Part of the fun of being a skier is becoming familiar with snow in all of its wonderful, and less-than-wonderful forms. The Eskimos are said to have 32 words for snow, or something like that. Skiers must have hundreds! We've started a list of names for snow - up to 48 so far. Can you add any others?? Ball Bearings
