Baller cougfan Posted April 17, 2021 Author Baller Share Posted April 17, 2021 @Rednucleus WOW! Will wonders never cease! I thought you would be the last member of the Wednesday night crew to ditch the dry suit being the cold blooded person you are. I am really impressed. Did you pay Gordon extra to turn in the heater on?☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller RAWSki Posted April 17, 2021 Baller Share Posted April 17, 2021 @Rednucleus you beat @MISkier out of the drysuit by at least 2 months! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ MISkier Posted April 17, 2021 Baller_ Share Posted April 17, 2021 Maybe 3 months. Last night was 56 air and 51 water and I was cold in the O'Neill Assault hybrid (backup suit - the Bare baggy needs a wrist seal repair again). I think we will see the water back into the mid 40s and maybe low 40s by the end of next week. One forecast says 2.5" of snow on Wednesday morning. I don't see it turning positive for a while. The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller pregom Posted April 18, 2021 Baller Share Posted April 18, 2021 Perfect skiing weather, @ALPJr! I mean, snow skiing weather! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller OREGON85 Posted April 18, 2021 Baller Share Posted April 18, 2021 This time of year I am more concerned about wood floating on the water than the temperature. Lots of trees where we are. During the winter trees and branches look fall into the rivers and get washed into the reservoirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BrennanKMN Posted April 18, 2021 Baller Share Posted April 18, 2021 Got the course put in 4/3, the earliest date for us. But have't been able to ski until 4/15 due to ski partners, snow, and COVID. I have been fortunate to get out 3 times since then, and boy is my body feeling it. Still a very early season for us in metro MN. Just wish I could have skied before Easter, that is always a fun record to break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller OldGuysRule Posted April 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted April 26, 2021 April is about done! Recovered from the snow on Wednesday but I think it cooled the water off to 58 degrees!

Members OTF Posted April 30, 2021 Members Share Posted April 30, 2021 @OTF is out for the season, high speed snowboard related incident claimed the left shoulder and PT was a pipe dream but I attempted it anyway. Headed into surgery and a summer filled with watching others have fun from the deck I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller BrennanKMN Posted April 22, 2022 Baller Share Posted April 22, 2022 Between the rain, the wind and the snow we've had maybe 2 skiable days in April here. Most of the northern half of the state still has ice on the lakes. Thankfully, I was able to get the course in for the season last night, but ran out of daylight to ski with. Hopefully I can make something happen before May... Course went in April 2nd last year, 3 weeks earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
