Check out the pictures from Squaw Valley!
Friday night at 8:30 my phone rings and it's Ben Grunat.
Ben: Hey, we're going up to Tahoe tomorrow morning at 4:15 AM. Are you in?
Me: Hell yea.
Ben, Steve, Davy and I headed up to Squaw Valley USA early Saturday morning to shred the gnar and check out some of this year's early winter snowfall. It was my first visit to Squaw and I was impressed with the size of the in-bounds and the snow was decent. Most areas still had about a foot of powder, but it was at least a day old and somewhat packed on the top layer. We started off taking the Funitel to ski Emigrant and back up a couple times to ski Squaw Peak. We then headed back up to ski KT-22, but it seems we missed both Snow King and Granite Chief.
Next time I look forward to exploring the rest of the resort. I was also pretty impressed that Squaw Valley has hosted the 1960 Winter Olympics. Although much of the grandeur is gone from that time, the mountain still can prove it's worthy to host an Olympics.
