    Hey Mike,

    Rode up the chair with you today. Call P. Peterson and tell him to give your kid a job. He's at the top of the food chain, the buck stops there. Ultimately, people in those positions are politicians, and if there's one thing they hate, it's bad PR. Best of luck.

Zephyr Spendor

 First grooming job earlier in the week left Zephyr torn and scabby to say the least which is normally true when a run hasn't been groomed for weeks or months... today that investment paid off with perfectly smooth cord with the nice addition of a million dollar view. Kudo's to the grooming crew for grooming more runs than usual and really working the snow into perfect cord with very few anomalies. I can't say it's as well groomed as a Dave Hahl job but its getting closer. On the Hahl Scale I would say grooming the last several weeks general scores high marks... 8.8. Keep up the good work boys! Zephyr is why we love Nevada... open country, few people and enough snow and sky to have the freedom to fly on those boards of ours.  Sven

Groomers Great, Off-Piste... not so much

OK, my title is a bit of an overstatement. Sometimes you can find decent snow that has softened a bit with the sun, but on a cold day... not so much. Grooming is still amazingly good despite the fact that it hasn't snowed in over a month. The grooming crew is doing a good job of providing 3 to 4 runs on the Slide Side and many more on the Rose side with typically a couple of face runs and Bullwhip groomed. Aida's has my vote of Best In Show lately! Checked out The Chutes today and although some might say they are wonderful (compared to glare ice or bare rock) most common people would say they are pretty dicey right now. If you fall and are not able to get your edges right under you or do a pole self arrest, strap yourself in for a skeleton-like ride... and you just might be a skeleton in the literal sense if you wrap yourself around a tree since you purchased a ticket on the Oblivion Express. Its chalky in places and very smooth while it's cut up and fairly hard in others.

 Greetings all and Happy New Year 2023; Have had some technical issues on my end so please pardon the fact that this is the first post of this winter. Despite the National Weather Service dire predictions of a low snow year, so far this has not been the case as December puts us heads and tails above the averages.  Mid-December skiing was some of the best we have ever had with the last storm cycle ending with windless stellar flakes falling straight down with temps in the low teens adding up to 18" of the lightest fluffiest powder I have seen in the Sierras in a long time. Result: skiing was unbelievably good both on-piste and off. After the initial avalanche cycle ran its course with some major climax releases in Miller Time and The Hourglass the snow stabilized nicely for the next 10 days. With colder than average temps and no wind to speak of the snow stayed Colorado-like resulting in fantastic skiing for more than a week.  The only negative at Rose was the almost complete lack
