A pow day, a wind day and a crowded weekend…

Yay!  A legit bluebird day Thursday before the winds came and moved it all over the place.  Note to the official SB reporters, “bluebird” isn’t just every beautiful sunny day, it requires both sun AND fresh pow.  😉

And wow, I was not prepared for the crowds this weekend.  Rolled in at a leisurely 10am and the lots were full, had to park on the Judah access road.  Still, it was a short walk, and while there was a zoo of people everywhere, the lines were never more than a few minutes.  I heard at some point they were turning people away, which seemed strange since the Judah overflow lot wasn’t used.  When I came back to play with Reese early afternoon , it was easy to move to a closer spot in the upper Judah lot.  Props to Sugar for for not overselling like some Other Mountains.  Heard horror stories of closed lots, gridlocked traffic and huge lines.

Speaking of the busy weekend,  I have a couple posts brewing soon that are a little bit of a departure from just telling y’all how much of a blast I’m having getting after it.

And, looking ahead, for a hot minute there were ten suns in the forecast, but there’s already some snow headed our way.  Nothing huge yet, but it’s nice to see the things are staying active and not setting up for an extended Juneuary like last year.

Just another Truckee local who spends too much time at Sugar Bowl.
