Patchskiing 2020 Edition
Instead of posting a separate TR for every patchskiing day, I'm going to put them in one thread. I hope that others will add to this. I also hope to provide views, creamed corn and soft-serve snow images, along with some dog stoke.
I'll post a few highlights from each day.

Yeah, pretty sad.
Education must be the answer, we've tried ignorance and it doesn't work!

This season has been very different from last season. The Tahoe area had great early start followed by an abrupt early spring.
Last season was great with powder days into May.
Here are a couple of photos to offer some contrast.
Mt. Sputnik (elevation 5440) on February 22, 2019:
(Dome Two, the location of the photo in the first post is at an elevation of 8315)
Leviathan Peak (elevation 8942) on June 9, 2019
(This is less than a mile away from Dome Two)

Looks dirty, but smooth due to a lack of suncups.

I don't know if it's you or Zooey typing, Stev, but someone is speaking about themselves in the third person.
