Vail, Colorado Daily Photo - Significant Snow Blesses he Vail Valley

Over 8" of snow has fallen on Vail Mountain over the last 24 hour period.  While skiing has been very good on limited terraine over the last month, there has been a definite lack of the white stuff.   This nice dump has brought smiles to the faces of locals and visitors alike!  Further adding to valley grins is an improved jet stream flow and a nice line of Pacific storms that are forecast to track through the area over the next few days with a really big storm promised for the weekend.  We have just heard that Vail Resorts will be announcing the opening of portions of the back bowls - hopefully tomorrow morning.  Things are definitely looking up!

The real estate market here in the Valley is also showing some terrific improvement.  December numbers, just out from Slifer Smith and Frampton show total unit sales for November and December exceeding those of the same months in 2007 - our biggest sales year on record.
