I have been going to the same ski/fishing area now for 30 something years and things have changed.

As a kid 100 inches on the ski basin and a full lake was the norm.

The lake I loved and at one time 11 miles long, average depth of 40 feet and up to 110 feet in some areas. Today is 4 miles long and averages 10 feet.

The ski basin is sad, and so many dead trees all over the mountain.

seems like it is a scam because the paper reports make it sound so great, but the truth is all the locals are shitting their pants.

They report a 60 inch base, but that it total shit as I saw as many rocks as I did snow an many of the runs.

Hope its just a 10 year phase/cycle or some shit like that.
