Great to hear the stoke continues with the recent dusting and cooler temps. Big event weekend at PT-OV. Get your snowler blade on with the Pain McShlonky on Saturday. Sports Basement is also...

PT-OV was ying and yang on Saturday. All time on the on KT-22 with both the conditions and the line length. The wind dynamic allowed areas to be reset all day long. Upper Mountain closure really put...

In 2010 I was hiking over to the Sugar Bowl from the top of Disney and this I came upon a group spreading ashes and I thought that would be a cool place for remeberance and to be spread for the after...

Skibused up to PT-OV on Saturday and just lapped KT all day. I was worried about the holiday and lines, but didn't have to wait all day. Black out and track out for the lower hill lead to no waiting....

I am Loving the mild stoke on the conditions front. See the fast groomer lovers on Saturday at PT-OV......

Laissez les bons temps rouler

duck, duck,....

Saturday at PT-OV was definitely firm, but the Sports Basement ski bus was still full.
The usual steeps off KT were closed(West Face, Dead Tree, Rock Garden,C75, Mosely's), but Red Dog Ridge did...

Great day up at PT-Olympic Valley on Saturday. I spent most of the day lapping West Face as it seems I lost my phone over there. Navy Blue rubber case, light blue plastic. It could be a lost cause...

In case anyone wants the media depiction of the approval meeting in Kings Beach.

The Fifty Lives... in a Plus format during a recent Salomon Film tour. I caught the SF stop and Cody and Elise were gettin after it outside of Girdwood AK. I suspect it will come out post tour with...

Popping in to say last Sunday at POV was a great day. Wind buff and Northern Facing were dang near wintery. North bowl had rooster tails of blown in fluff.
Plenty of Rad dads trying to rock the...

I got to see Mountain State 2.0 this past week at the Salmon QST film fest. Pretty sweet line up of films with a NICE! "The Fifty: Polar Star" episode. Ski porn is better on the big screen with...

I made it out to the Salomon QST Film fest in San Francisco earlier this week. Cody's "The Polar Star" Episode was the final film and was amazing. Do yourself a favor and go if the tour is in your...

Very happy and sore after a Visit to P-OV on Sunday. Basically stayed on KT all day and it was glorious.

The Sports Basement Ski Bus is still running to P-OV and KW, looking like two more weekends running. I've been on it for the last five weekends, BUT Saturday spring conditions at P-OV were ALL time...

The Palisades conditions were unique on Saturday. The rain and freeze cycle smoothed over the mountain...many places no mogul texture at all which made for a bit more straight lining. Firm morning to...

Plenty of events still rolling this weekend to drive us turons to make iffy decisions on our externalities on the general population:

Pickers are going to pick... Mountain Town/Town Mountain. https://www.townmountain.net/

I can't answer your question, but if I had to guess, I suspect there could be some fun Country Cover bands...

Trekked up to Kirkwood yesterday and MP is spot on with the conditions. I'll add that it was cold. I was about 20 chairs back when 10 Loaded at 12:15:). Lots of stoke since the opening time was...

Funny I had to check the status @ CP too. Looks like Dodge Ridge for the win. Their website says 100% open.

Not that anyone comes to TGR for this beta, but BV closed today due to high Avalanche danger.

I am hoping the Pineapple part of recent storms isn't degrading the Griz bowl too much.

A buddy and I got the Christmas day at Bear Valley. Great coverage everywhere. The Griz bowl was open (Opened on Friday). Not crowded at all. Warm spring like snow through out.

I put together a "Sweet Blog, Bro" to keep the stoke going for Spring Skiing and blab about the Mothership Classic. I hope it's not a Jinx on more snow in the forecast, as all the CA news media is...

Bear Valley held up well for 4 days of shredding. Perfect recovery from the Mothership Classic, laps and laps on a 745 Elevation drop. Just the perfect recovery.
Big kudos to my new on Hill Partner...

Coming Up later this week to squeeze a few more days out of my Bear Valley Pass. I am staying in Angel's Camp and can coordinate a Highway 4 Carpool Thurs-Sun if anyone is interested in rideshare....
