CapturedNature Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Another couple months till the first mountain snows...though could come as early as a month from now. I used to love storms in September when I was at Lyndon. Early in the month it would be all rain but subsequent storms would leave the top of Burke Mt white and level would get lower with each storm. Sometimes it was so awesome looking at the white capped mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it was so awesome looking at the white capped mountains.There is nothing more invigorating than that first fall morning where you wake up and look up at the mountain and see white on the upper slopes. Usually after an overnight rain in town so it's all wet with some leaves on the ground and 40F in town. But all night it was 28-32F and snowing above 3000ft.I also love riding an ATV up through the snow line, when you start out at the base and then 15-20 minutes later you are in full winter at the top. The squeak of the snow under the tires and how quiet it all gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwiz Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 The biggest rip off in college....just buy on Amazon then sell after the class, unless you think you'll need the book in the future. Only book I plan on keeping is my two meteorology books and one of my astronomy books. I literally saved like $300 using Amazon...freakingg awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I refuse to buy a book from the store at the school unless I absolutely have to. I look everywhere else, usually starting with chegg or Amazon. Unfortunately, schools are catching on. More and more books are being made as school specific, so you have to purchase for an insane price at the bookstore and then have to sell it back to them because Amazon or some other site won't take it. Textbooks = biggest scam in college Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also try to hold off on buying a book as long as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved waking up to wet leaves and then seeing the whitecapped peaks.Also, the silence of the snow is great. Muffles everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never found a format that I liked. electronic books can be pretty damn cheap, however, I couldn't envision myself liking e-books. I've never used chegg to get books but I used chegg like crazy for help all throughout all the calculus classes and I think for chem II as well. The $15 a month was beyond worth it.

weatherwiz Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 yay got my "Exercises for Weather & Climate book" in the mail! I'm a little upset though...I paid like $30 or something to have my books shipped overnight but apparently they only sent me this one book and my other met book wasn't included in that so I have to wait for that...I thought it would ship them both overnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TauntonBlizzard2013 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 random question, but how many ski resorts usually open up by late November early December? Might be planning a trip up north in that time frame, and I know not all places will be running, regardless of what the weather is like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be planning a trip up north in that time frame, and I know not all places will be running, regardless of what the weather is like a dozen or so depending on the snowmaking weather and capabilities, have had some great Dec 1s and some horrible ones.
