I got one guy outta downtown Sac that needs a lift. Trying to see who else is interested so we max out the seats in my wgn to split costs even further.
The Wood was stellar yesterday esp. considering it's April already. The wknd's storm dropped close to a foot on Sat & Sun. The snow was on the heavy side but still really good! Fawn Ridge & Sentinel Bowl were prime!
Last week, I downloaded an app to track my ride days. I'm still not too familiar w/ its use, but I'll post up my results anyway. When I get a chance, I'm gonna compare what was tracked yesterday thru EpicMix.
Here's yesterday at the Wood: AlpineReplay - Cliff L's visit to Kirkwood on Apr, 01 2013
And this is Bear a week ago: AlpineReplay - Cliff L's visit to Bear Valley on Mar, 26 2013
Oh, and most resorts will be shutting down in the next 2 or 3 weeks.
Another high snow level system slated for Fri thru Mon, so get it while you can!

Cliff, you are right, Bear Valley is doing a promotion. Share the snow. Anybody with a season pass to any other resort can ride Bear for free.

i was at bear on sunday last week, it was slushy as hell and the snow was all melted up till your got to the base of the mountain...if your gonna go, go this weekend might be the last time.
Just texted back & forth w/ Steve, and he's still not able to play hookey to hit up Bear tmrw.
I called Bear earlier to find out more about their Share the Snow promo in re: to those who don't have a pass at a different resort. The lady I spoke w/ said Bear passholders can get ONE free lift ticket for another person. SWEET!
I'm still down to shred tmrw. Since afternoon snow is typically crap, I'm thinking ride til 230ish to enjoy all the afternoon festivities! Pond Skim. Reggae vibes, mon. And most importantly, brew!

Have fun guys, Sunday is my only day off so im gonna hit up kwood. Sounds like the conditions will be very good too. Little snow expected for mon-tues so look for kirkwood to stay open a bit longer (maybe the 28th?).

Also forgot to mention, im gonna be heading down to mammoth mountain for my birthday may 9-13. I got a one bedroom condo with a full kitchen and all. Im headed down with a female friend of mine who snowboards too. There is a rollout bed in the living room thats open if anyone wants to trek down to get some late season snow to hold you over till November...it's gonna be hella fun. Bringing a keg of hop stoopid ftw.
