Next week, if it hits
If I stopped at the bottom to take a photo of my work I'd have to skate to get off the flat. Suffice it to say when there is significant fresh snow you don't want to ski this little tilt of Earth.Andy, like stopping to take a picture first before skiing down such smooth soft low gradient slopes like that. Then at bottom stop a second time to photo the result! So somewhat landscape dependent one needs to figure out a fall line looking down where a view back up works. As a smiling energetic lightweight creature, such pristine canvasses are where I can record my fun without Elmo's embarrassing crater.
I have skied that line - there are so many like that all over the mountain - just need to look for them - which few people do - meaning more for us!What I hope is in all our near futures as we have suffered too much to this point for acceptable mental health.

That is awesome!!Happy New Year SkiTalk friends. May every day be a beautiful day!
Sounds like we didn't miss anything. Mist at Squaw, wind & flat light at Rose. It was a good day to do 4th quarter expense reports.The day at Squaw turned out to be more miserable than I expected. Mist in the morning, drizzle by midday. The snowpack is getting hammered, hopefully it will be cold enough this coming week for the precipitation to fall as snow.
Looks like the exact conditions as Sierra today..The day at Squaw turned out to be more miserable than I expected. Mist in the morning, drizzle by midday. The snowpack is getting hammered, hopefully it will be cold enough this coming week for the precipitation to fall as snow.
Well, that makes that decision easier!Mt. Rose pre-emptively closing tomorrow.
Squaw it is.Well, that makes that decision easier!
