Jan. 31st:
8'' last night and still snowing!!! I don't know what to say, this
is a crazy big snow year. East winds are good today but I am not sure
that you can get up to the camas valley. The snow is drifting badly.


Jan.30th: 8'' more last night, and still snowing on and off. Good west
winds to day 15-25 mph. Conditions are insanely good. Tomorrow looks
like another super stormy day. Noaa is predicting 5-9'' more.  Winds are
going to change from easterlies to westerlies mid-day. Ride the storm out!
 

Jan.29th: 10'' more yesterday!!! I can't believe this snow season! It is like
nothing i have ever seeing. Sure makes you wonder about global
warming. Today is strong East winds, but visibility is crap.

Jan. 28th: Snowing like crazy! 6'' last night, and going strong. Coverage
is endless and this point. Kite anywhere you want, only the tallest of
bushes are visible.  

Jan.27th: Really nice day for East winds 15-22 mph. lightly snowing.  

Jan. 22nd: Light west winds today. We will call it a rest day. Check out the
new video. All clips were shot in January.

Jan. 21th: Decent West winds again today. 9-16 mph and we are hoping
for more snow.

Jan. 20th: Really nice day up in the Camas. West winds 11-18 mph. The
temp was 20 degrees, and skies were blue. 4'' inches of new snow over
night. The coverage is great, and so is the snow conditions. Lots of riders
today.
Jan. 19th: Not much was happening today. Light East winds were working
at last resort ridge line.

meter weather for sure. This week has been the best i have every
witnessed.

@20 gusting 25 mph. Take your warm gear and go get it!

Jan 16th: Yesterday day was awesome! The snow base has firmed up,
and coverage is really good. Today looks like light West winds, but i bet
you could find some wind up there. Tomorrow looks pretty good for West
winds, but cold -16 over night in Fairfield, with a high tomorrow of 16
degrees.

Jan 15th: Gusting NW @ 41 mph this morning at 4:00 am. It has backed
off thankfully. 11:00am NW 24-30 mph, blue sky, and good snow.

NW winds But it could easily be a perfect day as well.

much of it. Tuesday looks really really good!!!! Go up if you can cause it is
going to be little kite weather.

Jan 13th: Winds were none existent until 2:30pm and then it blew NW @
14 mph for an hour and a half. Hawki was the only guy that i heard went
up. Monday looks like strong winds out of the SE, we will see if it fills in
the Camas.  

Jan 12th: Seems like today is a bust! No real wind to speak of. A group is
headed up to the Snowpark to build some kickers, and ride sleds.
Tomorrow looks better then today but not a sure thing.

Jan 11th: Today was really strong west winds(26-33mph). This was an
awesome day up in the Camas. Monty and Charlie explored yet another
new area. With the snow this good, people keep spreading out and
exploring.

Jan 10th: Classic S.E. wind story today. It's blowin E.S.E. @ 25mph in
Mountain Home and Boise, but  the camas is Calm. It is currently snowing.
We hope to get 6''-8'' inches today and to night. Today is a rest day!
Weekend looks marginal so far, but that can easily turn around.

Jan 9th: Strong west winds (27-35mph) all morning. Snow is waist deep
right now. Once this new snow packs down it will be so much better.  9
guys rode the south side of Double Barrel. Monty explored a new area

had to bail on it. By far the deepest snow i have ever kited in!!!
