I'm definitely looking forward to the new Olympic lift too. I always loved that part of the mountain, but I never spent too much time there because the lift ride was painfully slow. I hope you guys get the full five feet of snow! Man I hate having to wait here while you guys get dumped on and hope that we at least get a few feet. It’s cool dude, don’t worry about it.

I didn't see a lot of snow dumpings, but hey I was only there a year :) Yes, Olympic Express is ready to go. Heavenly Ski Patrol finished the final evacuation training and we are hoping to open it very, very soon! I didn’t mean to hurt any So Cal feelings, I love So Cal and spent a year at Snow Summit!

This is the big one. I'm looking at my station's doplar right now and there are HUGE precip bands about 20 miles west of the lake and heading east FAST! Its absolutely saturated and will be cooling rapidly and dropping as the clouds rise over the mountains. It will be dumping by the time you guys are reading this at. At 7:35-7:45 or so be ready for the drop because it should start about that time. Dear God. This is the big one.

I actually live in Southern California, but up in the mountains near Big Bear. It does actually snow there and we actually have ski resorts and everything! It's really quite similar to Tahoe except it's about 5 degrees warmer at any given time with many more sunny days. Smaller ski resorts and a little less snow though :( That being said, I've been skiing all over (Vail, Whistler, Mammoth, etc) and Heavenly is still my all time favorite place in the world. No other place in the world can compare to the beauty of Lake Tahoe from the top of Sky Express after a fresh dumping of snow. I can't wait for my trip there in March!
