"There's no "ah" in Poncho." Ah so.

Took a trip to Mt. Rose on thursday. only 2 inches of new. Dust on hard pack. But it still worked.
Some of the Chutes were open, but..."a fall will result in an uncontrolled slide" . Um, old guys need not apply?
My namesake was groomed. All smiles for WZ.





They were having Nevada State H.S. skiing races. Those kids can race !
Skiing on the Sunrise Bowl.

Living vicariously thru Mammoth-Mt. Rose-Northstar web cams....

Next time, Duke, you need to come down further south of Mammoth to see some real mountains. Those little piss ant hills up there in Mono ain't nothin' compared to what we have south of Toms Place. These mountains down here are too dang big for a ski area and too wicked, too. Nerves of iron, fingers of steel, it is the type of place where CJK gets real.

Made a trip to Northstar. Fresh snow about a foot. Snowed light to medium all day. Very nice, big fun.

Anything good in the trees off of Backside Express?

[windyscotty]

I don't know, but I did see Jessica Vilchis up at Squaw this morning. Things were looking good up there and so was Jessica.

Anything good in the trees off of Backside Express?

No. There is nothing good in the trees off the Backside................................. (yes).

[Washoe Zephyr]

UCD very good..........

Actually, I did ski lower Monument Glade ( between Railsplitter and Burnout). the trees are better spaced for me there...

Just to the right of this picture.


I think Lookout Mtn had the best snow....Martis, Washoe and Prosser were good.

Must google Jessica Vilchis ...

[windyscotty]

Jessica Vilchis is a hostess for Channel 4 in LA. She does a lot of promotional stuff for them and is often seen at various ski areas around the state, including Mammoth. Should you happen to see her out there, be sure to stop and say hello.

On my way down to fish at Topaz Lake, I stopped at Rose. lots of fresh snow hounds and a full parking lot on the Slide Bowl Side.(Main lot was full too). The crowds cleared after lunch,smooth sailing from there. It was a good day.

[Washoe Zephyr]

I forgot the sunscreen, and have a nice looking goggle burn from my last Tahoe foray.

UCD indeed.....Heavenly was bright sunshine and warm. The bottom at Boulder Lodge was soft at 13:00.
Lots of spf 30 for this skier.
