Let's get this straight. It's May 2. Springtime, right?

Sort of. Snowbird, Utah got hit on May 1 by 18 inches of new snow, and Bryce Roberts (O'Reilly Alpha Tech Ventures), Fabrizio Capobianco (Funambol), and I just had to try it out.

Verdict? Heaven. Check out some shots from the day below.

Last year (or was it the year before?) we were skiing until July. I think this year will be the same. It's one of the top-three snow years in the history of recorded snowfall in Utah.
