First Snow of the Season!!
I knew it was coming. The cold temperatures were an indication of snow approaching. Last night Mother Nature sprinkled Heavenly with a little more than two inches of snow. When I was driving into the office, I conveniently re-routed so I could catch a glimpse of Gunbarrel. About a quarter of the way up the run I could see snow. The clouds were still hanging low so I couldn’t see the top of the mountain, but I rolled down my window and could smell the snow. Winter is coming people, I told you so in my last entry. Get your gear and your pass!Now there is no denying…does anyone need an experienced nose meteorologist??
Check out the mountain snapshots for pics from this morning.

What timing. I was home for lunch today, looking up at the mountains new dusting of its first snow, and the UPS gods graced me with my new ski’s. All of the gear is now ready at the front door once I got home and had time to go through it all. It will be an awesome year with the new Olympic run and fun to be had all over the mountain. Dave

Wished I lived in Tahoe!!!! I love to visit in the summer to mountain bike. There are only small hills within 200 miles of me. I live in Dallas so the closest thing resembling mountains are in Arkansas, but they don’t EVEN compare to the beauty of your area. I sometimes dream of being back there……

I have two things I love in life. Moguls and Oxygen! Without those two things. I would be dead. Heavenly’s moguls go straight down the face with a stellar view of Lake Tahoe. Don’t stare too long at the lake though. You’re libel to do a FACE PLANT!

Killebrews Canyon is calling my name! Limitless freshies down untracked lines for days! Adrenal glands are in check secreting essential power ski juice for my summer legs. That’s why Snipers Gulch is gonna be ill this winter. Pointing the double blacks, pulling sky high backs and sticking fresh tracks. Sack your backpacks with stacks of adrenal snacks because Jacks Ridge is mine. Entrepenuership is my mission when it comes owning the slopes. Get me to Heavenly NOW!

Good to see the “snowflies” are flying again. I’m ready to shred!

the last ski of the season at Tahoe is but a distant memory…the long hot summer in the Bay is finally over and the thought of spending my weekends up on the mountain is slowly putting a big fat grin on my face…
thank you so much Aimi – just keep on posting….
