Really? Honestly this is the first time I have seen the term on a ski map. I googled to learn what it even meant and ended up at the article about fences built from stakes first, then later cliffs.
I have never skied Squaw/Palisades so can't really opine on the 'right name' since I don't know the flavor of the place. Looking at the trail map, the Palisades are near the peak of 'Squaw Mt' so the name makes sense from that perspective. Is Squaw Mt being renamed 'Palisades'? When does that committee meet?
Talking about whether the palisades at Palisades are open is going to be awkward.
Particularly when you'll have to clarify whether you mean PaliFKAS palisades or PaliAlpy palisades....
Certainly if I was Vail I'd be having some SEO fun with the Kweed Palisades as best Palisades in Tahoe right now
