Seems like skiing and snowboarding is back in fashion. After a lackluster 2007-2009 it seemed like the industry was just... well melting. But when you look at the stats, Tahoe, Mammoth and Big Bear are posting record years with annual snowfall... and skiers. The California Report for Snow and Conditions
tells is like it is. Holidays are always popular times at the resorts so be sure to book early for Martin Luther King - January 14-17, 2011, Presidents Weekend February 17-21, 2011 and Spring Break / Easter April 15-24, 2010. Easter Sunday is April 24, 2011

Mammoth will unveil its Super Duper 22 foot high pipe in the Main Lodge terrain park this month. They have also been building new features. January marks Midweek Madness, a time to get up to Mammoth NOT during the weekends to save on lift tickets, flights and lodging. What are you waiting for. There is Snow Place Like Mammoth! We've got so much snow... please, put some in your pocket and take it home with you!
Even if you don't ski, you have to ride the Panorama Gondola to the top and visit the Eastern Sierra Interpretive Center. The view at 11,053 is unbelievable and you'll want your camera to capture the moment as you are on top of the world.
Mark your calendars for March 16-20 for Mammoth's Elevation Weekend.

Northstar is reporting 100" of snow and 60 trails open. In case you haven't heard, Northstar and Heavenly Valley are now brothers and sisters so you're season pass is good at both. Heavenly Valley is 97% open which is pretty much everything. Squaw Valley gets the congrats for 100% open and doing everything to turn impossible snow and weather into the best skiing ever.
If cross country is your thing... this is the year to give it a try. Tahoe Donner reports they have 48 of 50 groomed trails open. And Learn to Ski is back in January with each resort having discounts for beginners. It is a great time to visit Lake Tahoe. Mark your calendars for March 6-12, for Winterfest in South Lake Tahoe.

Fresh Air... Come Get Some. Snow Summit and Bear Mountain are having a bonus year and the riding and family fun is better than ever. Sunny skies are predicted for the better part of January making the fresh snow and clean air, the place in So Cal. The terrain parks are in great shape and thank you to Bear Mountain for this month's photo. As a reminder, use the back way through Redlands to access Bear Mountain and Snow Summit as Highway 330/18 are closed at Running Springs. |
