Oh my god I want one right now. My childhood dream of building a snow fortress by flamethrowering tunnels through 20 foot deep snow comes closer and closer to fruition...

My old roommate used to set snow on fire with gasoline. I believe he now works for a large investment firm. ;-)

Does it snow where you are in NM?
Yes! It's not Boston-level, though. I think I would have to move to Maine or Alaska to realize my dream. Or maybe Minnesota or upstate New York.

The only snow around here in SoCal is some stupid ski resort up in the mountains that every lemming and his mother flocks to.  Imagine how they fit in all those millions of trendy lemmings.
