Lake Tahoe 2015/16 - Year of Godzilla Baby Jesus

[powpig]

i just realized, it's almost the end of the season and I have some sugar bowl vouchers for $25 lift tickets.. i have no use for them and all my friends have passes elsewhere. up for grabs if anyone wants em, figure better to give em out than let them go to waste

I'll take one if you've still got. I'm up on Donner this weekend.

Dass good stuff dare boy.

And palisades are closed..... I'm sitting at sugar bowl right now. There is more filled in than the past few years (obvious). However, there are plenty of little steep and narrows shots with mandatory airs that typically "go" by end of March. Imo, there is going to be some good skiing at SB after closes

It's gonna be a long fun spring!

What the fork is up with that fork? How much travel? Tahoe BC?

Y couloir in Sonora pass. Is the river crossing a problem on a snowy year?

Try the Sonora Pass thread...

I meant to mention that. A lofty told me on Tuesday. Welcome to the new Vailwood, where they don't even tell you in advance anymore because they know how much they suck for closing so early.

If you are going to close in mid May, at least keep it all running.

kW used to close 2,3,4 two weeks before closing. So that timing is not new. It's just the whole place will shit down in two weeks.

BTW, TC closes next Sunday.

Nice Ski Incline Shot. Are you "The Talent" now ??

For a change of pace we went poking around the North side of the lake starting from a hood in Incline, for the most part we found the terrain to be pretty mellow, but the views are big and the corn was smooth. But to keep things interesting we found a couple features to play on and built a booter. Still happy to be based out of the south shore





Most of the Terrain was like this though

Very Nice. And you proved that I no longer Live in Incline. I was off by 3 or 4 Miles on the View.

the fact that you hiked up from Incline makes it even more Cool.

It's doable on an average year. Hear anything about opening date?

[skier666]

Sonora Pass at the hairpin...on big years, there's a nice snow bridge. As it melts out, so does the water level...and if you are really concerned you can always start at the top of the pass and then get a little wet on your exit. Even on a big year, the river was only up to my knees and thus doable.

Well Done. I do not recall ever seeing a Video that represented SB as well as your work.

Two years ago, 666 personally destroyed the snow bridge. Go to 2:40 for videographic proof:

Great video, although I did mute the audio and watch while listening to Tom Waits Heart Attack and Vine.
