And to get things started, another good day in the lake effect. It was getting a bit sticky on the ski out

For a guy with a bum knee you sure get after it! Way to kick off the new season!

22 Blue - Looking ahead to the New (aka Fuck Summer (aka Tahoe Thread))

I got the privilege to go repair some trail up in the high meadows area with Tamba a couple days ago with special permission from the FS.

I can tell you we have not lost trimmer or at least the slide paths, they look like they always have. Did not get a look at the bonus line which most approach and return though but from the burn maps I’ve seen it was untouched for the most part also. Backside burned of course but it’s never been an area I ski, I’m sure a few ski back there but the Crown Jewels are still intact. Honestly I wouldn’t minded if a bit of the swack burned on the lower bonus, but that doesn’t appear to be the case. The red X’s are a dozer line that might make access a little easier, they did do repair which a lot consists of putting logs and slash back over the open ground. They built a hand line also not shown on the map that could be useful also.

removed it and added in Echo Shuttles, which may also have benefitted.

Any recommendations for specific bootfitters at these stores on the South Shore? My schedule this year unfortunately won’t allow me to use Moment, where Fasa is awesome.

Add jokes about feet here. And maybe a conversation chart.

Technically the slide paths show as being in the burn zone, but it looks all green to me and looking at the burn intensity map seems it was a very low intensity burn

Slide zones won't matter anyway since all the christmas trees are gonna be buried this year so there would be no way to tell if it burned

Also a reservoir where the really determined lost skiers from Alpine and parts of Olympic Valley funnel to when they keep going and going after inadvertently leaving the resort boundaries to the west of the crest…
