The Powder Gods Deliver

This has been a scarey looking start to the winter, 55 degrees and havy rain in Truckee are not what should happen in December. Having faith in the inevitability of a correction myself Håkan and Magnus commited to a 3 day trip to Tahoe over xmas and booked a hotel in SLT on the presumption that if nothing else we could rage all night. As it turned out we ended up at Kirkwood all three days since it had amazingly reasonable conditions considering it had been repeatedly rained on in the last week. True to form the NWS posted a winter storm warning and Sunday night Tahoe got back to its real form dumping 2 feet of fresh at Kirkwood for our final day. We managed to cut fresh tracks pretty much all day in windy and uncrowded conditions making for an amazing finish to the trip.
