They pushed the opener it's not Saturday the 22nd they haven't announced when they are opening. Northstar and heavenly will be open, might have some wind holds.
I'll be heading up pretty early, gonna be nice to make some Turns at the wood!! If it's a busy shit show I'll probably cruise up to nstar most of my buddy's are heading there. Really hoping they can spin 6 and 11 soon, from what Coop's saying it sounds possible before too long
Yeah if tomorrow wasn't day 10 I'd be heading right up early, but its been killing me to drive past the wood :roadrage:to go to heavenly and ns,gotta at least stop and take a few for their opener.
Opener was good, snow was heavy but fun. Everything was pretty hard the next morning started to soften by the time I was leaving. The mountain has some good coverage up top this should help get more lifts spinning https://opensnow.com/dailysnow/tahoe
I'm here now conditions are pretty damn good. Chair 6 is opening for 1 :hairy: the roads were a little slick coming up the 88 had to use the 4wd. I'm predicting a bit of a sh*t show tomorrow as every person from the bay and Sac is gonna drive up and get in my damn way.
The wood rode great today the top definitely got some good cover. Took a few down sentinel and it was riding deep up there. Still up in the air for tomorrow depends on what terrain they open in the am. Sierra at tahoe opened at noon today might ride there tomorrow
Im just looking at the report. 18" in top, Maybe even 25, but still a base. I Was so stoked to go now I'm not sure at all. I read that 88 is clear until the Spur. That's not good. How deep exactly was today on top of 6? It's a 6h roundtrip for me, I need to be sure.
It's a tough call if they open the wall tomorrow it will be 100% worth it. They had some good base up top before the storm so it's not really that bony up there and they definitely got a foot and a half. CE should still be fun tomorrow, typical kirkwood though all the easy to get to stuff has been well rode on. The roads were clean but that's just because cal Trans is good at snow removal if nothing else. There was snow down to buckhorn today it's melted now but the line did get pretty low
Thanks for the update buddy. I think i got a little too excited too soon, im still waiting for Coop post, I was hoping backside, wall, bowls, after the Mega-Storm... Not a foot of packed base. Glad you had good runs today. MAN I was so stocked, typing with all the gear out in garage, now I'm changing my mind.
Yeah its a tough call when you have to do all that driving, I'm lucky the wood is 35 miles from my driveway. I'll more than likely be there tomorrow it would be nice if they run some more lifts I really don't see why they wouldn't
Of course. 5 years SP holder, I just want it all and I'm happy to drive. Did it SO many times. Love 88. Get some good carves tomorrow, I'll wait the next storm.
Hard to say this early they're talking a little more snow this week. I'll be at the wood the next two days and probably hit n* on Tues than back to the wood on my way home Wednesday should have a better idea after a day or two this week. What I can tell you is that kirkwood was a fucking blast yesterday the snow was light and the rocks were launchable (so many soft landings) the only down side was the lines (heavenly not having power didn't held at all) and by most resorts standards they weren't even bad, I just spend too much time there midweek and never have to wait for anything
