Awesome! Are you right at the north end of Harrison lake? What is the elevation there?

It's been fairly chilly here all day. Colder than what i thot it would be.. cooler than forecast as well with snow not that far up in the air.
January 2025 incoming..looks like more Pineapples..Happy New Year! :think:

I often detour and drive over Catnip Hill on chilly days. 6c at bottom of hill. 4c on top :shock:
Likely the snow line was not far above you. Nice snow area :thumbup:

The models handled the alignment of the AR event well from days ago. I was hoping the line wouldn't move north, as this would result in poor snow totals at my cabin. As it is, this is an amazing set up. AB aimed spot on :arrow: :wsnow: :wsnow: :wsnow: :wsnow:
Hey i'd rather enjoy the snow here with all my buttees, but we all know that snow here is sometimes like dreaming..like this year with my 0.5cms :thumbdown:

I am about half way between the north end of Harrison and the south end of Lillooet Lake. Right over the mountains east of Squamish. Elevation is pretty low here in the valley bottom maybe a couple hundred feet.
