I don’t need to check, I’m sure Squawpine didn’t run anything close to the top. Mt. Rose was straight up closed.
Here at Sugar Bowl, those of us who braved the “blizzard”-in-progress were treated to Disney, Judah and Lincoln! Kudos to Sugar patrol and ops who still know how to open in a storm! Best in Tahoe.
Winds weren’t too bad in the end, visibility was decent, no crowds or lines, couldn’t ask for a better storm day of freshies and free refills! Things didn’t get too “blizzardy” until the afternoon. Tomorrow could be a bit tougher if the forecast holds, heavy snow all day. Friday is going to be a zoo.
p.s. Trivia! Last week’s answer: False. Miners from Nevada City were hired to do the drilling for the steel towers. All the concrete was hand-mixed and poured on-site.
This week’s question: Ski Magazine once called Sugar Bowl the “Rools Royce of California Skiing.” True or False?
