NOAA Forecast for 10,000 feet.
Looks like some snow is in the forecast into next week! Let’s hope we get some accumulation out of this baby, we need it after the warm temps this past week. The Comedy Festival continues through Sunday with a good mix of music this week as well. Really a little something for everyone! Also, The US Extreme Freeskiing Championships are going on this weekend up in Crested Butte, this event is definitely worth the drive. Check out this video from last years event.

Friday, Feb. 18 – Papadosio w/DVS @ The Llama. $10 @ 10pm. These guys are from Asheville, NC and sound like an experimental, electronica-based jam band.
