Had high hopes for this storm, but it didn't turn out well. Heard this from Baldy today: "The fluctuating snow level made Baldy an Ice Sheet. Things are pretty locked down." The heavy rain coming in tomorrow isn't going to help.
Maybe San G is high enough to be winning.

Last weekend only the easy way and Skyline were groomed, which pulled up some rocks on the last pitch. Robin's was still bumpy with saplings/rocks/ditch but skis well. Goldridge had good coverage.
Don't know if the snow/rain this past week was a net gain or loss regarding the base.

Per a post on their site last night: Lots of precipitation today, but that is now in the past. The forecast calls for sunny skies tomorrow to kick off the MLK Weekend and through the 10 day forecast period. We will be open for Skiing & Snowboarding, Scenic Rides and Snow Tubing first thing tomorrow morning.Lifts #2 & #3 are expected with groomed conditions. The Gulch, Toilet Bowl to Bonanza, Easy Rd & Skyline are on the grooming list for tonight. The rest of Thunder Mountain will be closed while we look at the snow conditions and pack.
Doesn't really sound worth the drive...then again, I've already spent the money ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The crust was firm enough to not break through? Hike up from bottom or take the Backbone?

@1000-oaks - hiked up the bowl down the west shoulder. it rained to 10k in the 1/17 storm so there's a huge raincrust on top, never punched thru.
@406 the chutes looked pretty bony but the shoulder of the bowl (in the direction of the summer trail) was pretty fat.

Took jr up made it 2/3 of the way up badden before he started to get cold. Strapped board to feet and threw jr on my back. On way down he kept saying daddy I’m scared. I was puckered cause it was survival snowboarding to get down to say the least he was pumped at the bottom. Here’s a few shots I snapped really boney and low tide. By the looks of it that’s gonna change hope to cross paths with some of you on here this next week. If anyone wants to meet up for a tour message me.

What do folks think of this system that's coming through during the weekend? Enough to repair Baldy? Would love to go north but have too much shit planned for the weekend. Contemplating a Monday excursion though...

A few degrees either way will make or break it with regard to Baldy, it's going to be close.

Pretty juiced about the snow the San Bernardino mtns are getting this weekend. Recent local reports or forecasts for Baldy or Sugarloaf ski conditions? Interested in a Monday excursion, in case anyone has tips or interest in meeting up with a novice. Have gear and some common sense

Snow line is hovering about 7,800 feet, keep your fingers crossed that it holds and then drops around 4pm.
