After a four hour rain delay, the Third Annual Spyder Snow Fest is scheduled to get underway at 4 p.m. Saturday. According to reports from properlyrooted.com bloggers, Mountain High snow blowers began dumping 60 tons of snow on to a three-story high jump after the rain stopped about noon, when the snow jump had been scheduled to open.

Spyder owners Dickie O'Reilly and Dennis Jarvis were all smiles after the rain stopped.
