2008 Ski Season: Day 1

Today I started the 2008 ski season in full style. Talk about a powder day?!? It snowed the entire time I was skiing. The weather guys weren't kidding when they said to "Bring a Snorkel!"

First off, I have to give props to the Bay Area Ski Bus for getting us there at all. Route 80 was closed which blocked off our initial ascent into Squaw Valley. But they quickly realized that Route 50 was open and that Sierra at Tahoe was within range. Good thing too, because Sierra got over 4 FEET on Friday! Check it:

24 HOUR SNOWFALL

Last 48 HR - Last 72 HR
1. Kirkwood, California, Northern
60"
2. Sierra at Tahoe, California, Northern
48"

Kirkwood was closed which makes my powder day at Sierra today the biggest snowfall for the entire country. Not too shabby.
