I have been compiling my footage from the pass year into what will become the 2008 skiing extravaganza that is

SKITABULUS, too high to fly

It’s still months away from completion but here is a preview of the Squaw powder segment.

The soundtrack is entirely Ween.
In this segment the song is Your Party

The 2007/2008 Squaw Valley ski season has come to an end. And what a season it was! We ended up with over 420 inches of snow on the upper mountain and just over 300 inches at 6200′. The bulk of our snowfall, 237 inches of it, fell over a one month period ( January 4 — February 3 ). It was as good as it gets. Deep days.

All and all a great season! Thanks for coming out and keeping the scene alive.

I am currently in Morro Bay/San Luis Obispo, CA doing some surfing, hanging with my brother and his family and working full time on gCaptain.com

In about a month I will be off to Las Lenas, Argentina for the 2008 South American ski season. I will be trying to keep everyone posted with regular updates on UnofficialAndes.com.

HAVE A GREAT SUMMER

Last Day for KT (definite): Sunday April 20

No Headwall Monday April 7 through Thursday April 10

Headwall re-opening Friday April 11

Last Day for Headwall (possible, not definite): Sunday April 13

Sad news, The Slot was awesome on Sunday despite the wind.

A liftie told me the reason for no Headwall was “money issues.”

The skiing the pass few days has been terrific. Most of the locals have been hanging around KT – West Face, 75, Rock Garden, Deed Tree (that’s right Dead Tree) All Skiing great. Also check out any of the hike access terrain –Main line, GCP, B. Arrow, The Sades. Bottom line, their is great skiing going down all over the mountain. Silverado was closed today and I’m not sure it will open again this season but I am counting out one last weekend.

Some Canadian Global news reporter thinks the bottom of a sledding hill is a great place to do his broadcast. He was wrong.
