Nice pics! The wall ride on the frozen planks looks slippery. I am sitting here in CA bay area and it's like 70 degrees right now, so I feel your pain. Take a trip to the Bay area, there's lots of riding out here. It's kinda ironic cause I want to go to the snow!

I XC ski, not nearly as exciting as dh or freeriding on a bike but it passes the time. And not to mention the skiing can be done without a single penny dropped except equipment or gas. MUCH cheaper to do than dh skiing because you dont need any tickets. Nothing beats the fresh shimmering powder under the moonlight at night in the wintertime.

That is what I do but there is plenty of cool stuff to do inside/out putting new parts on the bike, woodworking, remodeling, get a magazine subscription to a bike mag, videogaming, shovel your entire backyard, jump off your roof into a snowbank, hibernate, work out, tinker with stuff. Just find some random thing to do or take up for the next 2 months or so. BTW it was -15F here last night without windchill, I love it when people are complaining about it being cold (40F) :D of course Upstate NY has nothing on Canada or Siberia in terms of coldness o_O

oh yeah, i snowboard too. do a lot of back country hiking. it is a good time, love it, but nothing like a sled on that epic day. don't do much of any resort boarding. we only have one, too many people, don't like standing in line, so on and so forth. plus i'd rather save the money for gas in the sled.
