Boise, you weren't wrong. When my wife and were out here in July getting a feel for the area, a lot of people who live here said that Boise doesn't really get a lot of snow, and looking at the forecast it sure looks that way.

I hope that's not the case for those businesses that depend on the snow for winter recreation.
