Who will get the last of last season's snow and the first of this seasons?
Yeah, had every intention of heading up for it and then remembered that I have a 20th Anniversary event tonight here in SF that I really should at least make a quick appearance at.
Me'n Vets will be scoring October turns Sat/Sun/Mon most likely Eastside Sat/Sun and then Lola on Mon. Prolly be the last of the 2010/2011 season for me, too. Woot!
Maybe we can go for some kind of food and drink when you're in the area. Or maybe we can get Phil to cook again. :)

I was up at Lake Shasta for some melted snow skiing, and happened to notice the north side of Lassen still has a nice long snow field. Somebody ought to go get that. Water skiing was fun, but it's not the same as subfreezing, really fresh, really deep water skiing.
Hopefully Vets is going to get his last day in for the old season tomorrow at Lola. Happy Birthday Vets (only a few hours early).
will the storm this week drop enough snow to officially call it the new season?! :biggrin:
/\/\ Happy Birthday Joe!
found a pretty nice stash of a few hundred feet on the east side of Lola. good call on that, easy and awesome. just had to chance the broken bridge in the 4runner... no biggie.
^ last turns of the one oh one one season!

yo Prophet!
When were you up on Lola?
I hit it up yesterday.
I've been too much of a p@ssy to cross what we call "The Jan Michael Vincent Memorial Bridge of Danger" this entire summer (been up to the Lola Summit ridge 3 times in the last two weeks now and earlier in the summer with Vets when we opted for Perazzo Canyon Chutes rather than chance rolling off the bridge into the river), but you made it across no problemo in a 4Runner? (I have a Taco Mama).
And presuming you were on the stretch of snow right under the summit with a view of Independence Lake in the distance, that's the main one that I've been hitting since last summer when Gone2Alpine hipped me to the area.
It was windy as f@#k yesterday, but the snow was smoovey-smoov.
A couple of mountain bikers passed me on the way up and just as I hit the summit they were headed back down. I swear one of them was Scott Schmidt...
PS @ Schralph: you are right. I am a hypocritical douche...then again, I don't think I've ever denied that!
just started raining in Truckee...
I see snow falling on the Squaw uber-cam. Time to move to the new thread, following this one still is annoying. ;P
IMHO the next season hasn't started until turns are made on an accumulation of new snow.
I hope to soon be posting some pictures of 10/11 turns made this past weekend at The Nipple and Dunderberg.
........that might be today.
I'm making a bid for this.
Last turns of 2010/2011 were around 4 pm at Mt. Lola on Monday, October 3rd.

pretty sure our august 06, 2012 turns were almost exclusively on the 2011 snowpack, so this belongs here?
heading out, everyone had the same view, but they all asked if we thought we'd be able to find snow

You are a lot better looking than I remember.
^i been drinkin' milk. it does a body good.
You got a good womin there. Hang onto her.
Damn! Got beat by a month (though I'm gonna be schralpin' some patches this w/e).
Pretty sure that the snow Vets and I skied last month up on Lola was from 10/11 (at least that was Huckasaurass' speculation in the 11/12 thread / Lola TR).
Good show PD and Hutchy!
