Eric THello skiers and riders®! 

Hello fellow skiers and riders!  Sunny skies, gracious grooming, and just a hint of spring today. Lather up and head on out!

Spring-like weather has returned, at least for a few days, with temps hitting the mid 50s today. Should be fast and firm to start, then softening as the sun hits, with some corn possible as well.

The most action-packed event series in Tahoe, the Rahlves' Banzai Tour will take on Alpine Meadows on Thursday and Friday - a must see. And, if you're in the party mood (and who isn't?), get your tickets now for the annual Squaw Valley Prom on Saturday Feb. 25th, and be prepared to party like it's 1988!

And remember, any day on the mountain is a good day!

-Eric T.
