First autumn rains down here today ...

Hey Tahoe mags, did it snow up there yet so we can officially call it 11/12? Or maybe just a little bit longer ...

**The Dad** · 09-26-2011, 10:01 AM

When I left Tahoe a little before 4, it wasn't nearly cold enough to think about snow. Hit some precip on the way downhill, though.

**HiGrade1** · 09-26-2011, 01:10 PM

fingers crossed.....

**powdork** · 09-26-2011, 10:42 PM

it was at this time last year i put up my season edit from 2009-10. i was skiing pow on october 4th-6th of last year just afterward. i just put up my 2010-11 season edit, and the forecast is for precip october 1-5. coincidence? i think not.

Don't forget Sushi Pier in South Lake and the original location in Reno. All you can eat.. happy hour 2 for 1 drinks and lunch is $18.95.... pretty good and I'm used to SF sushi.

Now what to spend the $500 I've got coming back to me on...

**RaccoonFace** · 09-27-2011, 08:20 AM

Oh ma gawd!
$439 for squaw and alpine!!!!!!!

Ps I posted this before Un-p. I'm just on the east coast so the time is screwy

okbye

**unpossible** · 09-27-2011, 08:21 AM

I'm on the East Coast as well right now. :P

And to keep this post on topic, while they may not want it, returning AM unfiltered pass holders are the big winners with this deal.

**Marhankins** · 09-27-2011, 08:35 AM

Alpine Meadows, Kirkwood, Homewood, AND Squaw Valley. Holy crap!

**Charlie Don't Surf** · 09-27-2011, 08:51 AM

Bought the college Alpine/Kirkwood pass last night- went to bed- woke up with Alpine/Krikwood/Squaw.

You would have to buy the Tahoe Super College pass in order to get Alpine/Squaw. Check out the season pass navigator. http://www.squaw.com/season-pass

**SchralphMacchio** · 09-27-2011, 09:09 AM

Don't use your Super Squawlpine Pass at Kirkwood. It's not worth the drive - they don't even have heated cafeterias and the nearest Peets is 33 miles away. Spending your day on 89, figuring out how to ski from one resort to the other, is going to be much more worth your time.

**3snowboards** · 09-27-2011, 09:24 AM

im waiting for a chair connecting kweed to alpine.
i did the calculations and it could be done.
with diesel too.

In terms of South Lake sushi, I've enjoyed a number of meals at Naked Fish over the years. A buddy I went to elementary school with owns it.

As with Deciblast, I, too, am spoiled by the wealth of raw fish that San Francisco has to offer (insane freshness/quality, cheap prices), and this is the only place I've hit in Tahoe that even comes close (sorry but Mamasake is WAY over-priced and WAY over-rated, as, too, is Mikune). Java in Truckee was okay, as I remember, but then I wasn't paying for the meal. As for Sushi Pier, I've heard decent things about that place from tourists, Reno locals, and Truckee/Tahoe locals...it's on the list to hit this season.

Tripl3Threat College Passes - The Triple Threat College Pass is not valid at Squaw Valley. You can migrate to the Tahoe Super College Pass for Squaw access but the College Tahoe Super Pass is not valid at Kirkwood or Homewood.

Sorry mang.

if the fish is from hawaii, it is just as fresh in tahoe as sf since both areas get it fedexed overnight to their kitchens from honolulu.

The "upgrade" replaces homewood & kirkwood with squaw. Unfortunately us poor students don't get a 4 mountain pass for $350. I'm bummed too.

**The Dad** · 09-27-2011, 12:40 PM

Understood that it's a tough decision. But a nice one to have to make, no? If it were me, I'd base it on my available crash space opportunities in both places.

It's coming....can we expect a powdork TR?

**RaccoonFace** · 09-28-2011, 09:36 PM

Oh man... I hope not.

If it has to be it has to be.

Here is something to get your blood going:

I still love that shit!

**Raps** · 09-28-2011, 10:09 PM

Welp......I was going to do another bum around winter with no ski share or pass buuuut this little merger pushed me over the edge, plus through a certain connection I was able to get the silver for the early price of $499 which was a no brainer now that Alpine is on board....

Pretty pumped - see all you Squaw/Alpiners this season....
