The condition on Eliie's should be more powdery than the video of your wife skiing there. Should be much tougher condition.
Good news and bad news, the good news is the storm comes thru like they forecasted, the bad news is the snow I could throw with my snow-thrower, that means “wet and heavy,” it is more like “cement” than “powder.” A cold temperature will come tomorrow to change the precip to all snow, hope that will help. By Friday, thou, I think all should be good.

snowbender 寫:One day late? Alright, you may have just avoided the worst of this winter storm. It was forecasted “rain” today for South Lake Tahoe, and it turned out snowed all day, and the heavy precipitation, rain and snow, has yet to come through tonight, and snow will linger through Wednesday. Thursday cloudy, Friday sunny, and the weekend, snow resume.

I’ll ski with my wife on Thursday, so I’ll ski with you on Friday. (Are you alone?) We can meet at the entrance of Gunbarrel Express (chair lift) at 10am Friday. Gunbarrel Express is the only lift out of Cal Base heading up mountain, below is the ever famous “Gunbarrel,” you might want to check it out yourself, not sure about the moguls, but the snow going to be thick.

I’ll call you Thursday night to confirm our meeting time and place.
sounds good, see you Friday

Powder skiing is great, but the crowds are terrible, go early to avoid the crowds.

Ok, we meet at 11:00am bottom of Sky Express outside single line; I’m wearing my usual outfit, blue top, kasha pants.

Thank you very much to ski with me. That's fun skiing the chop up powder, I won't get in those thing if you are not guiding me.

Thanks very much for you coming to Tahoe to check me out. The skiing we did proves we’re both capable of doing what we’re saying, you like bump skiing, and I like ski powder and trees, that’s what skiing together and exchange the experience all about. Thanks for showing me your bump skiing, that’s very fluid.

I read it from Heavenly twitter-feed,

NV side on power delay, and cal base parking lot is full at 9am, going to be a messy day, I won’t be there. Have fun. :)

The line up for the bus to California side is ridiculously long. Gondola is running dead slow and stopping any time.

We decide to take a day off and enjoy the view of Lake Tahoe.

It's smart not skiing today and competing with the crowds.
