You just cant be a view like this. This picture was taken at the top of NorthStar at Lake Tahoe on the East Ridge run, while this looks cool I would avoid it if your a snowboarder. There seems to be way way to many flat spots along the Ridge to get to the snow park and half pipe.

It’s been a great season so far and while spending a week up in Tahoe over the Xmas Holidays I was able to get in some good days, and I also made it up with some friends a weekend ago. Today im checking the forecast and 3-4 extra feet of snow just dropped in the last few days. This looks like its going to be one hell of a season and if you ski or snowboard at Lake Tahoe this is the year to go.

More info on this sucker.. all I can say this was gooood…

I have always known about the many hiking trails behind the cabin but I did not know that their is a 2 and 1/2 mile hike from the cabin to our one of our favoritate brew pubs, so Thomas and I strapped on our snow shoes and ran down the trail for some beer and believe it or not we did it much faster with in the snow than during our summer trip.
