tarponhead Posted February 21, 2016 Report Posted February 21, 2016 Local friend with my old crew. Not many pics because they ran hard. 3rd civilian chair off of lift 10 to backside. Lotta runs then moved to front for many powder shots before traversing from chair 6 to palisades bowl boundary (where pics are taken) finished the day running laps on soft bumps under chair 6. Quit exhausted at 3 Can see chair 10 lift in distance for how far traverse was Run of day was 2 man chute. Had junior free style championships today launching off of fawn ridge. Those kids are remarkable. 5

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 24, 2016 Report Posted February 24, 2016 Damn Tarponhead disappeared.
indiggio Posted February 24, 2016 Report Posted February 24, 2016 Probably having way too much fun and loathing a return to this crappy weather... 2
tarponhead Posted February 25, 2016 Author Report Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Nah, sorry. Day 3 was firm but particular chutes were still primo. Days 4 and 5 were mid 40s corn after the 10AM thaw and mucho mucho fun. Last few runs of the day were off of chair 10 into the stunt ditch. Perfect way to end it. We all met up at 2:30 and drove into south lake for happy hour sushi/saki/ beers. Random scenery shots of the cirque and Lake Tahoe Sux to leave but looking forward to going home. Be at blue this weekend Edited February 25, 2016 by tarponhead 3
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 25, 2016 Report Posted February 25, 2016 You had me at stunt ditch.
tarponhead Posted February 27, 2016 Author Report Posted February 27, 2016 Leaving on Tuesday. Stoked! You may be in for some good storms. Hope you get it https://opensnow.com/dailysnow/tahoe Any days at kirkwood?
Justo8484 Posted February 28, 2016 Report Posted February 28, 2016 No kirkwood. Northstar, heavenly, squaw, and maybe a day at alpine meadows. My last ski day is Saturday so I'll miss whatever the potential is for Sunday, but hoping that thirsday thing pans out!

Bring the fattest skis you got!
Justo8484 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Posted February 29, 2016 Did you check out the updated daily snow report (link above)? Bring the fattest skis you got! seeing as how I fly home the 5th, I don't think that really changes things for me. I'm just hoping it's not crusty at this point.

You may not be able to fly out the 5th... You should probably work on that "cough" at work right about now
