    Default Freakin Wind....

    It is blowing so hard that I-70 and Berthoud Pass are closed....so I have now lost one day on the mountain...I hope it opens soon...I was looking forward to a few days of snowboarding....

    Thanks, but I am going to wait until after they do their avalanche blasting...otherwise it could be a rough hike

    I think anywhere from 50-70 mph gusts which with snow powder can make for some interesting conditions and avalanche issues....
