It's been quite a while since we posted anything, sorry about that …
Going back almost a month to my birthday, December 1, we cruised up to Mammoth to ski a few days on our way up to Tahoe. There is really nothing like skiing on a Monday; it completely ruins weekend skiing for you.
After skiing, we drove out to Mono Lake. This place is kind of magical. The tufa towers are calcium-carbonate spires formed by interactions between freshwater springs (previously underwater) and the alkaline lake water. The formations are a little unreal, feels kind of like another planet. Mono Lake is an ancient lake, over 1 million years old. Definitely worth a stop if you’re up near Mammoth.
We have a lot planned for this winter and have been overrun with plotting out our travels. My personal goal is to ski 101+ days this season while traveling. It didn’t seem like THAT much of a task until I finally mapped out all the days and places I wanted to go. When you take driving and traveling into consideration, 101 days is actually a pretty aggressive goal. So far, all of our skiing has been mostly restricted to Lake Tahoe, but we’ve got a few trips coming up to make our rounds to those below in no particular order, but we’re not limiting ourselves to these resorts either:
- Northstar
- Squaw Valley
- Mount Bachelor
- Mount Baker
- Whistler/Blackcomb
- Revelstoke
- Big White
- Kicking Horse
- Panorama
- Lake Louise
- Norquay
- Sunshine Village
- Fernie
- Big Sky
- Grand Targhee
- Jackson Hole
- Park City
- Deer Valley
- The Canyons
- Alta
- Snowbird
- Powder Mountain
- Brian Head
- Telluride
- Breckenridge
- Beaver Creek
- Vail
- Arapahoe Basin
- Keystone
- Aspen/Snowmass
- Niseko United
- Rusutsu
So…if you’re planning on skiing this season, let us know which weekend and hopefully we can meet up!
