Skiing Stoke from Lake Tahoe

Rocktober Pow!

Piling up in Squaw on October 23rd.


Tahoe got a one-two punch of snow over the last couple of days. Thick to start, light to finish, just the way we like it. About 15 inches on the valley floors and over 30 inches up high.

Instant ski season underway at Alpine Meadows.

All in a morning’s work!

Sikorsky Skycrane at Squaw Valley 10.15.12


A Sikorsky Skycrane helicopter visited Squaw Valley yesterday to haul towers from the Squaw parking lot to the location of the new Big Blue Express lift. The impressive aerial workhorse had the entire project done by lunch. Less than a minute in and out except for some of the larger towers. The Big Blue Express will improve traffic flow and mid mountain access at Squaw and starts where the old High Camp loaded and unloads near the top of East Broadway (neither lift exists anymore).

Further Premiere Lights Up Squaw Valley

Big mountain snowboarder Jeremy Jones’ latest film “Further” premiered in front of thousands at Squaw Valley last Friday. Further was shot over the last two years and focuses on accessing and riding remote parts of the planet. The movie also features time-lapse footage from local photographer Grant Kaye. Seth Lightcap gives us the scoop on this special night in Squaw.

How the other half lives…

The authors of SBDC are kickin’ it with family in the Hamptons (NY) this weekend. Straight up East Coast style. What’s it like out here? It’s kind of like this…

Since we reside on the Left Coast, look for the West Coast retaliation video upon our return to California on Monday.
