    Just in case anyone is wondering, US 212 in NW Wyoming is currently closed due to 4 ft of fresh snow on Bear Tooth Pass, reopening is currently unknown

    Could they possibly been in a warehouse too long (age) or exposed in an environment before purchased. Seems like "matching" cause and effect, probably same source.

    Google maps shows a "summer" ski area down the road, so makes me wonder just how common this is. I'm unfamiliar with that area.

    Was there the other day, at midnight the temp was 95. Don’t want to know feel like. Then in the day it was hot, way too #### hot. Even in shade with a breeze.

    THE TRUCK HAS STOPPED!!!!!!

    Stopped at an indigenous Love's with 38 minutes left, after making our first delivery.

    This type of performance is only due to SUPERIOR FELINE OPERATION MANAGEMENT
    OR
    SFOM.

    The OM is pleased.

    Established in the mid-1960’s by Austrians Pepi Gramshammer, Eric Sailer and Anderl Molterer as an Alpine Ski Racing summer training ground. Beartooth Basin (formerly: The Red Lodge International Ski and Snowboard Camp) is one of North America’s oldest alpine ski training areas. As the previous owners aged, they found themselves bowing out to a younger generation of skiing enthusiasts who looked to open the area to the public and not just the private groups and teams as had been tradition in the past. The newer ownership group has changed a bit over the years and is now majority controlled by the team listed below. The ski area is staffed with professional ski patrol and and lift attendants just as any other ski area, but with a summer like setting above 10,000 feet that can sometimes turn to winter at a moments notice. Please note, there is no lodge or warming hut facilities. You could call it backcountry skiing with a lift.
