****! its in yer head just to start an arguement..just like most of the users on this thread.
Dude, the UP of MI gets over 400 inches of snow a year.
[SIZE=3]A quick round-up of the resorts indicates impressive totals on the slopes. Squaw Valley has picked up nearly 24 feet since October, and the base depth there is close to 12 feet deep. Skiers and boarders at Alpine Meadows this weekend are ripping powder shots with a base more than 14 feet deep under foot to protect from rocks and trees. Kirkwood Mountain Resort is the Tahoe champ with about 28 feet of snow so far this year. [/SIZE] Mammoth Mountain down south currently has an impressive base 18 feet deep. That resort set a new unofficial record with 208 inches this month alone. That’s more than 17 feet of new snow, which shattered the old December record of 140 inches set in 1971, and is well over three times the December average of 63 inches at that location. Stay safe and ski and ride with care.

Here in Montana it snows between 40 and 400 inches per year depending on elevation. Most of the population lives in areas that get between 40" and 120".
