Skiing Is Here!

This last week, the ski areas have started making snow. I saw a bright white patch up near the top of Heavenly, and they opened Friday! The snow coverage may not be huge (Heavenly started with 15 acres), but it will be fun to get out on the boards.

Boreal and Donner Ski Ranch have opened.

Squaw/Alpine report a couple of runs open - I believe on the Squaw side.

Better yet, the forecast calls for a wet period beginning this coming Wednesday. And while wet can mean rain at lake level, that can translate into significant snow at higher elevations.

It appears that winter is about to arrive.

P.S. Before you make plans to drive up the mountain, double check the areas to see that they will be open.
