Curious too. Not that I will ever make it a destination, but I'm curious what area gets that much snow that far south.

**cdlv** · 01-10-2011, 12:59 AM

40 minutes outside vegas.

You should make it a destination. Those mountains fucking rock. They remind me of the dolomites though on a smaller scale. Tons of great lines all over.

GO THERE

I'm going back for more for sure.

Sweet TR. Going to have to hit you up for some beta on down there. Working on doing the county high points this year.

**SchralphMacchio** · 01-13-2011, 12:32 PM

**brutah** · 01-13-2011, 12:38 PM

**Holorinhal** · 01-13-2011, 05:59 PM

Once again a great home town Tr thread.
We took the snow cat up into Deer creek last Saturday. It is really deep up there! The Cat actually had trouble breaking trail even on the road. The Ski down was a blast!

**cdlv** · 01-13-2011, 06:41 PM

Hal, there is a great run off the back porch of the big high house to the airstream

June-uary Corn harvesting.
Record high temps pretty much killed the powder, but temps finally got below freezing overnight so corns-a-poppin.

boilerplate so why not bootpack for the first mile

view of the chute i did last week from another ridge

squint and you can see my line, someone did it during this past weekends heat wave and looks like they set off a few wet slides.

over the hump to Pahrump!

02-06-2011

was hoping freeze thaw cycle the last week broke down the crust and some reconstituting happened. wind crusts from the storm earlier in the week were the problem instead.

**cdlv** · 02-12-2011, 08:12 PM

02-12-2011
checked out a new zone:

wife came along to try out her new snowshoes.

wind raped and nasty looking

this would be nice if there wasn't an evil windcrust lurking underneath

cut off to hit east facing chute for some corn,nice views from the top

and the other direction isn't looking bad either

**cdlv** · 02-14-2011, 11:29 PM

02-14-2011
getting out for some before the storms come in

**cdlv** · 03-16-2011, 07:15 AM

03-15-2011

If ye"all feel like a mission that requirs a 4x4, and camping?
I recommend telescope peak in death valley!
camp at mahogany flat, and use the walking trail.
Lookers left, along the ridge beside telescope peak has a shadow gully that may hold snow this year.
Its easy to scope it both on the drive up, and the walking trail.
Skiing snow in death valley? I've had people call bullshit on me to my face.
If I could find pic"s I'd post them. and I'm not even drunk!
