This winter sucks!

Maybe it's just because I am bummed about not having an real snow, no hangover run or just the fact I have not been up in the mountains in sometime.... I started looking at the Mt Rainer site to make myself feel better and there it is, just as bad there! First thing I noticed is that the snow area at Paradise is only at 59% of the average snow and it is closed! http://www.nps.gov/mora/parknews/delaye ... pening.htm There is a 5' requirement to protect the meadows and there was a skimpy 38" on Dec 18th.
I hope we get a few good storms early into next year so we can salvage this winter, but the one thing that really hits home with me is that I need to get out more when there is snow because there is no guarantee. (that said it's just a down year so far)
