Fritz Renner, who just walked in claimed &quot;pow day&quot; and &quot;knee-deep&quot; off the side of the trail, but clarified that it was pretty scratchy everywhere else.</p> <p>We are hoping that Squaw will have some worthwhile skiing for us by Wednsday. &nbsp;Until then this reporter bids you adieu.</p> Amar Bains 2008-12-16T00:06:16Z
