    Sugarbush skier goes west

    Just entered into Lake Tahoe. A good 8-12 inches on Mt Rose Pass. Since I am away it usually dumps at some point at the Bush. So forget what the weather man says and come ski.....

    Glad to hear Tahoe is finally getting some snow....looks like many resorts out there have had a very tough start for the ski season as well. You must be some sort of snow charm. Please make it our turn at your earliest convenience

    steep

    Had some fine powder runs at the bginning of the trip. But it's been several days since the last storm. The best part has been the extreem steeps. Kirkwood was fun yesturday as was the back bowl at Alpine Meadows. Looks like you all are finally getting snow....fill in the trees.

    I don't think you have a good picture of what has happened, here. We're talking fill in Downspout.


    But today did help some... Now, if we can get tonight to help out...

    and I- I took the one less traveled by,


    And that has made all the difference.

    Alta-Bird doing just fine

    Please excuse my buddy Howie, he's a bit funny in the head. Somehow he's unclear what Alta's 57" base depth & season-to-date snowfall of 159" means. True, they've only just got some decent snows late last week after a 10 day 'dry' spell. But I'd kill for just a fraction of those totals at our beloved S'bush.

    Anyway, I get the fun job of introducing Howie to Alta-Bird land later this month...if he's still cranky I'll ditch him well off of skiers left off the Supreme chair at Alta. He can then spend rest of Winter thawing out with the bear...and with no cigarettes.
    No mountain too steep
    No powder too deep

    (well, not exactly)

    This weather has made me crazed for snow. Not to jinx us but I want like 5 feet.
    Besides, you'll be lucky if you can get your boots on. Back boy!

    Castle Rock one Better

    Went to Sierra at Tahoe ski area and found a trail under their highest lift to be filled with rocks or should I say boulders. Gives Castlerock a run for it's money!


    Steep too! What do you think?
