Summit View, Clouds Rolling In
Black and white summit view late in the day with the next set of clouds rolling in and another storm on the way. It truly feels like spring now, but winter stuck around in the Sierra into spring. “Miracle March” was exactly what our snowpack needed and it provided some great riding/skiing conditions throughout the…

Spring Storm, Clouds Lifting
Clouds opening up and the lake coming into view in the distance at the tail end of a spring storm. I have a feeling this was my last true winter conditions ski tour of the season. Not quite a deep powder day, but almost, and plenty of coverage for April. Lake Tahoe Basin. April 2024.

Lake Tahoe Basin overnight ski/splitboard tour to Middle Velma Lake and up Phipps Peak (9,234 ft) during spring-like conditions in February 2022.

Calm Before the Storm
Calm before the storm … it truly felt like spring the past few days with minimal wind and warm daytime temps. These were some of the views I enjoyed while touring around with Echo. The snow was soft and wanting to transition into corn, but did not quite get there. Still, I enjoyed some nice turns that…

Looking towards the Crystal Range just Before Sunset
Yesterday’s view of the Crystal Range (Desolation Wilderness) in the distance before riding back down at sunset. The wind was fairly insignificant in north facing trees until I reached this exposed spot at the summit where I took this photo from. Once there I could really feel the next storm trying to make it’s way up…

Low Tide Husky Skijor w/ Echo and Yuba (GoPro 11 Mini)
It doesn’t take a lot of snow for these guys to have a good time. Fortunately, we have a couple of much needed storms on the way that should help start to turn things around this winter in terms of our snowpack in the Sierra. But, up until this point, our snowpack has been dismal and very…
