what the hell! dammit im going there this weekend (kirkwood)


looks like we are getting a little snow this weekend, that should be fun

 

ill be at boreal friday into saturday, taken up the rex =)

 

yay snow finally

 

**** kirkwood/subaru partnership. I'm still bummed that when I got my 05 new and already had a kirkwood pass, like my 4th one (this is how i get treated for being a good customer) subaru gave me 2 free season passes, kirkwood wouldn't give me anything for them. Said they had to be immediate family ie. bro/sis/mom/dad.......none of which ski..........wouldn't let me give it to anyone or any other family or give me a damn thing for it......**** you kirkwood for that!

almost got expedition kirkwood for it but then manager said they had lost to much money year b4. selfish ******.

 

nope. sucks.

Plan is...

March 1/2
March 15/16 maybe 17
March 23
March 29/30
April 5/6
April 12/13
April 19/20


I'd be stoked if I can hit 10 days though.

My brother works Sats though.

Hopefully get two 3 weekends in there.

Try to get close to 20 days this year. Less than I'm used to but enough to keep me happy.

 

That looks like a pretty fun schedule if u can make it up that much..I haven't gone at all, its killin me.

 

What are the chances that 89 will be closed for avy control on sunday. I will be checking it sat nite but typically what do you guys expect...

 

it doesnt look like the storm is going to be that bad. just a few weeks ago it snowed somewhere around 18 inches or so and i think they might have close 80 for a few hours or something, or maybe that was just talk. its predicted to snow somewhere between 3 inches and a foot so i wouldnt be too worried with the highway being closed

we've been in worse and it was still open, id honestly be surprised if they closed it

 

What section o' 89 ya referring to?

Ya planning on Squawllywood or Alpine... so 89 fr Truckee to Tahoe City? Or are ya gonna be in South Lake on Sat & looking to get to Kirkwood on Sun morning?

Only time I've been denied on 89 has been along the southwest shore near Bliss State Park. I was trying to get fr Homewood to SLT, but closures are typical during & just after most storms for that particular stretch. The long way around the lake ain't bad though.

I'm actually thinking ya meant to say "88" since that's the closure-prone hwy to the Sierras fr the Bay/Valley.

Looks like the last storm of the set is gonna be a doozy...
My guess is there will be some closures overnite Sat & into Sun morning. Seems like this year, the standard operating procedure with heavy snowfall & strong winds has been to shut 'em down.

Have fun & Good luck.

 

haha yea I did mean 88. always get those 2 mixed up.

 

I was up at Kirkwood yesterday. Started snowing in the morning when I got there around 830am and never let up.

 

hey wanted to check if anyone knew how the snow was in South Lake, specifically Heavenly. Was thinking of heading up today so if anyone could let me know that would be great

 

I'm going up to Heavenly tomorrow thru Sunday. As of this morning, no restrictions on Highway 50 per caltrans ( http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/roadinfo/ )

 

Kirkwood Sunday. Look for the white wagon with gold wheels.
