All time record snowfall 2011 in Oregon and California unfortunately for EPA global warming profiteers

5/8/11, "It's endless winter at Mt. Bachelor with record snowfall into May," The Oregonian

"It's a sunny Friday afternoon in late April.... I've just discovered a fun string of little moguls while skiing on the northwest side of Mount Bachelor.

By this time of year, most right-thinking people have forgotten about snow. But 22 miles outside of Bend, Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort recently surpassed its

• all-time record for seasonal snowfall,

which was 606 inches. At press time, the current total stands at 633 inches -- and counting. Compare that with the average snowfall: 387 inches. (That's the running total for the season; the actual snowpack at mid-mountain was around 180 inches late last week.)"...

"Record snowfall at California ski resorts

"Seasonal snowfall records have been set at some California ski resorts, including Squaw Valley USA near the north shore of Lake Tahoe, Heavenly Mountain Resort on the lake's south side and Mammoth Mountain, the sprawling eastern Sierra resort that attracts Southern California skiers and snowboarders.

More than 61 feet of snow has fallen in the 400-mile-long Sierra Nevada this season, second only to the 1950-51 season when 65 feet fell, according to California Department of Transportation records. Although spring has arrived, the Sierra typically gets some snow in April,

• bringing the prospect of an all-time record.

At Squaw Valley, home of the 1960 Winter Olympics, ski patrol guides had to create tunnels just to reach their warming huts, and avalanches broke out windows at two lift stations. Nearly 59 feet of snow has fallen there this winter,

• beating the old record by 29 inches.

Squaw is extending its season through Memorial Day, while Mammoth, with a peak elevation exceeding 11,000 feet, might remain open

• through Fourth of July."
