Latest storm leaves 70 centimeters of snow at Aspen/Snowmass

Excerpt from this page:
DEEPcember is over, but the snow has not let up. The latest storm left up to 72 centimeters of snow at Aspen/Snowmass this weekend, and more is on the way tonight. After a record setting December, with 300 centimeters falling at the top of Snowmass, the resort has now received more over five meters (nearly 510 centimeters) since the beginning of October.

We haven’t seen a winter like this in decades,” said Rich Burkley, Vice President, Mountain Operations. “It seems that January is hot on the heels of December already. If this keeps up we’ll be skiing into June.”
