You'll.

Not sure that is a good thing.

Enjoyed closing out Alpine today. Liftie told me I was the first up on Scott today. Lakeview has great spring corn around noon. A couple hours at Squaw tomorrow and then back down the hill to start taking in all the season lease gear returns.

Hope to see some of you tomorrow.

Sorry I couldn't make it! We had to get back to the Bay early today, so I was only able to squeeze in about 1.5 hours at Squaw this morning before heading out.

+1 I visited the https://tahoexc.org saturday afternoon to research summer mountain biking. Lot's of snow still left on the ground.
One memory says they'll be open for XC as long as snow is on the ground. Another memory says they're closing May 5th.
Either way, next weekend should be fine.

Tahoe XC is open 8:30-5 daily until May 1, then possibly re-open for Cinco de Mayo.

Andy at Mt. Rose today. Snow was oh so good.

 

[Andy Mink]

@Philpug and I went up for a little midday fun at Rose today. Beautiful clear day. Pretty much everything was softening. We found the best snow off the traverse from the bottom of Upper Silver Dollar to Sunrise bowl. Beautiful, creamy stuff.

Probably one of the best spring corn harvests this season thus far out at Squaw today. Froze just enough and by 10:30 things were popping. Little hike to broken arrow yielded total creamy goodness, surprisingly still holding good coverage. KT was a little firm first thing but by noon was pretty much soft on all aspects. Oly>east alternate was the winner of the day so lapped that about 1/2 a dozen times.

Shut down N* yesterday afternoon. White rabbit laps on closing day was a sweet bonus. Although starting to look a little dirty there was still better coverage than we see mid season most years. Definately the most consistent tree skiing I've ever seen through the entirety of the season.

East side goodness

Tower 16 and headwall lookin fat

I was thinking about Tower 16 but then got distracted by a 10am phone call.
