Squaw Valley

Matt, Brooke, and I drove up to Squaw Valley from San Francisco yesterday. We skied today, on Squaw’s last day of the season. It was sunny and warm, and a nice way to cap off the season. It was a great day, but tiring. For our last run, we hiked up a ridge line, and ended up having to do a bit of exploration to find a way down that didn’t involve falling off of any cliffs. We’re probably going to do some mountain biking tomorrow. I posted some photos from the day.

This year, we (Mom, Dad, and I) trekked up to Stratton, VT, for a ski trip. Elizabeth stayed at home, unfortunately, as she was busy working at her new job. We had a mixed bag of weather – some fresh snow when we arrived, some sun, some rain, and some freezing rain. It was great, regardless, to finally get in a nice chunk of skiing. We stayed in the same condo we had used last year, as it was very near the lifts.

IT’S GETTING CLOSER . . .

Here are a couple of photos from Elk Mountain this morning, up in the northeastern corner of PA. That’s where we have our season passes. Elk received 4-5 inches of natural snow overnight, with the snow still coming down. That plus manmade snow should get the season kicked off soon.
